<P>The symposium seeks to provide both a forum for lively discussion and debate
integrated with planning sessions for Greater Boston. The two-day event will
feature intellectual discussions on the History of Christian Progressivism,
Jesus’ Call to Peacemaking, the Theological Support for Gay Marriage.</P>
<P>We will also hold interactive sessions that seek to develop a
cross-denominational, cross-tradition Progressive Christian Council that will
work towards a public policy agenda regionally and nationally.</P>
