Direct examinations of Christian practice, inherited culture, Scripture, ministry, and the church.
These essays ask whether the forms we have inherited still serve the divine life that originally produced them. The purpose is not criticism for its own sake. The purpose is to uncover whatever has quietly replaced Christ as the living center.
