Living the Questions 2.0
While LtQ2 does not provide pat answers to pressing questions about God and faith, it does more than just ask questions. In conversation with a wide variety of biblical scholars, theologians and other scholars in the field of religion, LtQ offers participants a broader context in which to formulate their own answers. It is a gift to all Christians desiring to explore progressive Christian faith and practice. Some of us have been waiting for decades for just such a resource!

I’ve seen no tool that matches LTQ2 for in-depth discussion 1) demonstrating how “progressive theology” takes scripture and tradition seriously without making idols of either; 2) pulling together in one curriculum resource authors, teachers, preachers and story tellers – each one an exponent of one the various progressive theologies – liberation, process, experiential, existential, Feminist, Hispanic, Asian, African; 3) dignifying lay people as being intelligent and capable of handling the biblical and theological truths and tools being taught in every responsible seminary. Our folks love LTQ2 and can’t wait to start the next series.

I am a chaplain at a retirement community of approximately 500 residents, ages 62-103. We are using Living the Questions2 in our Spiritual Growth Program and our residents are loving it. It is challenging, eye opening and soul opening! One resident told me "This study is enriching my life, like never before!" Of course there are those who cry "heresy!" but they still come and share their opinions--wonderful discussion tool! Thanks, for all your work on this project!

Living the Questions is the most extraordinary adult education material I have ever used. Life changing - personally and collectively! Thank you and may you never stop putting out such marvelous and deeply important products.

We have had several students comment that they have waited 50 years for something like this since they had felt like heretics when they went to church. It has opened the eyes of many in our church. Thanks.

We have finished our first flight of LtQ2.0. It is a huge success. We are ALL learning a lot about the role of Christianity in the 21st century… I can't begin to tell you how professional your product is and the excellence with which you have chosen your people for the video sessions… The video sessions are crisp, to the point, and nothing tiresome about them. The photography and audio are as good as I have ever seen.

By the way, and as you probably already know, LTQ 2 is great. We have only had two sessions so far, but they have been two of the more meaningful, challenging and enjoyable classes I have had the pleasure to facilitate. Thanks.

This is the most greatly appreciated video series I could have imagined someone could've created at this time. I've been teaching Borg and Spong for years - but to have this series with their colleagues as well dealing with the core topics - profound! and life-changing! I can imagine - you know the looks on people's faces after some of the stories and the tears that flow! I am so thankful to have the privilege of walking with people through the "classes" and witnessing how they very eagerly choose to go deeper in their faith and want others to experience it as well.
