The
Complex Christ
IAN
MOBSBY
MOOT : London, UK
"Our
current crisis is more to do with the gap between contemporary
culture and the church, which continues to widen. It is a
gap or rather a growing ravine that goes as deep as paradigm,
language, social organisation and hope. The church is not
just out of step, it is often a museum for a past way of life."
Ian reviews Kester Brewins 'The Complex Christ'

And one you might have missed:
|
'Jump
Britain' was screened on UK terrestrial TV over the Christmas
period and saw practitioners of 'Parkour' visiting UK landmarks
in dramatic style.
Jonny Baker saw parallels between jumping the rooftops and
the emerging church in 2003 after the original 'Jump London':

[STORY]

Thrift
store church
THE CROSS
Escondido : California USA
Our
daily life for people of the Cross is spent at our thrift store,
which I call the church of the future. Here we meet the seekers
and love them into Christ. We help the hurting, feed the hungry,
and clothe the needy. We truly are the church and this makes it
very hard to "go" to church anymore.
