Prior to his death in 2009, Forrest Church was the senior minister of the famous All Souls Unitarian-Universalist Church in New York City. He was also the son of a former Democratic senator from Idaho who sought the nomination of his party for the presidency of the United States in 1976. Forrest Church had an amazing gift with words. For example, the title of one of his books was God and Other Famous Liberals. I always wished I could have thought of that title before he did! He also once said: “God is not God’s name. God is our name for that which is greater than all and yet present in each.”*
