Progressive Christianity Forum presents an interactive facilitated panel discussion with Marion Millin and Michael Dowling, chaired by Maureen Howland.

“People with a more progressive outlook tend to see the need for the tradition to keep evolving in response to changes in the world. I would describe progressive Christians as generally being people who are open to new ideas, who are adventurous and exploratory in their thinking. In many cases they are disillusioned with the more traditional, orthodox forms of church, whose doctrines, in many cases, they no longer find convincing and helpful. They tend to be people who are looking for a way of being Christian that fits with their 21st-century worldview.”
The late John Pfitzner

Marion Millin and Michael Dowling are two people who fit John’s description – two people for whom the journey to Progressive Christianity has been both challenging and fulfilling.

“Someone remarked recently how our older generation had been through one of the greatest changes ever in human existence – I can look back and see how my own spiritual journey has progressed within it to now being on what I call the left wing branch of the vine! But it has also left me wondering how and in what form Christianity will continue into the future.“ Marion Millin

“On my very non-linear journey into ministry, I discovered within myself a passion to make sense of this life that we live! I developed an almost insatiable curiosity about the intersection between our lived human experience; the workings of the natural world of which we humans form an integral part; the ever-changing scientific understanding of the same; and our understanding of and faith in the God who loves us.” Michael Dowling
