Written from the mainline church perspective, this book confronts changes to Christianity in North America (as the end of Christendom) and how the Church can take this as a opportunity to change into a dramatic counter culture. I loved the book, and it initially got me interested in Mennonites who are doing a LOT with this challenge. The rest is history. ( ) This draws largely upon the Newbiginian trajectory of the church's ontology as mission as it participates in the missio Dei. One of the more concise and accessible introductions to the missional conversation. For more see David Bosch- "Transforming Mission", Leslie Newbigin's "The Open Secret" and Darrel Guder's "The Continuing Conversion of the Church". sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

What would a theology of the Church look like that took seriously the fact that North America is now itself a mission field? This question lies at the foundation of this volume written by an ecumenical team of six noted missiologists--Lois Barrett, Inagrace T. Dietterich, Darrell L. Guder, George R. Hunsberger, Alan J. Roxburgh, and Craig Van Gelder. The result of a three-year research project undertaken by The Gospel and Our Culture Network, this book issues a firm challenge for the church to recover its missional call right here in North America, while also offering the tools to help it do so. The authors examine North America?s secular culture and the church?s loss of dominance in today?s society. They then present a biblically based theology that takes seriously the church?s missional vocation and draw out the consequences of this theology for the structure and institutions of the church.
