Parenting after faith shift, progressive Christians look for new resources [View all]
From the article:
Turner, who identifies as a progressive Christian, isnt the only Christian who has shifted from conservative to progressive views as an adult. For many, that means a faith that emphasizes love, social justice and space for questions about the theological ideas they were raised to believe.
And for those who are parents, it means wanting to raise their children with a different view of God and the Bible than the one they grew up with. The problem? Christian childrens resources almost all skew conservative.
