For a growing number of Christians weaned on modern evangelicalism, the subculture and absolutism that accompany the dogma no longer fit. When asked, "Are you a Christian?" we find ourselves responding, "That depends on what you mean by Christian."
Dave Tomlinson, a rather "outside-the-box" Anglican priest in London, caused a major stir in the UK in 1995 with the release of The Post-Evangelical. We North Americans werent ready for his book then. But now, almost a decade later, large numbers of North American believers are finding it increasingly difficult to classify our faith, especially into terms like "evangelical," " liberal," or "conservative."
Could there be something else? Something new?
This is not about a cloaked move to liberalism. Or a full-frontal dive into relativism. Instead, The Post-Evangelical actually represents a step toward, rather than away, from ones evangelical roots, exploring controversial topics such as:
· Inerrancy of Scripture: Looking at the Bible as Gods story
· Truth: How do we know it, or can we know it?
· The World: Can we actually enjoy ourselves while down here?
· Liberal vs. Conservative: Getting beyond labels
For some, this will come as a dangerous threat--proof that were surely on that clichéd "slippery slope.". For others, the many whove been wondering if theres a version of Christianity to which they can still ascribe, these words will come as a refreshing and potentially surprising relief--an "Im not alone" oasis. Either way, the thoughts on these pages will bring about feisty discussion and reflective thought.
