Lectures in Radical Christian Faith 2021
Progressive Christianity: Hope for the Future?
The 2021 lecture, in association with Progressive Christianity UK and the final Marcus Borg Memorial Conference, was held on Zoom on Tuesday 19th October 2021 at 8pm.
A recording of the event can be found at https://www.pcnbritain.org.uk/resources/videos/hope-for-the-future
Speakers:
Revd Deshna Shine
Ordained Interfaith Minister and Chaplain in USA, published author and International speaker; Former Executive Director of ProgressiveChristianity.org
Bishop Jeremy Greaves
Assistant Bishop of Brisbane in the Anglican Church of Australia; describes himself as a progressive Christian who “lives on the edge of the church”
For this on line conference we have the opportunity to learn about the possibilities and challenges for progressive Christianity, not only in America and Australia but what is common to us here in Europe. And how does the culture of richer nations, with a widely diverse population contrast to countries in the southern half of the globe? Are there common barriers and issues to progressive thinking in all our countries? And can the voices and thinking of younger leaders like Deshna and Jeremy give us hope for the future?
