Pilgrims and Priests
Book • 2019
In 'Pilgrims and Priests,' Stefan Paas examines how churches in the secular West can rethink mission when cultural memory of Christianity fades.
He uses the motif of pilgrimage and exile to argue for faithful witness from the margins rather than attempts to reclaim cultural power.
The book offers theological and practical reflection for church planters and leaders facing apatheism and secularization.
Paas highlights practices of formation, worship, and small-scale ‘niches’ of hope as ways the church can testify to God’s eschatological reign.
Throughout, he emphasizes identity maintenance, doxology, and relational evangelism as central to mission in a post-Christian context.
