A systematic understanding of progressive Christianity and the reasons for them.
Progressive Christianity is a family of perspectives that vigorously rejects the "religious right" as a gross distortion of the Christian faith. Just as important, progressive Christianity criticizes and moves beyond the (other) conservatisms and the liberalisms of the immediate Christian past. This book presents one progressive Christian standpoint-introductory in character for ordinary people, not specialist.
