Insider Jesus: Theological Reflections on New Christian Movements

Authors

Abstract

Until now, the Insider Movement (IM) has lacked a sustained, in-depth theological justification- Insider Jesus: Theological Reflections on New Christian Movements by William Dyrness, offers one theologian’s unique approach to meet this need. Evangelical theologies of mission are sometimes filled with either proof-texting or philosophy that never even touches on the biblical text; Insider Jesus is neither of these. Dyrness, professor of theology and culture at Fuller, moves easily between the biblical text, hermeneutics, and the context- it is a surprisingly easy read for such a complex subject. There is a lot of repetition around the main points, but that is understandable, considering that this is a book encouraging a paradigm change in theology of religion and mission.
