For a long time, it looked as if the idea of the local and
therefore of place seen as locality seemed to have lost its
relevance. Much of the church lost any sense that geographical
context matters. Yet that tendency to pull people out of their
context has played to a consumerist mentality that sees church more
as a consumer choice than a genuine community. Now, a shift seems
to be underway that values locality much more - a resurgence of
interest in the parish and the importance of the church's presence
in community. In "The Place of the Parish" Martin Robinson explores
this shift, considering how it is manifested in a variety of
contexts, rural, inner-city, Anglican and independent. Drawing on
specific examples linked to the so-called 'New Parish Movement', he
demonstrates how a theology of place is made manifest in the
mission of the church today.
