Hell?

This American Life (one of my favorite pod-casts) had a wonderful story on Heretics this week. They tell the story of a black minister in Tulsa who felt a calling from God to move his church towards the Gospel of Inclusion and away from a belief in hell. (Click)

Admittedly due to my background, I am not all that comfortable with the Gospel of Inclusion but I am all for the consequences. As they say, consorting with sinners, gays, and Unitarians.

Over the past few years as I move away from the institutional church I both fear and hope that my story may be like his.
