"Learn here why definitions of the sacred in Unitarian Universalist churches are attracting ever larger and ever more grateful and reverent congregations every Sunday.” -Kurt Vonnegut
“Only a free faith, a chosen faith, offers the kind of engagement that wakes us up to ourselves and makes us willing to risk what we have for what we could become. This splendid book invites us to consider just such a faith.” -Marilyn Sewell
“This is simply superb. I know of nothing comparable to it. The old-timer as well as the ‘come-outer’ will find [A] Chosen Faith irresistible. It will be a gift for everyone, for the minister, for the laity, for theological students. Engaging, seductive, infectious. -James Luther Adams
