Description

In contemporary Western society the church has been pushed to the margins, leading experts to describe the current era as a time 'after Christendom'.

Many traditional churches and congregations are struggling, a condition worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic regulations.

As the practice of churchgoing wanes, the performance of the sacrament is called into question.

How can we bring the traditional, communal experience of sacrament into the modern world?In Sacraments after Christendom, Andrew Francis and Janet Sutton tackle this question head-on, exploring and discussing the enactment of the sacrament in the context of church decline and an increasingly isolated world.

In doing so, they deconstruct traditional perceptions and broaden our understanding of ritual and community in order to rediscover the truth of the sacrament.
