Synopsis

This accessible book offers a practical theology of evangelism and the local church. The basic theme is that we need provocative churches which raise the question asked by the onlookers in Acts 2:12: What does it all mean?

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

The Provocative Church is about an evangelism that begins with the kingdom, not the Church. Graham Tomlin helps us see that the New Testament, while not saying much about evangelism itself, does have an awful lot to say about new life in Christ. The work of the Church is to demonstrate what this new life looks like. This in turn will provoke a response, and it is in the dialogue that follows that real evangelism takes place. [This volume] is one of the best, most honest, most theologically grounded and therefore most practically helpful books on evangelism to have come out in recent years. --Stephen Cottrell, Bishop of Chelmsford

A refreshingly honest book from a theologian who clearly knows that most of society doesn t think the way the church does, and wants to do something about it. --Church of England Newspaper

Out of the many Christian books published each year, only a few are outstanding. Of those, very few have the capacity to be radical and important to the life of the church. This is one of those rare books if you only read one book on evangelism this year, make it The Provocative Church. --Good News

Présentation de l'éditeur

David Adam has spent a lifetime exploring the depths of God's love, and this richly contemplative collection of new prayers and meditations draws us very near to the heart of the Trinity. Based on 'the prayer of seven directions' Encompassing God seeks to increase our awareness of being held by God. We are nurtured at every moment of our existence in the encompassing love of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Whatever we might be facing, we can trust that God is before us and behind us. He is on our right and on our left; above us, beneath us - and gloriously alive within.
