What does it mean to be the church today? How can we understand the constantly changing kaleidoscope of religious temperaments that surround us? How can we form a strong and hopeful identity as followers of Christ in this context? What's falling apart and what's being reborn in the midst of this chaos? What new questions must we ask, and what will be the cost of pursuing honest and faithful answers to these new questions? Is there a coherent song into which we invite others... a song not of homogeneity but true harmony?
