Sean Neil-Barron* of Foothills UU preaching), 7/28 Losing Heart. Book discussion: TODAY 11 a.m. *Rev. Sean dreams of a time when progressive people of faith are as equipped to impact society as our conservative siblings.

Sean was born on Treaty 7 land in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and comes to Foothills after four years in New England. He is a self-proclaimed nerd — particularly about history, current politics, science, and Star Wars.
