What does it mean to explore progressive Christian Theology? One thing is that it means understanding that the Bible was written in a time and a place, within its own context.

Jesus's welcoming of burial rites at the expense of alms gets at the multiple aspects of church mission.

In his words of expectation, he reminds us that God has such confidence in our better natures that it is to us God has entrusted the care of the earth and God's house and children. When we are faced with losing what we have, we have choices: take from those who are weaker than us, or reach out to lift them up.
