"As to whether any Unitarian, or anyone else, is a Christian is really for that person to decide. From the earliest days of the Church there have been many different ideas about what being a Christian means."

 

So writes Rev Cliff Reed in his book "What do Unitarians believe?" 

The problem with some Christian Churches is that their understanding is that there is only one way of being a Christian (their way), and only one way of believing and having faith. That is not the position of a Unitarian. 

For us faith is a uniquely personal thing and as diverse as humankind.

For those Unitarians, and there are many, who see themselves as Christians, then their perspective is likely to be described as free-thinking, liberal or progressive.

Here are listed a number of links to show that Unitarians and progressive Christians in all denominations share many similarities in understanding and a Unitarian Congregation is, maybe, a natural home for all who believe in freedom of thought and practice in matters of faith.
