Progressive Christianity Forum – Kym Bills – The Contribution of Progressive Christian Voices
Join us for a presentation by Kym Bills on The Contribution of Progressive Christian Voices.
While many will be aware of the early contributions to Progressive Christianity by key figures such as Bishop John Spong and Marcus Borg, the diversity of more recent contributions is less well known and goes beyond biblical studies to include spirituality, worship and the arts. Progressive Christianity also embraces the wonders of new scientific discovery, environmental stewardship, and social justice. Kym will outline some of this more recent work and its contributions.
In semi-retirement since 2019, Kym is completing a PhD and is a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Adelaide School of Public Health. A former economist and diplomat, Kym was a career Canberra public servant from 1978 and later was employed by the CSIRO in Perth from 2011-2018 as CEO of a research joint venture. He first studied theology in 1981-82 as a graduate student in Oxford and completed a part-time Master of Ministry in 2005. In the Anglican Church he has been a school and tertiary board member, a lay examining chaplain and parish chair.
