The Gospel Coalition Doesn’t Really Get Progressive Christianity and Atheism

December 3, 2018

In this episode, Pete responds to an article from The Gospel Coalition entitled, “3 Beliefs Some Progressive Christians and Atheists Share.” He takes issue with the harmful rhetoric that polarizes Evangelicalism creating an “us vs. them” mentality among brothers and sisters in Christ. He points out that Progressive Christianity shouldn’t be a pejorative term but one that describes a creative and inquisitive faith seeking to evolve with their understanding of the scripture.
