Home of God

<p>We live in the midst of a crisis of home. It is evident in the massive uprooting and migration of millions across the globe in the anxious nationalism awaiting immigrants in their destinations in the unhoused populations in wealthy cities in the fractured households of families and in the worldwide destruction of habitats and international struggles for dominance. It is evident perhaps more quietly but just as truly in the aching sense that there is nowhere we truly belong.<br/><br/>In this moment the Christian faith has been disappointingly inept in its response. We need a better witness to the God who created loves and reconciles this world who comes to dwell among us.<br/><br/>This book tells the "story of everything" in which God creates the world as the home for humans and for God in communion with God's creatures. The authors render the story of creation redemption and consummation through the lens of God's homemaking work and show the theological fruit of telling the story this way. The result is a vision that can inspire creative Christian living in our various homes today in faithfulness to God's ongoing work.</p>
