Loading... The Gospel in a Pluralist Society (original 1989; edition 1989)by Lesslie NewbiginNewbigin is always stimulating. This is the biggest collection of his thought in one place, though maybe not the place to start. Challenging and helpful throughout. Not a light read: those Brits! Unless you have a Brit background somewhere their prose can seem needlessly convoluted. At any rate, God sent us a prophet not yet fully heeded. The message can't yet be absorbed maybe. A congregational minister who became Bishop in the Church of South India: a lifetime of working in an ecumenical context where Christianity is a minority faith. Newbigin is becoming increasingly influential as the Western churches catch up with his experience. More critical of culture than Donovan and so an excellent complement. (Staff, 2008). |
