Description: |
Study Guide included. Can we look to the church for inspiration to guide us through today's frustrating and difficult times? To answer this question, Owens presents stories of churches that are actually becoming communities where there are bright signs of hope for a new age. Each story shows how God's presence working within the congregation is bringing men and women to a knowledge of Christ in distinctive ways. These churches are a cross section of the American Christian community. They represent congregations of various sizes, are located both small towns and big cities, belong to different denominations, and come from different ethnic and racial backgrounds. You'll read the experiences as told by members of the church. Then you'll get the viewpoint of an outside observer to provide an impartial perspective. Each story not only offers inspiration and encouragement, but also suggest practical ways congregations may renew their ministries under God's guidance. An excellent resource for pastors and church leaders concerned about meeting the spiritual needs of people in their communities. |
