Product Description
Packed with timely reminders and exhortations, this will be a welcome book for church leaders and those seeking a new vision for the church of the 21st Century. "It is generally agreed, by most people that inhabit the pulpits or the pews, that the church is in trouble. It has reached an impasse... [We have built] a way of church that has become bounded within a construct, a company or, in some instances, a corporation.......This book is about the history and nature of that construct. It also seeks to track the journey of transition that the people of God need to take...at this time. It does this by looking at the incarnation of Christ from the perspective of his engagement of the power structures, both earthly and angelic, of his day. (From the Preface) This is the challenge issued by James Thwaites in Renegotiating the Church Contract, as he takes an in-depth look at the struggles and pressures the church is facing in this postmodern era. Taking us within the walls of the collapsing church, we follow the author on the journey of transition that the people of God need to take. Thwaites aligns Christ's own death and resurrection with the death and the life of the 21st Century church.
