What does it look like to be an Anabaptist community in the modern world? And
why does it matter?

A new incarnation of Anabaptism is emerging, but not where we might expect. In
the United Kingdom--a post-Christendom context with little historical
Anabaptist presence--Christian communities are embodying fresh expressions of
Anabaptist faith and practice. In this companion to The Naked Anabaptist,
author Stuart Murray identifies twelve common practices of such churches and
communities that are shaped by an Anabaptist vision.

Murray explores how these practices--which include encouraging economic
radicalism in the face of rampant consumerism, truth-telling in a "post-truth"
society, and accountability in an individualistic culture that knows little
about the Christian story--might shape emerging Christian communities and
inspire those seeking fresh expressions as cultural changes accelerate. The
book concludes with three on-the-ground reports from ministry leaders pursuing
this Anabaptist vision in their own post-Christendom contexts.

The New Anabaptists provides foundational resources for followers of Jesus in
many different settings as they rise to the challenge of faithful and radical
discipleship in local communities.
