Please forgive our need to read quite a bit  of what we will say to you today.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">We have reflected much over the years  on this church, this congregation, this religion called Unitarian  Universalism.\u00a0  Having been raised without a religious tradition, this church is the  only one I\u2019ve ever known, so it\u2019s all new to me.\u00a0 We found this church  in 1991 because we wanted someone to marry us, but leaving it at just  that felt wrong.\u00a0 We needed to make a connection here, and we did \u2013  we made good friends and have left sermons feeling recharged for the  week ahead. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale:<\/strong> I grew up attending an  Irish Catholic church in Cedar Falls, Iowa.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t connect strongly  with the faith or rituals of my parents, and came to hate being forced  to attend.\u00a0 Millions of people have gained purpose and direction from  that religion.\u00a0 But, I came away as a teen bitter and\u2014except for my  love of a good hymn\u2014feeling like I had escaped something unpleasant.\u00a0  When we started coming here in \u201991, I overcame my childhood resentment  with a bargain.\u00a0 I would be OK attending church if I: A. Don\u2019t have  to dress up \u2013and\u2014 B.\u00a0 Don\u2019t have to \u201cremember the Sabbath day  and keep it holy.\u201d I could miss a week or two. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> And for a while, that  was all we needed\u2014inspiring sermons, a casual dress code and no truancy  policy. But, our family\u2019s participation in the life of this church  has also really waxed and waned, waned and waxed over these last 18  years.\u00a0 Some years, we maybe came to service once a month. The old  bargain  didn\u2019t make our church life meaningful by itself.\u00a0 But seeing that  you all accepted our approach made this a safe spiritual environment  for us.\u00a0 In the vocabulary of logic, this was a necessary condition of  our growth, but not a sufficient one. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale:<\/strong> We sometimes fell back  on that basic bargain, but over time both our involvement and our  unconscious  expectations grew. Over the years we have taught in summer camps,  chaired  the Social Action Committee, helped form an Amnesty International group,   served on the Board of Trustees and worked on the church\u2019s computer  network.\u00a0 My resentment of religion faded, and we enjoyed most of our  church activities. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">Without thinking about it, though, our  expectations grew: for a cleaner RE wing, for support of our personal  causes, for a well-oiled volunteer process, and the like.\u00a0 So, our  minimum  requirements for church life expanded, but I can\u2019t say that we ever  spelled out the new bargains clearly, even to ourselves.\u00a0 At the same  time, we often didn&#8217;t know what the church and its members expected  of us, and so we weren&#8217;t always very engaged. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> Looking back, the  inconsistency  of our attendance seems strange to me.\u00a0 I guess there were reasons why  we didn\u2019t come much some years: newborns, new houses, new jobs. So,  while I think an expressed tolerance and acceptance drew us to this  place, the absence of a request for commitment kept us from making one.  Asking for a commitment would have meant this church would have to know  itself, and be able to describe that to us.\u00a0 And then tell us what our  role, as church members, would be.\u00a0 Because to ask us to figure out what   this place meant to us was waayy too much work, I mean that\u2019s just  waayy too many choices. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">Does that mean we were lazy? Does that  mean we were not good UU material? I mean, this is all about everyone  finding their own truths, right? I think it\u2019s a lot to ask someone  new to our church to do on their own, though. I mean, it&#8217;s just the  kind of work you join a church to do together with others&#8211;developing  relationships and, dare I say, some rules. I am one of those who work  better with constraints than without, and I wonder if that doesn\u2019t  have something to do with it. I mentioned this to my friend Natalie,  and she talked about how some of the most creative costumes she\u2019d  ever seen were for the black and white ball in San Francisco.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">Multiple choices tend to stymie me,  and I don\u2019t think I am alone in this.\u00a0 Dr. Barry Schwartz, in his book,  \u201cThe Paradox of Choice, Why More Is Less\u201d argues that too many choices  can erode our psychological well being. He cites a study where shoppers  will buy more jam when offered fewer varieties. He argues that after  thousands of years working towards the simplification of providing for  the necessities of life, the trend is reversing back to foraging  behavior,  as we are forced to sift for ourselves through more and more options  in every aspect of life. I know that after shopping exclusively at  little  Wheatsville for a while, entering an HEB can feel like climbing Mt.  Everest. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale:<\/strong> Fast forward to February  of 2006, when our minister delivered the only sermon we\u2019ve ever walked  out of, about the responsibility for the 9\/11 attacks.\u00a0\u00a0 The experience  helped reveal hidden assumptions and expectations we had.\u00a0 And,  understanding  those new expectations matters more to us now than what was said, or  how it made us feel.\u00a0 We had made new bargains and had new, necessary  conditions for our church life.\u00a0 We had strong expectations that weren&#8217;t   being met, about what other church members believed or would accept. