Welcome to the Progressive Christian Channel at Patheos -- host to the conversations that are shaping the future of the Church, and home to the brightest voices from the mainline, progressive and emergent church. We are ministers, professors, scholars, spiritual directors, authors, artists, youth pastors, laypeople, parents and seekers, all longing to express some part of what it is to live faithfully as a Christian in today's rapidly evolving world and religious landscape. Join our conversations on the changing church, transforming theology, spiritual practices and formation, faith and politics, social justice, the Bible, inter-faith dialogue, preaching and teaching, parenting, religion and science, books, movies and pop culture.
