opening words
Rasor, Rev PaulLiberal theology is not for the faint of heart. It points us in a general direction without telling us the specific destination. It refuses to make our commitments for us, but holds us accountable to the commitments we make. . . . It invites us to live with ambiguity without giving in to facile compromise; to engage in dialogue without trying to control the conversation; to be open to change without accepting change too casually; to take commitment seriously but not blindly; to be engaged in the culture without succumbing to the culture's values."
-THE REV. DR. PAUL RASOR
Director of the Center for the Study of Religious Freedom at Virginia Wesleyan College and author of Faith Without Certainty: Liberal Theology in the Twenty-first Century (Skinner House 2005), from his lecture at the 2005 General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations.
