| Résumé : |
‘All over the world the church has started to come home. It has been away for a long, long time.’
Where does the future lie for the institutional church? What can be done for the increasing number of people who are dissatisfied with it or who can no longer find a home there? How can we recover the heart of corporate worship and a dynamic for transforming the world? Drawing on their own experience of home church life — and that of other independent, interdenominational or congregation-based home churches - the authors focus on a missing dimension in contemporary church life. In very practical ways they show how this can be recovered by any congregation or group who wish to deepen their relationship with God and one another, develop a distinctive Christian lifestyle and integrate worship with everyday life. |
