ABSTRACT

This short final reflection offers some thoughts concerning the prospects for the kind of ecclesiology and theology argued for in this book. Having named the distinguishing features of the disclosed ecclesiology in terms of ‘epiphanies’, the chapter goes on to refer to the continuing work in theological action research as a sign of its ongoing life. The chapter is concluded by expressions of hopes for this way of doing ecclesiology, with particular emphasis being placed on the problem of getting the more institutional aspects of church to join the conversation.
