Not all Christians are anti-science, sexist or homophobic...

      We are an inclusive group of people from different Christian denominations and faith perspectives who meet weekly to discuss topics and issues that concern us. We draw on the diverse stories, life experiences, and expertise of those present, as well as invited guests and printed resources in our efforts to seek to understand the many facets of the issues at hand, and the appropriate ways in which we can respond. We do not encourage people to hold to any particular set of beliefs, preferring each person to discover for themselves those beliefs that are life-giving for them.
