With sensitivity to the Christian tradition and a rich understanding of postmodern thought, Peter Rollins argues that the movement known as the emerging church offers a singular, unprecedented message of transformation that has the potential to revolutionize the theological and moral architecture of Western Christianity. --Brian McLaren, from the Foreword.
In fact, I would say this is one of the two or three most rewarding books of theology I have read in ten years.
It helped me understand my own spiritual journey more clearly, and it gave me a sense of context for the work I\'m involved in.
Reading it did good for my mind and for my soul.
I have already begun widely recommending it.
I loved reading it. --Phyllis Tickle I am a raving fan of the book you are holding.
Here, in pregnant bud, is third-millennium Christendom.
Here in pregnant bud is the rose, the emerging new configuration, of a Christianity that is neither Roman nor Protestant, neither Eastern nor monastic; but rather is the re-formation of all of them.
Rollins offers a clear exploration of this embryonic movement and provides key resources for those involved in communities that are conversant with, and seeking to minister effectively to, the needs of a postmodern world.
How (Not) to Speak of God sets out to explore the theory and praxis of this contemporary expression of faith.
