Emergence: The Futures We Can’t Yet Imagine

The 2025 Lawrence Lecture Conference “Emergence: The Futures We Can’t Yet Imagine,” will host keynote speaker Dr. Ruha Benjamin, on April 18-19, 2025. The keynote address will be livestreamed. “Emergence” is a transformative conference that seeks to answer the question: how do we nurture spiritual exploration and activation in the face of catastrophe? It is part of UUCB’s Lawrence Lecture Series, which aims to establish a public forum for inquiry into the nature and relevancy of religion (either institutionally, philosophically, or as an ethical force) in a world of accelerating technological and social change, as well as sharpening human crisis and conflicting social values. The conference will start on Friday evening on April 18 with a sunset worship service and dinner. Saturday April 19 will continue with breakfast, followed by a presentation and dialogue with keynote speaker Ruha Benjamin. Lunch will feature a simple, delicious meal sourced from after-market foods gleaned from farms and specialty food stores (mostly). Afternoon workshops and a closing worship will weave it all together.
