There aren't many news outlets with religious writers these days, so I'm grateful that the National Post has Charles Lewis on staff to shed light on the religious life and experiences of Canadians. I appreciate particularly that Charles seems intrigued by The United Church of Canada.

Intrigued but also seemingly puzzled by a church that refuses to enforce a single “orthodox” point of view. In his eyes, I suspect, we appear to be going out of our way to raise questions that ought not to be raised, or provoke arguments that should be nipped in the bud.

I am asking for people who know the Old and New Testaments to help me.

I have a web site www.accessiblechurch.ca that is about helping your Church become accessible, by bringing down barriers to church and inside churches.

The number one key words that  bring people to my site from search engines are bible verses, diversity, disability and inclusion.

I am posting this here because i think that this is affecting many faith traditions.

Throw away Music

Throwaway prayers

Throw away traditions

Throw away Jesus

Throw away God.

But you say, new things will be inclusive of more people. But are the new things compromising what we believe as Christians or others. I had a litany that I was going to write but I think that this question covers it all.

By being inclusive of everyone in our faith communities, are we compromising our Christian beliefs?

Hi everyone. Long time. I have had to process a lot of the changes that are happening to me since joining wondercafe, and then finally rejoining a church. One of the things I promised myself when I joined the church was to change myself, but also to contribute to healing in the church. Martin Luther King was right when he said Sunday morning was the time when we ae most segregated. This is still true, but also includes segregation not just by race, but also in other ways, like ability, disability and economic status.
