Descriere
‘As
St.
John
of
the
Cross
said:
“Mission
is
putting
love
where
love
is
not.”
This
book
is
full
of
ideas.
It
should
prompt
us
all
to
examine
the
effectiveness
of
the
way
local
churches
are
organized.’
—The
Most
Reverend
and
Right
Honourable
Dr.
John
Sentamu,
Archbishop
of
York
‘Everything
that
Steve
Chalke
writes
is
insightful
and
cutting-edge.
Here
he
argues
in
favor
of
a
church
that
thinks
and
acts
in
ways
that
make
the
Kingdom
of
God
visible
and
reasonable
in
a
secular
society.’
--Tony
Campolo,
PhD
Eastern
University,
Pennsylvania,
USA
The
task
of
the
Church
is
“to
be
the
irrefutable
demonstration
and
proof
of
the
fact
that
God
is
love,”
claims
Steve
Chalke.
An
intelligent
church
intentionally
connects
the
Bible
and
its
twenty-first-century
culture,
is
authentic
and,
most
importantly,
has
thought
through
its
practice.
In
other
words,
the
way
it
does
church
is
a
reflection
of
its
understanding
of
who
God
is.
This
foundational
issue
must
be
addressed
by
pastors,
church
and
ministry
leaders,
small
group
leaders
and
others
as
we
continue
to
grapple
with
the
shape
of
effective
church
in
the
postmodern,
post-Christian
West.
As
Chalke
unpacks
central
theological
concepts,
such
as
the
incarnation,
human
sinfulness
and
the
Trinity,
he
points
us
to
the
corresponding
characteristics
of
an
intelligent
church,
such
as
inclusiveness,
messiness
and
diversity.
Each
thought-provoking
chapter
concludes
with
a
‘Yes
but
How?’
section,
which
gives
practical
suggestions
for
moving
your
church
along
this
path.
