In this course we will briefly examine the history and development of the emerging Christian movement which has loosely adopted the moniker of “progressive Christianity.” The course will provide an introduction to questions progressive Christians continue to rethink, questions about theism, Christology, panentheism, and the opportunities that the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth offer to the evolution and well-being of humanity.
