Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. What should the church look like today? What should be the focus of its message? How should I present that message? We live in as pivotal and defining an age as the Great Depression or the Sixtiesa period whose definition, say some cultural observers, includes a warning of the churchs influence. The result? A society measurably less religious but decidedly more spiritual. Less influenced by authority than by experience. More attuned to images than to words. How does the church adapt to such a culture? Or should it, in fact, eschew adapting for maintaining a course it has followed these last two millennia? Or something in between? These are exactly the questions asked in The Church In Emerging Culture by five Christian thinker-speaker-writers, each who advocate unique stances regarding what the churchs message should be (and what methods should be used to present it) as it journeys through this evolving, postmodern era. The authors are: Andy CrouchRe:Generation Quarterly editor-in-chief Michael Hortonprofessor and reformed theologian Frederica Mathewes-Greenauthor, commentator, and Orthodox Christian Brian D. McLarenpostmodernist, author, pastor, and Emergent senior fellow Erwin Raphael McManusauthor and pastor of the innovative and interethnic L.A.-based church, Mosaic Most unique about their individual positions is that theyre presented not as singular essays but as lively discussions in which the other four authors freely (and frequently) comment, critique, and concur. That element, coupled with a unique photographic design that reinforces the depth of their at-once congenial and feisty conversation, gives you all-access entree into this groundbreaking discourse. Whats more, general editor Leonard Sweet (author of SoulTsunami and AquaChurch, among several other acclaimed texts) frames the thought-provoking dialogue with a profoundly insightful, erudite introductory essaypractically a book within a book. The Church In Emerging Culture is foundational reading for leaders and serious students of all denominations and church styles. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
