Resident Aliens: Life in the Christian Colony Book

In this bold and visionary ebook, two leading Christian thinkers explore the "alien" status
of Christians in today's world, and offer a compelling new vision of how the Christian church
can regain its vitality, battle its malaise, reclaim its capacity to nourish souls, and stand
firmly against the illusions, pretensions, and eroding values of today's world. Hauerwas and
Willimon call for a radical new understanding of the church. By renouncing the emphasis on
personal psychological categories, they offer a vision of the church as a colony, a holy nation,
a peole, a family standing for sharply focused values in a devalued world.

In this bold and visionary book, two leading Christian thinkers explore the alien status of Christians in today's world. A provocative Christian assessment of culture and ministry for people who know that something is wrong.
