“The biggest problem facing Christian theology is not translation but enactment… the necessity of the church being a community of people who embody our language about God, where talk about God is used without apology because our life together does not mock our words. * * * Christianity is more than a matter of a new understanding. Christianity is an invitation to be part of an alien people who make a difference because they see something that cannot be otherwise seen without Christ. Right living is more than the challenge of right thinking. The challenge is not the intellectual one but the political one—the creation of a new people who have aligned themselves with the seismic shift that has occurred in the world since Christ.” Resident Aliens
