| Zusammenfassung: | This paper reflects on Philip Jenkins’s three-part work, The Next Christendom, The New Faces of Christianity, and Europe’s Religious Crisis and brings Jenkins into conversation with the Vatican II document, Nostra Aetate, with a view to mapping out new and meaningful ways of engaging Islam in dialogue as Christianity continues to make its inexorable movement southward. Using Jenkins’s work as an entry point for a new way of being Church in a contemporary global context, the paper argues that the new Christian expansion should be understood along the lines of Bernard Lonergan’s ‘achievement of common meaning.’ Because the transformation has been realized by the collaborative efforts of individuals and communities, what is needed is for the believing Christians to appropriate and engage Nostra Aetate in a way that meets the changing needs of our time. |
