Church + Embodied Faith = Hope

When I look at the church, what gives me hope?

I am watching a movement of people who aren’t just discarding their faith but choosing a more embodied one that pays attention to people’s holistic personhood. As this happens, I am watching Christians become more healthy as they go to therapy, leave toxic spaces, and develop more inclusive theologies. My hope is that this process would not just impact people, but church systems and structures.

A prolific author (75 books!), now 87 years young, Swidler continues his energetic advocacy for dialogue, particularly interfaith and interideological conversations.

Church + Latinx Millennial Christian Leaders = Hope

By Alexia Salvatierra

When I look at the church, what gives me hope?

What gives me hope is the vision of Latinx Millennial Christian leaders in the US and Latin America. Their visions for the church that they want to belong to and help create are so beautiful—true community, dedicated to loving each other and their neighborhood, committed to deep honesty with mutual grace, standing up for justice, creative and entrepreneurial for the gospel and the Way of Christ.
