Dr. Marlin Lavanhar emphasizes the importance of embracing one's authentic self in a world that often pressures individuals to conform to others' expectations. Through the African folktale of Anansi the Spider, we discuss how everyone has unique gifts that can contribute to a greater purpose. The message calls on individuals to fully participate in their communities by being true to themselves. It underscores the idea that everyone, regardless of their role or resources, has a significant part to play in creating a more inclusive, caring, and transformative community.

'HEAVEN ON EARTH' - Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar
The message was delivered on Sunday, October 20, 2024, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar, Senior Minister. DESCRIPTION: This service explores the theme of unity in diversity and the role of religion in fostering love and healing in the world. Using the story of the Tower of Babel, Marlin illustrates how the focus of religion should be on creating a heaven-like experience on Earth. Instead of worrying about the afterlife, we are called to address the real "hells" of this world—poverty, injustice, and suffering—by being agents of love, compassion, and unity. The service emphasizes the need for religious communities to grow in soulfulness, love, and generosity, not just in their faith, but in their actions toward others.
