Who are the progressives

For several purposes, I’ve assembled a list of articles below that describe the attitudes and approaches of the self-styled “progressives.” I pray this list will be helpful in understanding better some of the tendencies among us.

For those who have stumbled on to this page without much of an idea of what’s going on, let me direct you to this page, Convictions, as a starter. Even better, this one on God’s Plan of Salvation.

Please suggest more articles for this list, which can be updated at any moment. An article or two by a progressive, without invective, if that’s possible, describing their approach, would also be of interest.
