What did Jesus intend church to be?
Whether you are a seasoned veteran of doing church or a postmodern seeker
of spirituality, In Search of the Church will inspire you to settle for nothing
less than an authentic experience of church the way Jesus intended it to be.
- Filled with humorous and sometimes heart-rending stories that will help
you rethink the meaning of church.
- Asks foundational questions about how we have historically done church
to cause you to refocus on answering the "why" question.
- Offers specific ideals of what church could be, to exhort you to reconsider
how you might reform church in the future.
- Presents an honest examination of the affects of church on the author's
journey, to encourage you to re-examine your own pilgrimage into the
church.
In Search of the Church will revive your hope for the church Jesus intended.
