Hey, you know that book I've been raving about, by the late English missionary and bishop Lesslie Newbigin, called
The Gospel in a Pluralist Society? Well,
Prof. Scot McKnight (on whose blog you can always find good things) tipped me off to the fact that Drew Moser over at
Rural Praxis has begun a series on the book. It looks like it'll be kind of like the series I'm doing on
The Continuing Conversion of the Church, only far more skillful - whereas I'm only managing a dense summary of the book, Drew seems to be achieving a readable commentary.
If you're interested in a lot of the issues facing the Christian church in a 21st century, pluralistic, postmodern society - including issues of truth (absolute? relative? culturally conditioned?), the particularity of Jesus, mission, interfaith relations, engaging the cultures, etc. - then you really ought to read this book. If you don't have time to read the book - or don't want to do it on my say-so - then you should check out
Drew's series.
