Overview

A Guidebook To Progressive Church proceeds through !ve sections. First, you receive an invitation. These short, sometimes quirky, chapters o""er a few ways ""in"" to progressive church life and thought. Next, we examine some keywords in progressive church life-prayer, discipleship, pastor, Freidigkeit (a fancy German word for brazen freedom), and Jesus. Next, we include a series of chapters on beliefs, like atheism, the meaning of forgiveness, demythologization, ecumenical and interfaith work, the creed, salvation, and sacred texts. Then, because intersectionality plays such a central role in contemporary progressive Christian re$ection, we look at topics of intersection like climate change, women's work, neurodiversity, queering, respectability, and Critical Race Theory. Finally, we include two sections, one on polis and one on praxis, the actual daily practice of progressive church and its impact on and relationship to the wider public political milieu or commons.
