Summary/Abstract: This article represents a description of the most contemporary worldview beyond postmodernism (post-postmodernism) and its impact on Christian faith. Some tenets of this worldview like performatism, new transcendency and the reconstruction of utopia are interrelated with basic presuppositions of Christianity. In 21st century post-postmodernism may serve as an opportunity for Christians who realize that the contemporary world is interested in openness to the transcendental otherworldliness. The concept of the power of God becomes the metaphor by which Christian faith may enter the dialogue with post-postmodernism and by which the new opportunity for noninvasive and tolerant form of evangelism may arouse the Church to new action.
