In a world of seemingly unending war, fear, division, corruption, and exhaustion, where can we turn for rest? This sermon invites us to reimagine the familiar words of Psalm 23— placed in conversation with Native American poetry— as a radical vision for personal and collective rest. Today’s preacher is Katie Kuntz-Wineland. Katie is a former Student Minister of NUUC, where she served in 2015-2016. She earned her MDiv at Methodist Theological School in Ohio, where she is currently pursuing a second master’s in Christian Ethics. For eight years, she has served in nonprofit ministry at Bittersweet Farms, a nonprofit supporting autistic adults. In addition to her work at Bittersweet, Katie began a new role this summer as a Regional Justice Coordinator with the statewide office of the United Methodist Church. Katie is pursuing ordination in the United Methodist Church, which is finally possible for her and other LGBTQ+ people. She and her wife, Beth, live in Toledo, Ohio.
