About this listen

An urgent argument for the centrality of Christian witness in the world.

The world is changing rapidly. Between climate change, an unequal economic system, and widespread human migration, our societies are under stress and strain like never before. And just at the moment when the world needs to hear good news, many people perceive the Christian church as too old, tired, or out-of-touch to respond.

In Faithful, Creative, Hopeful, Jesse Zink demonstrates the importance of the Christian gospel and its witness to the flourishing of human societies. Zink offers fifteen theses—echoing those of the church reformers—that together offer a vision for a renewed faith and a renewed church in this crisis-shaped world. From the future of the Eucharist to the nature of Christian hope, from the challenges of neoliberal capitalism to the joys of local community, Zink skillfully weaves together theology, Scripture, liturgy, congregational ministry, and on-the-ground experience of church in a variety of contexts to provoke, motivate, and challenge Christians to renew their ministry and live our mission in a changing and challenging world.

Jesse Zink does it again! This eminently readable book was excellently brought to life in this audio format. His consideration especially about how economic factors keep people from coming to church really stood out to me. This book offers insight to both Clergy and Lay People about how the church can be resilient and also important to the lives of people in Beloved Communities. Jesse’s clear and direct style makes it a compelling read and the audio format and short theses make it perfect for commuters. Truly an excellent book.

An Excellent Thoughtful Look at The Modern Church
