Welcome to the archive of Social Justice Minutes that have been presented during the 11am Sunday Service at First Unitarian, Omaha.

Acting with compassion is not doing good because we think we ought to. It is being drawn to action by heart-felt passion. It is giving ourselves into what we are doing, being present in the moment — no matter how difficult, sad or even boring it feels, no mater how much it demands. It is acting from our deepest understanding of what life is, listing intently for the skillful means in each situation, and not compromising the truth. It is working with others in a selfless way, in a spirit of mutual respect.
