A transformation of North American Christianity is necessary and possible;
We
can grow beyond our historic collusion with structures of empire and violence
in ecclesial, cultural and political realms;
We can grow congregations
that are genuine communities of peace, nonviolence and true humanity
as revealed in the ministry and person of Jesus;
Our means for such
transformation include spiritual formation and education for laity and clergy rooted
in the theological and anthropological understandings made available through
mimetic theory.
