Faith in a Postmodern World with Dr. Peter Rollins.
The Anglican Diocese of Edmonton is partnering with Taylor University College & Seminary, Urban Bridge Church (P.A.O.C.), and Interface Worship, in bringing Peter Rollins to Edmonton for a series of events. As an author, public speaker, working philosopher, creator of theo-dramas, and founder of the experimental collective Ikon, Dr. Rollins is an innovative and important voice for emerging Christianity.
"Here in pregnant bud is the rose, the emerging new configuration, of a Christianity that is neither Roman nor Protestant, neither Eastern nor monastic; but rather is the re-formation of all of them. Here, in pregnant bud, is third-millennium Christendom." —Phyllis Tickle, author of "The Divine Hours TM" series, and "The Great Emergence", commenting on Rollin's book, "How (Not) to Speak of God"
