Holy Anarchy by Graham Adams

Description

Perhaps, after all, the decolonising agenda isn’t extra baggage the church needs to carry on top of everything else. Perhaps, instead, it is the very heart of what the church should be about – disrupting, uncomfortable, and bringing about a kind of ‘holy anarchy’.

In Holy Anarchy, Graham Adams points to a realm in which all dynamics of domination, not least in the church, are subverted. It cuts across the loyalties and boundaries of religion and fosters the greatest possible solidarity amongst the different. Urgent and timely, the book weaves together themes around Empire, liberation and decolonial practice with an exploration of the nature and scope of church community, interreligious engagement, mission, and worship.

The Revd Dr Graham Adams is Tutor in Mission Studies, World Christianity and Religious Diversity,  a Northern College tutor and ordained Congregational minister who teaches Mission Studies in the context of global Christianity and religious diversity and dialogue.
