With contributions from Anglican scholars from across the worldwide Anglican Communion, this volume reimagines the Anglican Communion as a polycentric and multivocal community serving God's mission.

The Anglican Communion faces many challenges and opportunities as its primary demographic continues to shift to the Global South, and its English and Western cultural and ecclesiological hegemony is increasingly called into question. As a global family of churches, the Anglican Communion has to explore new relationships, power dynamics, and ecclesiological practices as it lives into a postcolonial, multivocal, and polycentric Communion. This hopeful anthology offers theological and ecclesiological analyses, critical reflections on matters of justice and Anglicanism's colonial legacy, as well as missional, and pastoral possibilities for a postcolonial Anglican Communion.



Reimagines the Anglican Communion as a polycentric and multivocal community serving God's mission from the perspective of international Anglican scholars.

Arvustused

This is a very timely publication. As Anglican Communion structures are being debated, with proposals to make them less centered on the set of Canterbury and more reflective of the diverse nature of its member churches, these essays provide extensive theological commentary on and passionate advocacy of this trajectory. As with its widely read predecessor of 2001, Beyond Colonial Anglicanism, this volume will richly fulfil the editors hopes of catalyzing discussion that shapes "our common dream for an embodied, pluralistic, and freeing postcolonial Anglicanism". * Stephen Spencer, Director of Theology and Implementation, Canon of Musoma Cathedral, Mara, Tanzania; Honorary Fellow in the Department of Theology and Religion, Durham University, UK *
