Below is a list of sermons that were preached at Marsh Chapel, Boston University School of Theology, in the summer of 2015, on the theme of Beloved Community. Choose one or more of these sermons to listen to (by yourself or, even better, with your women's ministry group). Reflect in your journal or in discussion together about what you've heard in the sermon. What did you agree with? Disagree with? Has it helped you understand the idea of beloved community differently, or more fully? If so, in what way?
