Joseph Bednarik presents Searching for Free and Responsible
As Unitarian Universalists, our Fourth Principle calls us to "a free and responsible search for truth and meaning." While this sounds noble and just, what does "free and responsible" look like when put into practice--especially within out current environment of partisan politics, so-called "culture wars," media silos, and passionate calls for social justice. Next Sunday we gather, in a place called "sanctuary," to search together--freely and responsibly.

Joseph Bednarik is the Co-Publisher at Copper Canyon Press, a nonprofit publisher dedicated to poetry. He studied philosophy at Haverford College and speaks regularly at UU congregations throughout the Puget Sound region.
