 Unicorn Style Reverend Jon will be on hiatus for the next couple of weeks. I am performing my first Church of Friend Wedding! For real! In the interim, you can read my pop-culture related guest posts on Parishioner Marla’s blog Danny Isn’t Here.
In this sermon I explore the anger that is the result of riding public transportation and offer solutions to cope with it. Songs: Seven by Fever Ray, CSS remix See no evil by Television Boys of summer by Don Henley You can go to Towleroad.com and download a free mp3 of the CSS remix of the Fever Ray track.
In this sermon, I discuss the way that movie and TV dialogue has infected the way we speak to one another. Specifically the way we conduct our relationships and the way we view honesty. Playlist: She’s so fly (I’m so high) by Grindmode Ticket to the moon by Electric Light Orchestra Walking on a dream by Empire of the Sun
In this sermon I explore my issues with my own snobbery, the snobbery of others, and the intersection of being a snob and making fun of people. I also ask the question: Is making fun of someone a victimless crime? Playlist: Take me to your heart by Eurythmics Girlfriend is better by Talking Heads Judgment Hour by The Tear Garden Sermon for Sunday August 30th, 2009. In this sermon, I discuss the infamous Pepsi Harrier jet commercial and how it leads to the idea of protecting the naive from information that can be misinterpreted. Is there any value in naivete? Playlist: Many shades of black by Adele Treason by The Teardrop Explodes This must be the place (Naive melody) by Talking Heads **Correction, I got the name of the plaintiff wrong in the Harrier jet case, his name is John Leonard, not Leonardo. Oops!** Wikipedia article on the case.
In this sermon I discuss the role that crisis plays in our lives, the constancy of crisis, and the connection to the human need for narrative. Playlist: Lay my love by Brian Eno and John Cale Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone by Blondie Shelter from the storm by Bob Dylan

Sermon for Sunday, August 8, 2009 In this sermon I discuss the ubiquity of hating one’s job, and try to make it better by explaining how the pain of work is necessary to make the pleasure of vacation more acute. Playlist: Diamanadia by Souley Kante Medo Wiase by J.A. Adofo and City Boys International Working for the Weekend by Loverboy |
