The Christian faith is like a family that has set out on the River of what God is doing. Most of us think that we only need to stay in the canoe and enjoy the scenery, but then someone who's never been on a river before decides to stand up and the canoe capsizes. So, we have to drag ourselves to shore, turn our little craft over, and start out again.
Despite the occassional interruption, our journey seems to be going relatively well until we awaken to a nasty surprise. You see, the River of what God is doing carves its way through human history and so it gets choked up with all the shortsightedness, puffed up claims to power and importance, and foolish violence of the human story. When this happens, the current spits us past boulders of abuses of power and the fallen trees of hatred like water shot from a firehose. I'm afraid to say that our little canoe must navigate these unforgiving rapids.
Larson suggests that Christianity in the third millenium can only remain faithful to Jesus if it abandons the values of power, wealth, convenience, and competition. Instead, we must learn to recognize abuses of power and embrace our creaturely limits as we travel together along the River or what God is doing. Along the way, Larson offers a positive vision of how postmodern concerns can point the Church deeper into the Gospel.
