Essentials of the postmodern church

29 February 2012|Feature Articles|Number 5

  • Be honest in everything.
     
  • Be open about our ignorance.
     
  • Be open to questions and discussion about anything.
     
  • Care for the other (locally and globally), without hope of them joining us.
     
  • Put an end to “imperialistic” thinking that everything about us is better than anyone else, and that we have the right to impose our ways on others.
  • Own our faith completely.
     
  • Mystery and intellect.
     
  • Love with clear limits.
     
  • A challenge to consumerism, high-speed life, materialism, capitalism and socialism.
     
  • No defence of institutions or anything else from the past.
     
  • Know what the good news we find in our church is both for us and to invite others to join us.
     
  • An open and growing relationship with God through practise of spiritual actions or disciplines.
