The Great Spiritual Migration

How the World's Largest Religion Is Seeking a Better Way to Be Christian

Más información sobre el libro

The Christian narrative, from Genesis to the present, centers on people moving beyond outdated religious systems to embrace more redemptive ways of living. Brian McLaren, a prominent figure in contemporary religion, asserts that despite alarming reports about declining faith and church attendance, Christianity is not dying but undergoing a significant spiritual transformation. For many, this journey has already begun. Drawing on his experiences as an activist, pastor, and public theologian, McLaren encourages readers to abandon nostalgia and instead embrace new understandings that are reshaping the church. He identifies three key shifts defining this change: 1. Spiritually, many Christians are moving away from rigid belief systems and towards a life defined by love. 2. Theologically, believers are rejecting the notion of a violent God in favor of seeing God as a renewing Spirit working for the common good. 3. Missionally, the faithful are aligning less with organized religion and more with spiritual activism, focusing on healing the planet, promoting peace, combating poverty and injustice, and collaborating with other faiths for a better future. With insight and compassion, McLaren invites readers to embark on a transformative spiritual pilgrimage to help Christianity become more authentically Christian.
