Who we are
Bright Orthodoxy is an emerging religion, coming into fullness as we enjoin ourselves to ancient traditions for well-being, community, and insight. Faith-based practices have delivered humanity through countless hardships, and by interrogating these we discover how they converge into the more universal truths that should guide us now.
Though centered in Abrahamic religions, we respectfully approach all enduring systems of practice and belief. We see this syncretism as a means to connect with spiritual communities beyond our own and to deepen our respective personal philosophies, whatever they may be. Accordingly, we welcome members of all churches to join us in dual practice. We welcome the nonbelievers, the unchurched, and those poorly met by their church into our open communion in full standing. Bright Orthodoxy exists to fortify its practitioners, to protect, advance, and celebrate them.

Bright Orthodoxy calls upon us to fortify ourselves. To protect, advance, and celebrate our efforts in realizing a new order. Orthodoxies demand community, so we will build one because our purpose is worthy. They demand communion with nature (as no orthodoxy has been founded except by people intimately connected to the natural world) and so we seek the same. And so, we will seek to do the same. They make space for identities and modes of life untenable beyond their practice, and we will rightly guard that space. They create context, establish infrastructure, and create mechanisms for accountability that have no parallel in the secular world. This orthodoxy is ours— because we are building it.
