Synopsis:
Emerging Down Under taps into the current hunger for spirituality, the death pains of various obsolete church forms, and the rising tide of hope felt by many Christians. It suggests that the fragmented church needs to reconnect both with its roots and with the contemporary environment, providing practical examples of church that bring praying, eating, learning and hospitality together in one place.The book was first publsihed as Church of Isles by Ray Simpson for a Bristish audience. In collaboration with Australian church activist Brent Lyons Lee, the book has tapped into worldwide conversations about 'emerging church' and 'new monasticism' and applied these ideas to a 'downunder' context.
About the Author: RAY SIMPSON is a celibate Anglican Priest and has been minister in churches in Britian's industrial midlands, multi-cultural London and rural East Anglia, and he has planted a neighborhood church, sponsored by six church streams (Protestant, Catholic and Quaker) in Bowthorpe, Norwich.
