Kierkegaard's Critique of Christendom

Kierkegaard was a prophet who critiqued Christendom, the perversion of authentic, New Testament Christianity into the institutionalized, materialistic, triumphalist, and flabby religion of modernism.

Emergent Christianity and Modernity

Emergent Christianity is attempting to carve out a more authentic way of being Christian and doing church within--and beyond--the ineffectual, institutionalized church of modernity.

Overlap with Emerging Church

In many ways, Kierkegaard's critiques, concerns, and goals overlap with emergent Christianity and the emerging church.

Bringing Kierkegaard into Dialogue

For the first time, this book brings Kierkegaard into a dialogue with various postmodern forms of Christianity, on topics like revelation and the Bible, the atonement and moralism, and the church as an apologetic of witness.

Kierkegaard as a Prophetic Voice

In conversation with postmodern philosophers, contemporary theologians, and emergent leaders, Kierkegaard is offered as a prophetic voice for those who are carving out an alternative expression of the New Testament today and attempting to follow Christ through works of love.
