Synopsis

Written for those who are trying to nurture authentic faith communities and for those who have struggled to retain their faith, The Tangible Kingdom offers theological answers and real-life stories that demonstrate how the best ancient church practices can re-emerge in today's culture, through any church of any size. In this remarkable book, Hugh Halter and Matt Smay "two missional leaders and church planters" outline an innovative model for creating thriving grass-roots faith communities.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

"Among increasing numbers of faithful, conservative, Bible–believing Christians, an important shift is beginning to occur. These aren′t wild–eyed radicals; they′re solid, established church leaders and members who are asking new questions because deep within they discern that something is wrong with the status quo. Hugh and Matt have been through this shift, and offer wise counsel for a way forward."
BRIAN MCLAREN
author, A New Kind of Christian Trilogy and Everything Must Change

"What makes this book so outstanding is that it is not just another book on theology and theory, but it is rooted in the process of making disciples."
BOB ROBERTS
pastor, NorthWood Church, and author, Transformation, Glocalization, and The Multiplying Church

Praise for THE TANGIBLE KINGDOM

"No matter what kind of church you are seeking to participate in or plant, The Tangible Kingdom will knock you out of your comfortable pew to follow the mission of Jesus to transform your community."
MARK DRISCOLL
author, Confessions of a Reformission Rev. and The Radical Reformission

"Hugh Halter and Matt Smay are not just men of words but of actions. They have broken from the pack of theorizers, philosophers, and abstract theologians by diving into the deeper waters of experimentation, struggle, failure, and success. The results are sharper principles packed with punch because they have been refined in the fires of real life. Take confidence that what they teach will work."
NEIL COLE
church starter; director of Church Multiplication Associates; and author, Organic Church
