Seeking to dynamically alter the way that theologians,
ecclesiologists, students of religion and ministers look at the
relationship between church and society, this book takes religion,
politics and society as basic categories and explores how
oft-overlooked issues are in fact highly significant for the
shaping of theological and ecclesiological horizons. The Ecclesial
Canopy is not, however, simply about reading meanings into
religion, politics and society. Rather, it sets out to faithfully
interpret much of the material that surrounds us, yet is often
taken for granted or unnoticed. Paying close and patient attention
to beliefs, language, artefacts, rituals, practices and other
material - all of which are constitutive for ecclesial life and
theological identity - this book offers an invitation of engagement
to the scholar or minister. The Ecclesial Canopy makes a
significant and important contribution to the field of pastoral and
practical theology. Building on the concepts of implicit and
invisible religion, Martyn Percy offers a fresh and original
interpretative 'take' on contemporary society, appealing to clergy,
laity, scholars and all those working in the field of theory and
reflective practice in practical and pastoral theology.
