The urgent question for Christian mission in North America today
has to do with churches and congregations and the crisis of their
identity in the culture of modernity. Alan Roxburgh argues that the
crisis is not merely one of internal identity or structures but
involves the massive changes that have transformed modernity,
including the shifting of the church from the center of culture to
the margins. Chapter 1 reviews the marginalization of the churches
and their self-under-standing of that context; chapter 2 examines
Victor Turner s work on liminality (a term describing the
transition process that accompanies a change of state or social
position), relating it to the church s experience of
marginalization; chapter 3 outlines leadership characteristics
required in today s missionary congregations. Alan J. Roxburgh is
Senior Pastor of West Vancouver Baptist Church in British Columbia,
an adjunct faculty member of Regent College in Vancouver, and
author of the recently published Reaching a New Generation.
