SMASHING CHURCH TRADITIONS

How can the Jamaican Church help in the transformation of our nation?

Today's Church is more concerned with traditional understandings of salvation than it is with day to day issues that affect the lives of people. In The Church... to Rock Stone, Caribbean Theologian, David Pearson, challenges the Church to rethink her message, mission, and method of community engagement.

In discipling people, the Church cannot divorce herself from their day to day realities. She must speak to all areas of their lives, especially issues traditionally thought to be "out of bounds" for her engagement.

The idea of holistic engagement might not be popular, but it is as essential as the air that we breathe. In this work you will gain:

• Critical insight into the state of the Caribbean Church

• Cogent suggestions for improving the Church's witness to our nation

• Compassionate responses to many struggling with these issues

The Church... to Rock Stone is a must-read for anyone concerned with the church's role in transforming the Jamaican society.
