Exploring Christianity In The 21st Century - A Review Of Christianity 21

This week on the Cosmic Citizen we will explore Christianity21, a yearly conference that explores Christianity in the 21st Century. Birthed in 2009, Christianity21 invited attenders to Minneapolis, MN to imagine a 21st century Christianity. It featured 21 speakers who delivered 21 big ideas in 21 minutes each. For Christians who actively search for new answers to age-old questions and new meanings and values in their Christian faith traditions it is thrilling to be a part of. The conference has continued; being held in Denver in 2014 and most recently in Phoenix at the end of January 2015. We broadcast our live from the 2014 show and featured many of the speakers and leaders of the Emergent Christian movement. However, we are devoting this week's show exclusively to interviewing several Urantia Book readers who not only attended the event in Phoenix but also presented there.   It’s difficult to describe the atmosphere that is created when energized people from across the Christian spectrum come together to imagine a healthier, better faith for the future. If you didn’t get a chance to be there, we hope this week's Cosmic Citizen will give you some of the thoughts, reflections and highlights of the event, shared by fellow faith pioneers who were there. It's a taste of what happens when progressive and forwarding looking Christians come together. At these events some of the brightest and most provocative religious thinkers in the United States come together to offer insightful treatment of difficult and sometimes controversial subjects in unique 21-minute talks. These talks angle on the future of faith in America while the conference provides the opportunity for people of faith to meet and build relationships with others from different backgrounds. Join us!
