The Church has a past. Does it have a future?

£18.00

A well-crafted and fascinating pilgrimage, stopping often to be refreshed and challenged.

The strength of this pilgrimage is the story-rich journey with many opportunities to contemplate on what has been learnt and to admit there is so much still to be discovered about the future of the Church.

All in all, one is given a bag of tools to help us delve into the history of the Church and a journey with so many great teachers and theologians, including Andy himself!

The book encourages us to find answers, or perhaps to offer a response, to the big questions posed concerning the future of the Church. This book provides a challenge to think critically.

Description

This compelling 330-page work is a bold and far-reaching exploration of Christianity’s historical journey and its contemporary crossroads.  Rev Andy, as he likes to be called,  takes readers on a sweeping pilgrimage through 2,000 years of church history before plunging into the turbulent cultural and ethical shifts of the last 25 years — from artificial intelligence to CRISPR gene editing, transgender identity, social media, surrogacy, and beyond.  The third part is a hard-hitting and thought-provoking challenge to much of the Church’s traditional ways of thinking about the faith, but also exposing some of secular society’s blind spots.
