CHAPTER

Emergent Church Dynamics in a Postmodern World

It emphasizes the concept of epistemic humility and contrasts American-centric approaches with transnational perspectives to encourage deeper global engagement. The chapter advocates for an evolving ecclesiology that acknowledges the complexities of cultural interactions and the responsibilities of emerging church communities in addressing pressing global issues.
