Dr. Thomas Shepherd rediscovers Unity co-founder Charles Fillmore's zeal for new ideas-especially Mr. Fillmore's insistence that Unity students think for themselves and prove Unity principles in everyday living.

But don't be surprised to hear from priests, ministers, rabbis, Buddhist monks or the occasional Wiccan priestess. Let's Talk About It is your window to a new world of possibilities in contemporary theology, religious insight and social action through ecumenical and interfaith dialogue.
