Jesus is present here and now, Christians have always affirmed. But how are we to understand his present activity in a challenging, post-Christian context? In what ways is he at work in our congregational worship, pastoral care, preaching--and even our board meetings? At a time when many feel uncertain about the future of the church, What Is Jesus Doing? brings together leading thinkers in pastoral theology, homiletics, liturgical theology, and missiology in a compelling resource for pastors and theologians. Emphasizing the reality of Jesus both as the resurrected, ascended Christ and as present and active today, the contributors consider how to recognize the divine presence and join in what God is already doing in all areas of church ministry. Contributors include:

David Fergusson
Dwight J. Zscheile
Scott J. Hagley
Craig Barnes
Roger Owens
Anthony B. Robinson
Will Willimon
Andrew Root
John D. Witvliet
Nicholas Wolterstorff
Angela Dienhart Hancock
Trygve D. Johnson

With deep theological reflection, personal stories, and practical suggestions, this interdisciplinary conversation invites leaders to remember that the church is first of all God's project, not ours--and that this truth should fill us with hope.
