Growing Up into the Children of God

Description

A strong, mature faith is vital for Christians and for the life of the Church.Written out of the experience of his personal faith journey and many years as a Church of England priest, David Newman offers ways of thinking about and experiencing faith which equips individuals in their growth as people and as Christians. and also shows how people with different understandings of theology, worship and politics can learn to understand each other better in order to participate more fully in the life of the Church and the mission of God.The book is also a dialogue between different groups in the Church—liberal and evangelical, old and young, inherited and new church—such that the energy and wisdom of each might benefit the other and the whole. At a time when the Church struggles with demarcations and even divisions by age, theological outlook and styles of worship, it invites Christians to develop frameworks of united diversity that enable the Church to have a credible witness in today’s complex and fragmented world.
