Forlagets omtale:
Engage the latest thinking of the emerging church
The articles in this book cover a broad range of topics such as spirituality, theology, multiculturalism, post-colonialism, evangelism and many others.

Since the emerging church started grabbing headlines early this millennium, it has been labelled many different things. A movement. A conversation. A friendship. Some even call it a scandal.

An Emergent Manifesto of Hope is a coming together of divergent voices into a collection of writings that will bring you into the latest thinking of the emerging church. You will have a front-row seat as both established leaders and up-and-comers in this influential international movement grapple with how to be faithful Christians in today's ever-changing cultural context. More than twenty-five contributors present honest, compelling, and at times highly personal reflections on topics like spiritual formation, social justice, sex, church and community, evangelism, racial reconciliation, postcolonialism, and the Bible.

As you engage these reflections, you will come away with a deeper understanding of the hopeful imagination that drives the emerging church. And you will appreciate the beauty of a conversation that is continually being formed and, by its unique nature, defies one, univocal message.
