Weird admission: I wish their was a catechism for rabidly liberal Protestantism, despite the fact such a thing is arguably impossible.

To be clear: I know I'm whining in the 3 post 🧵 here, but if anyone has any bright ideas, I'm all ears/ eyes/ whatever.

I continue to have a strong negative reaction to defining sin as "the refusal to learn." My understanding this definition comes from Richard Rohr, but I could be wrong.
Defining sin in a way that does not involve harm, injustice, etc. feels.... bad?

Another question: How do you see the difference, if any, between "Liberal Christianity" and "Progressive Christianity"? (or Protestantism instead of Christianity)

Am I a bad progressive Christian for having a strong, negative, emotion reaction to people who say the Lord's prayer using the phrase "the Kindom of God" rather than "the kingdom of God?"

The #UnitedChurchOfCanada is one of several denominations who operated #ResidentialSchools across Canada, attempting to erase Indigenous cultures, languages, & ideologies. Some Stoney Nakoda residents see the church structure as a painful reminder of traumas inflicted; rightly so. 2/9

The UCCan motto of "Deep Spirituality, Bold Discipleship, Daring Justice," makes me think of risking martyrdom. I worry I fall short.
Some days I wish the church could help me become ready to be in that picture. I'm aware that can go wrong countless ways. But nevertheless. #UnitedChurchofCanada
Anglicans what are your thoughts on the @canadiananglican.bsky.social and the @unitedchurchcda.bsky.social having ecumenical communion? #Anglican #UnitedChurchOfCanada

Proud to be a life long member of #UnitedchurchofCanada. While the world keeps fracturing, the UC amalgamated in 1925. Perhaps a lesson eh?
I recently interviewed the Very Reverend Bruce McLeod—the oldest living former moderator of the United Church of Canada, a dedicated human rights activist and a dear family friend. broadview.org/bruce-mcleod/

On this Thursday in Black, I sit in this beautiful Sanctuary, reflecting on, and praying that women and their families who are affected by gender based violence, may find places of sanctuary. Ashe. May it be so. #thursdaysinblack #unitedchurchofcanada

Jesus doesn’t just see suffering. He walks alongside us in loneliness, sorrow, and struggle, transforming pain with love. This past Sunday, we were reminded that God feels our pain and suffering. #GodWithUs #LentenHope #CloverdaleUnitedChurch #unitedchurchofcanada #uccan #progressivechristian
