Description
What if entry into the Kingdom is child-shaped precisely because God is? Exposing the ways that ‘adult’ assumptions skew our understanding of who God is, God the Child opens up a new way of conceiving the church’s vocation and the horizon to which we are oriented. Insodoing, the book points to a reconfigured God: one who is omnipresent and yet small, omnipotent but weak, and omniscient but always curious. It argues that as the church seeks to engage with issues around empire, economic injustice or ecological breakdown, it will need to become more and more like God the Child.
