The paradigm of Creation Spirituality offers a fresh approach to our spiritual journeys. In Emerging Word, Donald Schmidt provides both an introduction to Creation Spirituality for those who may not be familiar with it, as well as a quick history of lectionary use in the Christian tradition and an overview of the church year. He then sets out scripture readings for each Sunday and major festival day of the year, based on the four paths of Creation Spirituality as outlined by Matthew Fox and others. Brief commentary for each set of readings provides rationale for the choice, and further invitation to see the world, the church, the Bible, and life in a new way. Whether you are familiar with Creation Spirituality, or simply curious about some of the emerging paradigms being explored in the church today, Emerging Word will challenge you. Less than a statement, Emerging Word is more an invitation to wonder, to contemplate, and to explore the story that the church has told, is telling, and can tell, as it seeks to be relevant in today's world. What is our faith story? Where is it taking us? Where can it take us? Those are the questions Emerging Word places before us.
