Reseña del libro "Vocãtiõ: Imaging a Visible Church (en Inglés)"

Peter Block writes in the foreword: "This book is a prophetic invitation to reimagine the functioning of the church. It calls us, first, to follow a more authentic and communal way of being a church together and, second, to activate the church into healing the wounded-ness of our culture by restoring our neighborliness in community." In order for us to understand the future shape of vocations in the church we must first wrestle with the vocation of the church itself. I have attempted to do both in Vocãtiõ. I believe that God has a mission. God's mission has a church--a community--and we are that community of beloved apostles. As such, how do we stop fumbling over institutional trappings and get to the business of our mission? What are the theological and spiritual imperatives that mark the work before us? And what are the economies that force us to rely on outdated models of being and doing church? I have explored these questions in previous books, sharing the conversations I have been having as a priest and then bishop of the Episcopal Church with my diocese and beyond. I have come to believe that some aspects of our formation for the future lie in how the Church functioned in the past. I believe firmly that there is a great tide that washes through the Church both from the past and the future. If we look carefully at our past, we can see the seeds of our own becoming. I believe that the Holy Spirit draws us forward. Discernment and conversation, cost what they will and lead where they may, are essential for leadership and strategy. All of creation flows out of the community of the Divine Trinity and is a reciprocation, a return to God, of this divine gift. We are part of that eternal return. Yet, as an institution filled with people, we also wander adrift, blown by winds that lead us elsewhere. (Ephesians 4:14) In every age, therefore, we examine the faith we have received in order to make necessary course corrections to ensure that we are traveling with the tide of God's Spirit and not futilely rowing against it.
