The Passionate Church: The Art Of Life-Changing Discipleship (Life Shape, The Language Of Leadership)

For the past decade it has become apparent that the modern church models and methods are no longer effective. The seeker-sensitive movement of the 90's is ineffective. The high control/low accountability systems are not working. The preoccupation with programs, property and products is "missing the mark". Churches are not places where post-moderns will go to get their religious goods and services as modern consumers did. There's a new day dawning with unprecedented opportunities to transform our churches from the inside out. That is what this book, "The Passionate Church", is all about. Written for pastors and leaders. ("A Passionate Life" was written by the same authors for the layperson/seeker.)
