About Jenkin Lloyd Jones

Jenkin Lloyd Jones was a prominent American Unitarian minister. He founded All Souls Unitarian Church in Chicago, Illinois, as well as its community outreach organization, the Abraham Lincoln Centre. He was a founder and long-time editor of Unity, a liberal religious magazine. He tried to move Unitarianism away from a strictly Christian focus, aligning himself with a group of radical Midwestern ministers known as the "Unity Men" who stressed a creedless "ethical basis" as the common element for churches. At the end of his life, Jones was an outspoken pacifist opposed to U.S. involvement in World War I.
