A new project is underway to try and advance dialogue between conservative and progressive members of Churches of Christ. A new website, Grace Conversation, is hosted by two “progressives” (Todd Deaver and Jay Guin) and two “conservatives” (Phil Sanders and Gred Tidwell). BTW, I hate labels, but sometimes they are the best way of communicating basic assumed ideas. This promises (but we’ll see) to be a forum which moves past name calling and speaking past each other, to an arena for cordial dialogue in a Christ-like fashion. My hopes are high and my prayers often, but cynicism and history are pulling strongly at my realism. I hope that my hope is not a nope. This site should be up and running in about a week. Probably worth checking out. If you are a reader here and not affiliated with Churches of Christ, you might enjoy the site as a case study in patterns of religion!
