Soul Power - Can Ordinary People Live Extraordinary Lives?

Can ordinary people live extraordinary lives? Intern minister at All Soul's Church in Tulsa, OK, Jeremy Elliott, says they can, have, and will in the future if they live deliberately and get in touch with their "Soul Power." Jeremy delivered a wonderful sermon on February 24, 2008 in Tulsa and it can be listened to on-line or downloaded from the Digg web site by clicking here.

Here is a brief description from the Digg web site:

The Rev. Dr. Rebecca Parker, President of Starr King School for the Ministry,
teaches that the history of Unitarianism and Universalism in America has been a
history of unleashed soul power. From our founding, we have endeavored to
cultivate all of the faculties of the soul to liberate, nurture, and heal our
world. The Rev. Dr. William Ellery Channing spoke of the importance of
âunfoldingâ these powers to find our salvation. Henry David Thoreau challenged
humanity to âlive life deliberatelyâ to be truly alive to the world.

This Sunday, we will explore and celebrate the lineages of ordinary
prophets of liberal religion who shaped the movement we have inherited. How
might we offer the powers of our souls to change the world?
