Based upon addresses given to Anglican audiences in North America
and Australia, Bill Countryman directly confronts the challenges
that face Anglicans and other Western Christians at a time of
internal division and increasing indifference to religion on the
part of educated elites. He regards these challenges as a work of
the Holy Spirit, who is clearing the ground for a new era of
building, and help readers start thinking about what kind of future
the Spirit is leading us toward. The book begins by presenting the
Spirit as a demolition expert, endeavoring to shake us out of our
complacency. It then focuses on three central elements of Christian
faith and life: the image of Jesus, the sacraments, and the
scriptures, and notes some different ways in which we have seen and
utilized them over the ages. It holds out the communion of saints
as the key to understanding the ongoing value of the church today.
It calls faithful people of all stripes to reject our tendency to
turn God s gifts into idols and to rediscover a humility that will
be open to the rebuilding that must now be done with the leadership
of the Spirit. "
