With contributions from Anglican scholars from across the worldwide Anglican Communion, this volume reimagines the Anglican Communion as a polycentric and multivocal community serving God's mission.
The Anglican Communion faces many challenges and opportunities as its primary demographic continues to shift to the Global South, and its English and Western cultural and ecclesiological hegemony is increasingly called into question. As a global family of churches, the Anglican Communion has to explore new relationships, power dynamics, and ecclesiological practices as it lives into a postcolonial, multivocal, and polycentric Communion. This hopeful anthology offers theological and ecclesiological analyses, critical reflections on matters of justice and Anglicanism's colonial legacy, as well as missional, and pastoral possibilities for a postcolonial Anglican Communion.Kwok Pui-lan is Distinguished Scholar at Episcopal Divinity School and a past president of the American Academy of Religion.
Ian T. Douglas is retired Bishop Diocesan of the Episcopal Church in Connecticut and former Angus Dun Professor of Mission and World Christianity at Episcopal Divinity School.
