Aprašymas
An unprecedented examination of Christianity in contemporary New York: its celebrated leaders, unsung heroes and theological complexities.
Weaving together theology, history, philosophy and first-hand accounts, this is the story of Christianity in New York: from Sodom and Gomorrah on the Hudson to the Postsecular City. Tracing the history of Christianity from the city's founding through to the present day, Christians in the City of New York renders Christianity visible amidst the dense urban landscape.
Through comprehensive documentation of Christian communities in every nook and cranny of New York City, meticulous analyses of census data and over 15,000 religious sites, New York's sacred spaces and religious networks are brought to the forefront in this comprehensive documentation of the city's Christian communities. The complexities and diversities of Christian life in New York are explored, from close examinations of the relationship between Christian leadership and politics, to dynamics of family, gender and education among New York Christians, to faith-based businesses and social services, to Christianity and the arts.
The Christians of New York city, as this book demonstrates, are growing and touching every aspect of city life, their influence felt around the world. In its close investigation of what this may mean for the Postsecular world, Christians in the City of New York is a fascinating, sweeping, look at the most theologically complex city in the world.
