Product Overview
In a fragmented, fragile and fractured world, what kind of churches
do we need that can speak prophetically to the nations? We are living
through a suffering context and a polarized world that requires a new
ecclesiology, that is, way of doing church. Polyphonic God introduces
the idea that the Trinity speaks more than one language and inhabits
multiple worldviews, yet is one in essence. It offers new
interdisciplinary perspectives on ecclesiology and missiology. This book
envisions a re-imagined church that is intercultural, intergenerational
and interdenominational.
In Polyphonic God, theologians
and practitioners together contend that intercultural churches are
significant in multicultural British society, and serve to create a
counter-cultural kingdom narrative demonstrating how we can find unity
in the midst of diversity and how this can enrich the lives of everybody
involved.
