The Party's over

at Greenbelt 2008: Rising Sun

Doug Gay

Saturday

Membership of political parties is falling rapidly in 21st century Britain. Is this a cause for alarm or celebration amongst Christians? Doug Gay explores why 'counting ourselves out' can be a prophetic option for Christians in the UK today and asks what it would take for us to regain our faith in party politics.

Doug Gay is a long term Greenbelter who teaches Practical Theology at the University of Glasgow. His current research focuses on 'emerging church' issues and political theology, especially theology and nationalism.
