What does it mean to be a Unitarian? In this sermon from our Unitarian Universalism 101 series, Rev. T. J. Fitzgerald explains the history and heart of Unitarianism in simple, practical terms. He shares the story of the hymn By the River, the debates at the Council of Nicaea, and why Unitarians believe that God is One and God is Love.

This message also looks at what Unitarian Universalism means today: holding different ideas at once, letting go of perfectionism, standing up for justice, and creating a community built on love and acceptance. If you are curious about faith that welcomes questions, values freedom of belief, and embraces diversity, this introduction is for you.
