Title of Opportunity: Director of Religious Exploration
LIBERAL RELIGIOUS EDUCATORS ASSOCIATION · Oklahoma City, OK · Yesterday
OTHRFull-time
Here’s the reformatted job posting (though this appears to be a church event page, not a job posting—so I’ve structured the *substantive content* as if it were a role description for clarity, focusing on the **Minister’s Reading Group** and **Change for Change Partnership** as the two primary "opportunities" described):
First Unitarian Church of Oklahoma City invites the community to engage in learning, reflection, and service through the following programs.
Minister’s Reading Group
Join Rev. Kent and fellow congregants for monthly book discussions exploring progressive theology, social justice, and interfaith dialogue. Meetings are held in the Eddy Room from 6:30–8:00 pm. Upcoming sessions:
- July 30: American Struggle: Democracy, Dissent, and the Pursuit of a More Perfect Union (Jon Meacham anthology).
- August 27: A House of Hope: The Promise of Progressive Religion by John Buehrens & Rebecca Ann Parker. The book examines how liberal religious traditions—particularly Unitarian Universalism—center love, justice, and human dignity over dogma.
- September 24: The Dignity of Difference: How to Avoid the Clash of Civilizations by Jonathan Sacks. Sacks argues for celebrating diversity as a path to mutual respect, countering the "clash of civilizations" narrative.
For details, contact Rev. Kent at kdoss@1uc.org.
