UBFism is the new religion invented by Chang-Woo (Samuel) Lee and Sarah Barry in 1961. It is practiced exclusively by University Bible Fellowship. The religion has not been comprehensively documented or examined. The religion has been passed on by oral tradition until now.

This new religion is a sort of hyper evangelicalism mixed with Buddhist and Confucian values, and bound by an ideology of sacrifice. UBFism is a shepherding system, where each member, called a sheep, has an appointed lifelong moral supervisor, called a shepherd. I have identified nine components of this religious system.

UBF Doctrine -- "hyper evangelical Confucianism"
UBF Dogma -- "kingdom of priests and holy nation" (KOPAHN)
UBF Insider Language -- "sheep-talk"
UBF Lifestyle -- "worldly monasticism"
UBF Persuasion -- "anointed sacrificial-ism"
UBF Shepherd Training Model -- "hamster wheel"
UBF Spiritual Heritage -- "Lee-ism"
UBF Strategy -- "Three Kingdoms"
UBF Value System -- "Barry-ism"
