The Practice of Presence:  Mapping The Sacredness of Body and Mind in the Present Moment.

Rev. Derail Holcomb [he/him]

During this sermon, we will share the importance of mindfulness, active listening, and being present with others and ourselves. Through our discourse, we will share stories of people who embrace their circumstances, however challenging.

Dr. Brene Brown’s Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience is recommended reading for this sermon discussion.

Rev. Holcomb upbringing at a Pentecostal/Baptist church opened a broad range of legalistic beliefs that led his desire to seek scriptural understanding. In 2011, he attended Barry University in Miami, FL, and graduated with a BA in Public Administration. In May of 2019, he graduated with a Masters of Divinity and a Graduate Certificate in Urban Ministry. His accomplishments have played a large part in preparing him for the journey along the Unitarian Universalist path.
