It's a Dance

It's a Dance

By Patrick Oden

Luke is a journalist at a local newspaper in Southern California doing a series of articles on churches in the area. As he interviews Nate, pastor of a nontraditional church that operates a pub, he learns more why than who, what, when, and where.

Patrick Oden uses a fictitious church and fictitious people to write a nonfiction book about the Holy Spirit. Oden destroys the myth that solid Christian doctrine is only communicated in a didactic style. The personalities of the people and the conversational style turn theology into an enlightening, fascinating read.

In the book's foreword, Alan Hirsch says It's a Dance "represents a very unusual and, dare I say, somewhat postmodern way of exploring a very complex and much-debated topic for the church....The doctrine of the Holy Spirit is a subject not often explored in so-called Emerging Missional Church (EMC) circles. But that is precisely the problem....The truth is that I can't think of one text from the ever-increasing EMC stable that even gets close to addressing the issues touched on in this sensitive work by Patrick Oden."
