The space and its history is pretty incredible to start with which makes me really happy that this spiritual community has found its permanent home in Ballard making this place as good as it gets, hence the five stars. I can't always make it every Sunday but I have definitely found my primary spiritual home. The message, the music and the food afterwards is a winning combination. I'll keep coming back for second and third helping for sure. Well done Amazing Grace Spiritual Center.

This church is welcoming, diverse, and truly ecumenical/multi-faith. It's refreshing and…read moreenlightening to always be learning from various spiritual traditions, rather than being told what to believe or how to live. Pastor Eric always has something thought-provoking, inspirational, original, and hilarious to share, and the other speakers I've heard there have been stellar as well. The music is contemporary and you never quite know what to expect, including a stellar gospel choir that sings on occasion. Now that the church is in it's new Ballard home, all kinds of groups, classes, and community involvement is ramping up. My only complaint is that I wish the church was closer to where I live!

I am currently not a member of your church, but my father went to Bible College there and I went…read morewith him as a child, often. I learned to love this church, and it was in this church that I really learned to Love the Lord. Unfortunately, even though you are a Bible believing, God preaching church, when it comes to supporting your members, you are sorely lacking. You see, my best friend IS a member of this church, and her mother recently passed away. She is exhausted after the long illness her mother had, and she was the primary caregiver, night and day. What I don't understand, is why, when she reached out to the Women's Pastor for support the only response was "I'll pray for you". What has happened to the church in this day and age? The only person who has offered any kind of support, and even a meal is a neighbor who is NOT a Christian. Come on! We are children of the Most HIgh GOD!! We are supposed to be supporting our fellow Christians! Not just with "I'll pray for you", but how about a meal? How about a cup of coffee? My friend is lonely, she is tired, she is spiritually drained and she is and has been waiting for HER church to reach out to her! If I was able to be there for her in person, I would be at the drop of a hat. But unfortunately all I can do is give her my support night and day via text and phone calls. I love this woman! She has devoted herself to her church, her family and most of all to the Lord. Is it too much to ask for someone who says that they care to actually care? Take her a meal, offer her a moment of your time to chat in person. She is a wonderful woman of the Lord, and she has been dumped on for a long time. Come on Church!! Rise up and support your members, and always keep this at the very top of your mind,,,,,,, What would Jesus do??? Thank you for hearing me.... My friends best friend

I grew up in the evangelical Christian faith, but was so glad when I discovered Unitarian Universalism when I left the Christian faith. Granted there are Christians that attend WSUU, but it is not specially a Christian church. We have people from all walks of life, including atheists and humanists like myself. Unitarian Universalists are brave, curious and compassionate thinkers and doers. We create spirituality and community beyond boundaries, working for more justice and more love in our own lives and in the world. Unitarian Universalism is grounded in the humanistic teachings of the world's religions. Our spirituality is unbounded, drawing from scripture and science, nature and philosophy, personal experience and ancient tradition. If you are looking for a wonderful community to be a part of, I highly encourage you to visit WSUU. Come as you are, and stand on the side of love!

The people are diverse as they are and really working on increasing their consciousness in regards to race in particular. UU's in general in case you are unfamiliar do not have a set of things that they believe, but rather a covenant of 7 principles, one of which is support each other in a free and independent search for meaning and truth (paraphrasing). I love it! You might as well!

Trinity is an amazing worship community which exemplifies all the best in the Episcopal Church. Many of us "fled" here after bad experiences elsewhere, and found both welcome and challenge. Trinity means community. Being disabled, getting here has seemed difficult, but every step has been rewarded by the warm and generous "welcome home" Trinity gives. This is community, and I find I can't live fully without it. At Trinity you do not need to leave your brain at the door. You can wonder, be uncertain, even doubt. But you can also be silent here, and know God, and worship as community and as an individual. In the BBC series The Ascent of Man, Professor Brownowski, standing with his feet in the pond where ashes were dumped from the crematorium at Auschwitz, said "This is what comes of too much certainty." We live surrounded by certainty: certainty that this group is evil, that that religion or party has the only answers, that this interpretation is the one true one. Trinity doesn't do this. Peter Abelard said, "By Doubting We Come To Question, And By Questioning, We Perceive The Truth." If we are not so confident of The Truth as Abelard was, in the 21st century we can hope thoughtful people are learning to be wary of too much certainty. But Trinity expects only that we that we are all on a quest to discover what God means to each of us, in our different ways and with our different experiences of life.

The interior is equally pared down and geometric, but the exposed timber makes for a warmer "Northwest" ambience. I'm not sure how this is conducive to a meditative, if not religious or spiritual experience (there is a walking path "maze" in the small adjacent grounds facing 1st Avenue N, exposed to traffic noise from three close-by streets). I've been tempted to attend a Sunday service but have only been here for a recital as well as historical tour. The older building annex is even more a vestige.
