What is a good normative systematic theology text that can fit with the United Church of Canada? Not a historical analysis of (for example) what was the social gospel and how did it influence the early United Church, but a sustained argument of what the UCCan SHOULD believe, do, & be?

When families rely on food banks in one of the world’s wealthiest nations, we are challenge afresh. Jesus didn’t tell the hungry to fend for themselves. Faith is about building a society where no one goes hungry because justice and compassion shape our choices. #LiberalChristianity #Unitarian

Weird admission: I wish their was a catechism for rabidly liberal Protestantism, despite the fact such a thing is arguably impossible.

This was a great listen, as was the entire Bonhoeffer podcast series by @trippfuller.bsky.social & Homebrewed Christianity.
That said, I still don’t know how to both embrace a God who takes sides, and stay in relationship with people who support horrible things. /1

I am becoming increasingly that I will only feel belonging and content in a type of church that doesn’t and apparently cannot exist. I find this depressing, as I take it suggest something is wrong with both me and the world in ways I cannot fix.