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">I have been an alcoholic in recovery  for nearly my whole adult life\u2014I spent my 20<sup>th<\/sup> birthday  in rehab.\u00a0 The lessons of sobriety have shaped my whole life, including  church.\u00a0 I have been taught that, when I have resentments, it helps to  look relentlessly at my own part in the matter.\u00a0 This serves two main  purposes, first to take the focus off the offender, since I&#8217;m never  going to change them.\u00a0 Second, it helps me see where\u2014to quote recovery  literature\u2014I\u2019ve made decisions based on self which later put me  in a position to be hurt. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> After 2006 and through  the dismissal to this year, we have thought a lot about our role in  the hardship we now face together.\u00a0\u00a0 In the example of the 9\/11 sermon,  Dale and I found we had developed unspoken assumptions about how others  must support us, about the type of sanctuary you were required to  maintain  for us here.\u00a0 We had built the walls of our sanctuary well inside the  walls of the church, and left a lot that we didn&#8217;t like outside those  walls.\u00a0 We both feel now that for our church to heal, we must come to  see not just a part of the church as our sanctuary, but the whole church   body.\u00a0 Not doing so sets us up for disillusionment. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">For example, if you are very in touch  with the music program, or the RE program, or the Forum program, and  that changes suddenly and drasticly, will you still find peace of mind  and sanctuary here?\u00a0 We were convinced that we personally needed to  expand  our concept of sanctuary, but we weren&#8217;t sure how to accomplish that.\u00a0  So, we were both relieved and excited when Janet started emphasizing  covenant, especially developing something like a \u201ccovenant of right  relation\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0 It seemed to provide an opportunity for us to look at our  relationship to the church as a whole. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale: <\/strong> To us, it seems like  creating  a good covenant is a lot like deciding on how to play certain games  among friends.\u00a0\u00a0 Preparing to play a game might start with months of  training  for a marathon, or a casual invitation to play cards.\u00a0 Just so, our  activities  at church might be well-planned or impulsive.\u00a0 In each case, though,  a lot about what happens and how we experience it depends on the rules  of the game.\u00a0 The rules might all be agreed and well-known ahead of  time,  as with the marathon.\u00a0 Or, they might be last-minute, the way kids often   make up new rules for each backyard game.\u00a0 More likely, there are some  of each: \u201cstandard\u201d rules and \u201chouse\u201d rules. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">Standard rules to tell us things like  which of the 100\u2019s of card games we\u2019re playing with that same old  deck.\u00a0 And House rules to fit the game to the players or circumstance.\u00a0\u00a0   Maybe we have younger or inexperienced players that need a break, or  less than the usual time to play, or maybe we just think <em>our<\/em> rules will be more fun, just as we might spice up an old recipe.\u00a0 If  we don\u2019t agree on some rules, though, can we even play a game together?\u00a0   Or, are we just in the same place at the same time?\u00a0 Think of that tense   feeling we all know from childhood, when a player tries to change the  rules to his or her favor in the middle of the game. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> Our family has always  enjoyed playing games together.\u00a0 In BK times, before kids, we had a lot  of fun playing the video game Myst with our friends Karen and Michael,  Rod and Carol.\u00a0 We also had way too much fun with a free CD of Boggle  that we got off a box of Cheerios. (Geeks that we are.) The girls  started  out on these cooperative board games where no one actually loses.\u00a0  Harvest  Time! Let\u2019s all help each other bring in our crops!\u00a0 But there\u2019s  one thing we always do, and that\u2019s set up some house rules.\u00a0 Do-overs  might be allowed.\u00a0 You can start your turn <em>before<\/em> amassing 30  points.\u00a0 Sometimes there are very strict time limits on (some player&#8217;s)  turns!\u00a0 Or, you can have all the time you want. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale: <\/strong> Amazingly, as you heard  in the reading, you don\u2019t need to know the goal to start playing the  card game\u00a0Fluxx! The goal comes in somewhere along the way, and often  changes.\u00a0 What makes it playable is that people sit down together and  agree on a single rule, just to start with.\u00a0 People walked in the door  of this church.\u00a0 It\u2019s reasonable for a person to first experience this  sanctuary and our services when they start coming here.\u00a0 But it\u2019s a  church,we are the First Unitarian Universalist <strong><em>Church <\/em><\/strong> of Austin, so we don\u2019t think of this place as a lecture hall.\u00a0 It is  a sacred space, for inspiration, for meditation, for transformation.  And much of that transformation happens in the relationships between  each other, as a people sitting here together, sharing life. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> I don\u2019t think I was  looking for spiritual growth, really, when I started coming here. I  was just looking for a group of people who shared my beliefs, so I could   feel good and comfortable about having those beliefs. I was tired of  being the outsider, the one who isn\u2019t like everyone else.\u00a0 At 6\u20192\u201d,  as a lifelong vegetarian, as a liberal in Texas, I\u2019ve been in the  minority often enough.\u00a0 Being different was something I long had turned  into a strength and used as a defense mechanism. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">It served me well for quite a long time,   but ultimately it was an easy out, with no opportunity for change.