Evangelicalism Is Dead
Evangelicalism died peacefully surrounded by its family of affiliations, coalitions, publishers, and organizations. No churches were at its bedside. It received flowers from the Spirituality Center of America for its contribution to free expression located in the “born again” experience. The bulletin read “A Celebration of Evangelicalism’s Life and a Witness to Cultural Spirituality.” The few pastors who wanted the word “resurrection” in the bulletin were voted down lest seekers be offended by biblical doctrine.

Ex Auditu - Volume 22
Ex Auditu began as the journal incorporating the papers of the Fredrick Neumann Symposium of Princeton Theological Seminary. After the first four volumes the journal began publishing the papers from the North Park Symposium on the Theological Interpretation of Scripture.

The Human Church
The church doesn't need to be more spiritual. It needs to become more human. Since God decided becoming human was right, so must the church. Jesus' language was consistently understood by nonreligious people. Elitist in-house church language may never reach the growing number of Americans without a religious background who have given up on God. This book views the church as a unique people-group and the reader as an anthropologist. Employing basic ethnographic methods, the reader looks at the church again for the first time without a religious lens. Based upon the premise that all good theology emerges from good anthropology, the book first considers the rituals celebrated around the symbols of a manger, cross, bread, wine, and tomb. Such symbols then become the basis for theological interpretation. Dietrich Bonhoeffer is the reader's conversation partner to help make the theological journey from human community to church, manger to incarnation, cross to redemption, and tomb to resurrection. The church will flourish in the twenty-first century to the degree that it proclaims the Gospel using nonreligious language with a human accent.
