Here's what real people have to say about what 'Progressive Christianity' means to them:
Progressive Christianity encourages a spirituality that offers maturity, depth, and wisdom. It invites compassion.
One who does not quote Biblical chapters and verses, but who tries to live Christ’s message of compassion and justice.
Progressive Christians are liberated Christians who can think for themselves & not
have the church think for them.Progressives refuse to participate in a theology of patriarchy that hold women in spiritual vassalage.
A profound faith focused more on justice than judgment; where all are allowed to participate as is their birthright as children of God.
