What if true church growth begins by allowing the church to die?
In The Death and Resurrection of the Church, Jeremy Myers proposes that most modern church growth practices are built on faulty premises. Some of these are even rooted in the false promises that Satan offered to Jesus in the wilderness temptations.
If we want the church to grow and thrive, it first needs to die to these false promises. The church must stop striving after strength, power, fame, riches, and glory, and instead follow Jesus into death. Only then will we become the church that Jesus wants.
Since there can be no resurrection without death, the church must die so that it can rise again.
This revised and updated book now includes discussion questions, perfect for a small group setting.

Paperback. Etat : Good. In a day when many are looking for ways to revitalize the church, Jeremy Myers argues that the church should die. The death of the church, however, will not destroy the church, but will allow it to rise to new life in Christ. This is not only because of the universal principle that death precedes resurrection, but also because the church has adopted certain Satanic values and goals and the only way to break free from our enslavement to these values is to die. But death will not be the end of the church, just as death was not the end of Jesus. If the church follows Jesus into death, and even to the hellish places on earth, it is only then that the church will rise again to new life and vibrancy in the Kingdom of God.
