What if Christian worship took place as a conversation at a round table spread with elements of earth’s gifts of nurture and beauty? This book describes such a practice--Roundtable Worship--and lays out a fresh and challenging theological foundation for it. Central to this foundation is the struggle to reconstruct the images of governance and justice that have always lain at the heart of a worship shaped by biblical traditions. Drawing on the practice of circle conversations at the heart of movements for reconciliation and restorative justice, Everett presents a theological vision rooted in biblical covenant-making, a social image of the Trinity, and an understanding of the church as ''the covenanted public of Christ’s Spirit.'' Roundtable worship provides a hospitable setting where people can begin to give deeper voice to their life, listen appreciatively to each other’s longing for reconciliation, and anticipate in imagination and action a renewed public life beyond the angry and violent polarizations of our age.

  • God’s Federal Republic
    William Johnson Everett
    Biblical religion is driven by a longing for God’s ultimate order of justice and peace. Most of this longing is steeped in the patriarchal symbols of kingship, monarchs, lords, fathers, and princes.
