Full Description
In a world in which our stories, troubles and complicities are entangled, might we also find in the Bible people with similar experience? In a world in which uncertainty abounds but the resurgent desire for mastery only deepens the polycrisis, can we seek out faith that takes uncertainty seriously, in conversation with the Bible? In a world and Bible in which multiple injustices endure, where's the prophetic doubt which dares to question the permanence of the world as it is and offer glimpses of the world that might become?
Building on his previous works, Holy Anarchy and God the Child, Graham Adams's latest book addresses an array of contemporary concerns (Empire; economic, gendered and racialised injustices; Whiteness and Christian nationalism; and more). This book employs an imaginative mix of biblical genres and offers a hermeneutic of creative disruption, discerning evocative signs of the Anarchic Spirit who destabilises rigid boundaries between insiders and outsiders, disrupts dominant power dynamics, and beckons to a hazy horizon where a new world is defiantly being born.
