This "miscellany" puts readers around the table with a teacher who has provided the church with wisdom and passion and introduces a new voice to the ongoing conversation about the relationship between the gospel and culture. Andrew Walker's "ecclesial intelligence" and broad interdisciplinary approach to theology and sociology will undoubtedly capture the imagination of many who are curious about the church's mission in the modern West.

Notes from a Wayward Son represents a broad sampling of Walker's writings from a distinguished forty-five-year career--from explorations of Pentecostalism and Charismatic Renewal to Eastern Orthodoxy, C. S. Lewis, and Deep Church; from the impact of modernity on the ecclesia to mission and ecumenism in the West today. In a world and a church often driven by the latest fashions, Walker's is a voice to which we will want to listen!

Industry Reviews

"Andrew Walker inhabits the life of the mind with rare clarity and insight. He probes and tests the dynamics of contemporary Christianity with innumerable shafts of constructive insight, making sense of theological, sociological, and cultural dynamics. He has the intellectual gifts to understand Christians with whom he cannot fully agree in ways that help them and those unlike them better understand themselves. Andrew's contribution to the academy and the church is profound and admirable." -Rob Warner, Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive, Plymouth Marjon University

"There are very few scholars who bring together genuine experience and appreciation of the Charismatic movement, Pentecostalism, and Eastern Orthodoxy, along with a sensitivity to the currents running through the wider church across the world. Andrew Walker does this and more in this fascinating collection of pieces touching on his extraordinary wide-raging interests. There is much here to stimulate and to instruct-it is forthright yet sensitive, perceptive yet pastoral." -Graham Tomlin, Bishop of Kensington, President of St Mellitus College

"The second edition of Notes from a Wayward Son highlights the ground-breaking work of Andrew Walker, bringing together his expertise in sociology and his commitment to orthodox trinitarian theology." -Pete Ward, Professor of Practical Theology, University of Durham
