"Liberals" generally refers to a political stance rather than a religious body. Therefore, the specific religious beliefs will vary from one liberal to the next. The most common stance among liberal Christians that I've encountered in some form or another tends to be a more narrow reliance on The Bible as fact as compared to more fundamentalist Christians. This generally translates into the belief that much of it is fables or anecdotes rather than direct history, that Jesus was more of a good role model and teacher than the Son of God, or other means of accepting the many of the behavioral ideas of the Bible without accepting the stories these lessons are found within. This should be taken with the knowledge, however, that it is not descriptive of all liberal Christians and certainly not of liberals en masse.
