Close Your Church for Good: Removing Religion to Reveal Jesus
Description:
Close Your Church for Good is a book for churches that want to reach their community with love and service, but feel stuck in the tradition of their current service and program structure. They want to reach others for Jesus, but just don't know how.
Within these pages are concrete, hard-hitting, and risky suggestions for how your church can love your community with nothing more than what you have in your church right now. You don't need to raise funds, hire a new pastor, or attend another conference.
This book challenges you to stop being just another church, and start being a missional community of people who move with power and conviction into the world with the love and grace of Jesus Christ.
This volume contains revised and reworked versions of the following six books by Jeremy Myers:
- Skeleton Church
- The Death and Resurrection of the Church
- Put Service Back into the Church Service
- Dying to Religion and Empire
- Church is More than Bodies, Bucks, and Bricks
- Cruciform Pastoral Leadership
