Pages for Progress, a program of Church and Society, was established to create spaces for collective learning through shared reading and in-depth exploration of topics from a theological perspective, to become more effective advocates as people of faith.

This resource guide is the culmination of our first gathering centered around “The Sum of Us.” Designed for use in local churches, districts, annual conferences, or community groups, the guide facilitates meaningful discussions and a deeper understanding of the book’s themes from a theological lens.

This guide is structured into three 90-minute sessions, each featuring:

  • Welcome and Community Guidelines: Establishing a respectful and inclusive environment.
  • Theological Grounding: Connecting the book’s theme to our faith.
  • Book Discussion Questions: Encouraging thoughtful dialogue and reflection.
  • Closing: Announcement and reminders for the next session.

The resource guide is available for free. Download the document below.