\u00a0 My  spiritual journey now is to be the best person I can be, while  contributing  to something bigger than myself.\u00a0 Something that is meaningful,  uplifting,  and a catalyst for good. So, I make a commitment to this community.\u00a0  But to adhere to a commitment you make to other people is hard work,  and you have to work at it.\u00a0 It is not easy, but from that hard work  comes growth. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale:<\/strong> To my mind, the most  important  rules for a covenant of right relation are the most minimal.\u00a0 What  standard  of behavior can I, on my worst day, still commit to uphold.\u00a0 If some  morning I didn&#8217;t have time for breakfast, and I just found out a loved  one was ill, and my shoes don\u2019t fit right and my car is acting up  and I\u2019m late to church and you stop me in the hall to ask me about  a problem with a church computer.\u00a0 <strong>Then<\/strong>, what behavior should  I tell you to expect of me?\u00a0\u00a0 That minimum standard of behavior says:\u00a0  if I don\u2019t meet even this, you are right to be concerned for me, and  it is OK to be upset with me.\u00a0\u00a0 You should expect better, and you <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">can<\/span> and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">should<\/span> help me to do better.\u00a0\u00a0 I may not be pleasantly  receptive  to your correction, but the heart of the covenant is that, even on those   occasions where I miss the mark, I commit to stay engaged while I try  to get my behavior back in line. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> When you are in  community  with other people, when you&#8217;ve shared a covenant on how to behave, the  hardest thing is to call someone on not honoring it.\u00a0 The fact that we  don&#8217;t have a covenant yet makes it even harder, since we don&#8217;t even  know if we agree on what&#8217;s acceptable.\u00a0 I experienced this just  recently.  I had an exchange with someone here at church that made me feel  uncomfortable  and maybe even a little bit threatened. This person spoke very  judgingly,  told me I was wrong, raised her voice, and seemed very irritated and  exasperated with me.\u00a0 I remained calm, and restated my point of view,  but ultimately did not let this person know how she was making me feel.  I then turned around and talked to someone else about had happened! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"> Fortunately, my confidant gently let  me know that my silence only allowed this person to think that the way  she treated me was ok.\u00a0 And on top of that, I was developing a negative  opinion of this person without giving her any chance to explain herself.   So, while I upheld a personal commitment to be polite, I also have the  harder job of standing up for that value with someone who may not share  it. This is the very difficult part of living honestly with other  people,  of being in community.\u00a0 But, this experience would have been easier for  me if I had known that we both agreed to a covenant, as members of this  church, to be caring toward one another. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">A covenant of right relation, or some  agreed-upon house rules, allows us to leave our suspicions at the door,  and have meaningful experiences in an environment that may strain or  break our expectations about things that matter to us.\u00a0 Having that  commitment  to each other about a minimum standard of my own behavior and yours,  even helps me tolerate situations where the commitment is breached,  because we have a standard to get back to that is a community standard  that we can remind each other of.\u00a0 Bringing this out of the realm of  the implicit helps expose assumptions we have about &#8220;normal&#8221;  or &#8220;acceptable&#8221; behavior.\u00a0 And I make the promise here and  now, before you all, that I will get up the nerve to speak to this  person! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale: <\/strong> And, just to give you an idea of how disciplined we were in preparing  for this sermon, a very timely article came in <em>yesterday&#8217;s<\/em> UU  World magazine.\u00a0 Written by a consultant with the Alban Institute, Dan  Hotchkiss, it talks about covenant, mission, and vision.\u00a0 When  discussing  who the board of a church must serve, he says they must serve, quote,  &#8220;<em>the congregation&#8217;s mission, the covenant the congregation has  set its heart to and the piece of the Divine Spirit that belongs to  it.&#8221; <\/em>He then goes on to ask and what is the mission?\u00a0<em> &#8220;The  great management consultant Peter Drucker wrote that the core product  of all social-sector organizations is &#8220;a changed human being.&#8221;  A congregation&#8217;s mission is its unique answer to the question, &#8220;Whose  lives do we intend to change and in what way?&#8221; &#8230;. Growth, expanding  budgets, building programs, and such trappings of success matter only  if they reflect positive transformation in the lives of the people  touched  by the congregation&#8217;s work,&#8221; <\/em> unquote. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Corinna:<\/strong> You know, what we have  here is such an incredible opportunity.\u00a0 There are not many chances for  a group of people to get together and determine for themselves how they  want to be with another.\u00a0 Like the children in Roxaboxen found, this  is a freedom.\u00a0 But it won\u2019t happen; we can\u2019t be healthy here, unless  we are willing to be vulnerable and say that we\u2019re not perfect and  would like to change.We must start with ourselves.\u00a0 And then dare to  think that we might know what we would like to be, and that with each  other\u2019s help and love, we can get there. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\"><strong>Dale:<\/strong> In the meantime, come play  some games with us!
