An Emergent Manifesto of Hope
I’ve got a chapter called “A Pound of Social Justice: Beyond Fighting for a Just Cause” in the new book, An Emergent Manifesto of Hope. Tell me if you want to get it but are having a hard time getting your hands on a copy. Here’s an interesting book review by Roger Overton over at the A-Team blog, where he makes very short summaries of each chapter in the book. Here are Roger’s concluding thoughts:
One thing that should become clear to readers of this book is that the Emergent Church is not, nor is it seeking to be, a monolithic movement. Voices in this book range in their views of theology and the role of the Bible in their ministries- some calling the church to fulfill its biblical mandates and some others straying from biblical teaching.
An Emergent Manifesto of Hope is valuable in that it presents a variety of Emergent practices and theologies in the words of its promoters. Those who are looking to participate or to better understand the movement will benefit from reading the volume.
