(Valparaiso, Indiana) - Rev. Dr. George Cairns of Chesterton, Indiana delivers Sunday homily entitled “The Cost and Joy of Discipleship” on May 3, 2009 at the Union Community Church in Valparaiso, Indiana.
The homilies on Celtic Christianity take a look at several topics including the European roots of the Celts (primarily Scotland and Ireland) and how Earth-based cultures can impact the future of civilization including actively protecting the environment, respecting fellow humans, different cultures and nature.
Cairns is working closely on several social fronts with Rev. Gregory Jones, pastor of the Union Community Church & Adjunct Assistant Professor of Theology at Valparaiso University.
