Full Description
How do Christians go about understanding their cultural context in twenty-first century Britain?
What is the relationship between faith and the culture in which it is lived?
Considering the most formative influences for people of faith in our culture, and the forces at play in competing for their attention, Cultural Hermeneutics equips those in ministry, and those in formation for roles within the church, to better 'read' the times in which they serve.
