The core narrative of the Christian faith, the book that conveys it (the Bible) and the institution of the church have all been marginalised by the development of modernity and post-modernity. Strangely, post-modernity has created an opportunity for religious thinking and experience to re-enter the lives of many. Yet post-modernity is not itself an adequate framework for thinking about life. There is therefore a new opportunity for Christians to imagine what comes after post-modernity and to prepare the church, its book and its story for a new missional engagement with western culture. With a boldly crafted vision this book does precisely that.
