The traditional Christian faith story encompasses creation to consummation, with the story of Jesus as its central point. However, the story as traditionally told fails at every point to be credible today. Without a credible faith story, Christianity cannot survive. What is happening is that a new narrative is arising that is radically reshaping Christianity and its future.
Faith Story looks first at why the traditional narrative has failed and the environment of ambiguity and knowing that any new narrative must meet in order to be credible. The exploration continues into the understanding of 'beginning', of human culture, of the radical reshaping of the Hebrew narrative, of Jesus and the early church, the vision of spirituality in global culture and the projection of faith into the future.
