Sermon

You are perfect the way you are … and you could use a little improvement,” writes Japanese Zen teacher Shunryu Suzuki. This sermon, given at the University Unitarian Church of Seattle, WA on July 9, 2023, explores our interior sense of being both judged and accepted. (This video recording of the sermon is gratefully used with their permission.)

Rev. Bruce Bode is a retired UU Minister.
