Fresh Expressions of Church and the Kingdom of God (Ancient Faith, Future Mission)

by Graham Cray (Editor), Graham Cray (Editor), Ian Mobsby (Editor), Ian Mobsby Graham Cray (Author)

Synopsis

This important book poses a challenging question: what are the aims of mission and are they being achieved through Fresh Expressions? This book argues that mission is equally about social transformation or, in biblical terms, building the kingdom of God, as well as building the church. Theological reflection and stories from front line practitioners in churches in the sacramental traditions (with their heritage of service in poor communities) combine to create a unique, timely and valuable resource which includes contributions from leading names in the study and practice of mission today.
