About Progressive Christianity

Progressive Christianity represents the most liberal wing of Christianity, just as fundamentalist Christianity is the most conservative.

There is no actual denomination of progressive Christians. Rather, they are found scattered among a wide range of liberal and mainline Protestant denominations; some are even found within evangelical denominations, Roman Catholicism, and Eastern Orthodoxy. They are not necessarily particularly vocal about their religious beliefs.

During the 20th century, those Unitarian Universalist congregations associated with the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations in the U.S. (commonly called the Unitarian Universalist Association or UUA) and Unitarian congregations associated with the Canadian Unitarian Council in Canada were considered the most progressive Christian faith groups in North America. However, over time, both groups evolved to being primarily Humanistic in belief, while their progressive Chrisitian members became a minority.
