Understanding Emerging Christianity

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Emerging Church Movement reacts against its roots in conservative evangelicalism by ''deconstructing'' contemporary Christianity. Drawing on ethnographic observations from emerging congregations, pub churches, neo-monastic communities, conferences, online networks, and interviews in the US, UK, and Ireland, Gerardo Marti and Gladys Ganiel provide a comprehensive social scientific analysis of the development of the ECM.
