2010 Golden Canon Leadership Book Award winner The future is now.
Philip Jenkins has chronicled how the next Christendom has shifted
away from the Western church toward the global South and East.
Likewise, changing demographics mean that North American society
will accelerate its diversity in terms of race, ethnicity and
culture. But evangelicalism has long been held captive by its
predominantly white cultural identity and history. In this book
professor and pastor Soong-Chan Rah calls the North American church
to escape its captivity to Western cultural trappings and to
embrace a new evangelicalism that is diverse and multiethnic. Rah
brings keen analysis to the limitations of American Christianity
and shows how captivity to Western individualism and materialism
has played itself out in megachurches and emergent churches alike.
Many white churches are in crisis and ill-equipped to minister to
new cultural realities, but immigrant, ethnic and multiethnic
churches are succeeding and flourishing. This prophetic report
casts a vision for a dynamic evangelicalism that fully embodies the
cultural realities of the twenty-first century. Spiritual renewal
is happening within the North American church, from corners and
margins not always noticed by those in the center. Come, discover
the vitality of the next evangelicalism.
