Hillsong is not a progressive church — progressives target traditional Christianity, Hillsong seeks an inclusive umbrella
Answering whether Hillsong qualifies as theologically progressive.
Mike distinguishes theological progressivism (which targets and dismantles traditional Christianity) from Hillsong's approach of broad inclusivity. Hillsong would not partner with progressives because progressivism is fundamentally negative/deconstructive, and Hillsong is allergic to negativity. Mike affirms Hillsong and Bethel as brothers and sisters in Christ despite concerns, urging against large-church bigotry. His hope is for stronger theological leadership to rise within Hillsong.
