Description

'A Convergent Model of Renewal' addresses a perceived crisis for faith traditions.

How do we continue to value tradition while allowing for innovative and contextual expressions of faith to emerge?

How do we foster deeper participation and decentralisation of power rather than entrenched institutionalism?

Drawing on insights from contemporary philosophy, contextual theology, and participatory culture, C.

Wess Daniels calls for a revitalisation of faith traditions.

Here he proposes a model that holds together both tradition and innovation in ways that foster participatory change.

This convergent model of renewal is then applied to two case studies based in the Quaker tradition: one from the early part of the tradition and the second from aninnovative community today.

The model, however, is capable of being implemented and adapted by communities with various faith backgrounds.
