What Would Jesus Deconstruct?

This provocative book offers a lively rereading of Charles Sheldon's In His Steps as a constructive way forward. John D. Caputo introduces the notion of why the church needs deconstruction, positively defines deconstruction's role in renewal, deconstructs idols of the church, and imagines the future of the church in addressing the practical implications of this for the church's life through liturgy, worship, preaching, and teaching. Students of philosophy, theology, religion, and ministry, as well as others interested in engaging postmodernism and the emerging church phenomenon, will welcome this provocative, non-technical work. Winner of the Gold Award in ForeWord Magazine's 2007 Book of the Year Awards.

This book also includes a discussion of ikon, the Belfast faith collective that I formed.
