Since Unitarian Universalists have no creed, UUs often struggle with what it is that binds us together – what is it that makes us UUs? Some scholars respond to this question with, “covenant.” (One way of describing covenant is, “walking together in love.”) Our covenantal tradition is what links us to our forebears and to each other. What is it to walk together in love? What does it have to do with living with authenticity, integrity, joy, and resolve? How might it nourish us and inform how we live our lives?

The Rev. Tom Bozeman grew up UU in the Connecticut River Valley, attended the Evergreen State College and the Starr King School For The Ministry, and, after serving a few congregations in Massachusetts, is delighted to be back near the Salish Sea. He is the minister of the Evergreen UU Fellowship in Marysville.
