In his groundbreaking work, "In Faith Formation in a Secular Age," Andrew Root delves into the pressing issue of youth disengagement from the church and presents a fresh perspective on how faith can be cultivated in our contemporary world. This seminal book serves as the first installment in his Ministry in a Secular Age trilogy.
In "The Pastor in a Secular Age," Root takes us on a profound exploration of how the secular age has shaped and influenced the identity and vocation of pastors. He sheds light on the challenges faced by pastors in this context, obscuring their core mission of calling and assisting others in experiencing the ministry. Through a rich tapestry of examples drawn from historical figures such as Augustine, Jonathan Edwards, Martin Luther King Jr., and Nadia Bolz-Weber, Root showcases how pastors have both perpetuated and responded to the secular age.
To unravel the complexities of this secular era, Root turns to the wisdom of Old Testament texts and the theological insights of Robert Jenson. He demonstrates how pastors can reclaim their vital role of attending to the experiences of divine action and offer a renewed vision for pastoral ministry in our modern times.
This thought-provoking and insightful work challenges pastors and church leaders to adapt and reimagine their approaches to faith formation and pastoral care in order to engage and nurture the next generation of believers in a secular world. "In Faith Formation in a Secular Age" is a must-read for anyone seeking to navigate the complexities of faith and ministry in the 21st century.
