Publisher's Synopsis
The book is packed full of history and enormous challenges.
It is an adventurous journey through the history of the Church and asks important questions for its future.
A well-crafted and fascinating pilgrimage, stopping often to be refreshed and challenged.
Andy Roland considers three fundamental questions:
Where were we? Where are we? Where could we be?
- CONTINUING CONVERSATIONS
During 2000 years of Christianity, what questions arose from society to which the Church could give a response?
(spoiler alert - the questions kept changing)
- NEW WORLD/NEW CONSCIOUSNESS
All major changes and developments since 2000 are described: from liberalism to autocracy, from graphene to CRISPR, from sexualities to AI, from mindfulness to food banks.
- BEING CREDIBLE IN THE POST-MODERN WORLD
Has the Church got a future in the public square?
Only by reformulating its understanding of its sacred cows, such as the Bible, other faiths, sin and death.
Enjoy the Ride!
