Christianity Today's 2017 Book of the Year Award of Merit -
Missions/Global Church Amidst the variegated spread of global
Christianity, followers of Jesus are showing up in unexpected
places. Today we hear of culturally embedded insider movements,
Jesus followers in the folds and creases of Islamic, Hindu,
Buddhist, and other cultural fabrics. They elude our conventional
theological categories and elicit wonder and debate. Are these
authentic expressions of Christian faith? And if so, how should we
understand them? William Dyrness brings a rare blend of cultural
and theological engagement to his reflections on these insider
movements. Could it be that our own understanding of what God is
doing in the world is culturally shaped and needs recalibrating?
How might the story of Israel and the early emergence of Jewish
followers of Jesus provide helpful perspective on what we are
seeing today? What is God already doing amidst a culture and people
before the missionary arrives? And how might American Christians
need to rethink the nature of religion? Within the present ferment
and conversation, Dyrness's probings and reflections open up a
theological space for exploring these questions anew.
