“What’s wrong with our churches? Many wonder if the church we read about in Acts is vastly different from what we see today. This book explores those differences and highlights the pagan aspects that have been incorporated into many of our services. It challenges ministers and followers of Christ to dare to be different and asks questions about the purpose of the church. What happens to people when they fall under the institutional spell? Should we return to house churches? How does a lack of understanding about grace affect our function? Why do we live under a coalition of Law and Grace as though they were compatible? David Wilkerson’s statement, “the true church is not a denomination, a group, a local church, but in fact a spiritual entity that will one day rise up and leave institutional members untouched and left behind,” resonates with many.
Is the institutional church still fit for purpose for the future?
The drop in Church funding, The grey haired decline. This book is an exploration of these themes and an invitation to join the conversation with congregations about the future of the institutional church.”
