There isn’t really a specifically Unitarian Universalist custom to the way we treat the word “god” — as we are a creedless denomination, these things are left up to individuals in the way that they best fit that person’s spiritual language. I personally do not capitalize it, and neither did the writer of this piece, but many others do. Others don’t use that particular word at all, in favor of spirit or source or creator, also with variants in capitalization.

For the purpose of this blog, I reproduce writings as they were first published — so if a writers uses “God,” that is how I will print it. Rev. Jensen did not capitalize, so that’s how I left it.

Thanks for asking!

I’d love to hear others’ takes on this word — to capitalize, or not to capitalize?
