What is the Church? Most Americans (Christan or not) seem inclined to describe the Church in terms of what it does or doesn't do, particularly in terms of growth and social impact. The question then becomes, "how is the Church distinct from any other human organization?" We Christians are quick to act but do we know why, and to what end? If we are unclear about our ecclesial identity and mission, we risk being at best charitable or even "radical" without bearing witness to anything different than what the world can already produce. Craig Wong (Grace Fellowship Community Church), Shane Claiborne (the Simple Way), and Jimmy Dorrell (The Church Under the Bridge) each represent very different congregations yet share a common insistence on taking theology of Church seriously.

If we are crazy it is because we refuse to be crazy in the same way the world has gone crazy. This workshop will explore Christianity as a peculiar way of living, looking to the early Christians for wisdom, and to the prophetic imagination of contemporary urban communities of theological pranksters, ghetto poets, geurilla gardeners, and ordinary radical.
