About this sermon
“Love calls us to ask a ubiquitous question that happens across all the world's major religions: What does my neighbor need?” In this monologue, Rev. Jacqui Lewis reflects on how love—real, active, justice-rooted love—liberates. Moving through what she calls a "freedom arc" from Juneteenth to Pride to Independence Day, she challenges listeners to see love not as sentiment, but as a call to action. Drawing on faith, history, and lived experience, Jacqui names the discomfort, courage, and intersectionality required to truly love our neighbors. Whether confronting injustice within systems or at the family dinner table, this episode is a bold reminder that love is both our ethic and our path to collective freedom. Resources: • Check out Rev.
