Reformed and Reforming, United and Uniting

This paper considers the task of comparative theology from the perspective of Uniting denominations in North America. It first describes the principles of “reformed and always reforming” in the United Church of Christ and “united and uniting” at work in the United Church of Canada, as motivations to engage in comparative work. It then considers how these impulses can contribute to reforming a Reformed doctrine of sin via comparative conversation with non-dual Saiva theology.
