Church on Purpose: Reinventing, Discipleship, Community, & Justice

This collection offers one big idea from each of an array of emerging Christian leaders who are invested in addressing some of the concerns of today’s church. The contributors share insights from their generational and vocational perspectives, critically engaging in dialogue and debate the traditional models of ministry and leadership. While appreciating what they have inherited, the authors display their faith in congregations’ ability to change and adapt. Topics include discipleship issues such as Sunday school, intergenerational worship settings, and evangelism; redefinition of community through strategic planning, ecumenical partnerships, and communication in a larger world; and pursuit of justice through inclusion of the poor and the prisoner. Recognizing the generational shift within congregations across the country and anticipating areas of church life that require attention or reform, this volume offers possibilities for new directions within Christian communities.
