Anabaptist ReMix : Varieties of Cultural Engagement in North America, Hardback Book

Anabaptist ReMix : Varieties of Cultural Engagement in North America Hardback

Edited by Lauren Friesen, Dennis R. Koehn

Hardback

Description

The creative clash of tradition and innovation causes many cultures to be in continuous remix.

Crucibles of adaptation are present in religion, law, education, science, technology, publishing, arts, media, etc.

The present volume Anabaptist ReMix: The Varieties of Cultural Engagement is a case study of one tradition—Anabaptists and Mennonites—and fragments of its transformation in the modern and post-modern era.

Today, in the face of a global pandemic, climate disaster, social fragmentation, and the prospect of nuclear annihilation, the descendants of radical reformers seek to live out the wisdom of that original revolution.

Theology is re-imagined as a conversation about human nature and emergent images of the divine.

In this volume, the arts are re-framed as an examination of conflict, catharsis, and justice.

Christian pacifism is given new partners with those in the just-war tradition.

Women find a new voice to tell stories of abuse, oppression, and healing.

Native American, Black, and Latinx voices call attention to buried stories calling for resurrection.

The power of institutional structures is interrogated and challenged to act on prophetic missions of equality, healing, and justice.
