Room for Doubt
Conservative Christians are trying to protect the faith. Progressive Christians want to reimagine it. Meanwhile, our culture is moving beyond it. Who's right? After stepping down from a prominent church, a former pastor finds himself in the middle and seeks answers to questions like: Does traditional faith still make sense in a progressing world? And how do I follow a God I'm not always sure is real?
