| Summary: | The dream of restoring primitive Christianity lies close to the core of the identity of some American denominations-Churches of Christ, Latter-Day Saints, some Mennonites, and a variety of Holiness and Pentecostal denominations. But how can a return to ancient Christianity be sustained in a world increasingly driven by modernization? What meaning might such a vision have in the modern world? Twelve distinguished scholars explore these and related questions in this provocative book. |
