Is an urban based approach to mission still relevant in a networked
global society? If so, what is particular about the urban context
for the heart of God's mission? How is that mission understood in
terms of evangelism and proclamation; sin and salvation; the work
of the sacraments and the Holy Spirit; and challenge of Christ in
the lives of his followers? Theological reflection, case studies
and new insights come together as practitioners, theologians and
urban clergy reflect on the presence of the Church in urban
communities. Crossover City confronts the theological priorities of
the Church as it attempts to hold the tensions between expectations
of its partnership in social regeneration and welfare and its
prophetic voice through its continued and transformative presence
in marginalized communities. It challenges the way theology is
often done in isolated factions that deny openness and
collaboration which must underpin the transformative mission our
urban areas cry out for. Critical reading for those in theological
training and parish ministry seeking resources for a creative and
radical witness in our increasingly urban world.
