Description

In "Explorations in Ecclesiology and Ethnography" Christian Scharen and several other contributors explore empirical and theological understandings of the church. Like the first volume in the Studies in Ecclesiology and Ethnography series, this second volume seeks to bridge the great divide between theological research and ethnography (qualitative research).The book's wide-ranging chapters cover such fascinating topics as geographic habits of American evangelicals, debates over difficult issues like homosexuality, and responses to social problems like drug abuse and homelessness. The contributors together model a collaborative, cross-disciplinary approach, with fruitful results that will set a new standard for ecclesiological research.Contributors Christopher BrittainHelen CameronHenk De RoestPaul FiddesMatthew GuestRoger HaightHarald HegstadMark MulderPaul MurrayJames NiemanChristian B.
