Bright Christian

Walter Wink, a noted Christian theologian, presents a scientistic reformulation of God, theology and prayer in his article "The Next Worldview: Spirit at the Core of Everything" (Fellowship, May/June '03). He argues for a more rational, even scientific(-ish) employment of "God" and understanding of Creation, Prayer, Mysticism and even Eternal Life. Starting with an overview of past worldviews, Wink posits that the next worldview will be this, incorporating the scientific, political and sociological inventions of the past century and-a-half and viewing even our religious devotions through that lens.

An article worth reading, and some tremendous sermon material. -CS
