The Empty Church: Theater, Theology, and Bodily Hope
Craigo-Snell, Shannon (Professor of Theology, Professor of Theology, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY)
Why go to church? What happens in church and why does it matter? This book presents fresh answers to these questions by creating an interdisciplinary conversation among performance studies, theater directors, and Christian theologians. The result is a compelling depiction of church as a performative relationship with Jesus Christ, mediated by Scripture, in hope of the Holy Spirit.
