Revolution in the Church, a follow-up to Michael Brown's previous book Revolution! The Call to Holy War, takes a thought-provoking look at the need for spiritual revolution in the church and ultimately the world. Brown exposes erroneous beliefs and practices and challenges believers to make radical changes in their ways of thinking and doing. Provocative and hard-hitting, Revolution in the Church stresses that large-scale change is needed for today's church to "put into practice some key teachings of the Reformation that are yet to be fully implemented, and to bring reformation that the Reformation never envisioned." It discusses the meaning of true discipleship, calls believers to recover the Jewish roots of their faith, shows how and why radical, absolute obedience to Jesus is considered cultlike by the mainstream church, and much more. Young people wanting to overturn the spiritual status quo and longing for God to revolutionize their spiritual lives will find this book's challenging message a welcome corroboration of the revolution already taking place in many congregations. Others will hear it as a wake-up call. Christians active in the revival movement, including intercessors, pastors, and other church leaders, will find Brown's dynamic content and lively writing style a catalyst for spearheading large-scale change in the contemporary church.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
"Revolution is not 'rebelution.' It is birthed in the spirit and through a right heart. It is the same radical call to live as Jesus did. . . . This book is not for contented pew-sitters or self-satisfied leaders but for humble, hungry hearts who want more of Jesus." Dr. Ché Ahn, senior pastor, Harvest Rock Church, Pasadena, California Are you tired of the spiritual status quo? Are you convinced that something is wrong with the "religious system"? Would you like to help spearhead large-scale change? Then you are holding the right book. Revolution in the Church looks at the need for a spiritual revolution not only in the Church but ultimately in the world. In a dynamic and lively writing style, Dr. Michael Brown exposes erroneous practices and beliefs popular today, challenging you to make some radical transformations. He explores the biblical pattern of leadership, what is and is not cult-like, the meaning of true discipleship, the Jewish roots of our faith, and other provocative issues facing the Church today. With its timely and revealing message, Revolution in the Church will be a welcome corroboration of the revolution already taking place in your church-or a penetrating wake-up call to action.

A Challenge To Repent and Seek Jesus in Truth!,
By
This review is from: Revolution in the Church: Challenging the Religious System with a Call for Radical Change (Paperback)
Dr. Michael Brown holds nothing back in this book. He lays it all out for the reader to see. It seems nothing sacred is left untouched in this book from our prayerlessness, apathy at winning souls, our attitude toward revival, and our status quo Christianity. Dr. Brown takes the sword of the Spirit and drives it deep into the heart (Ephesians 6:17; Hebrews 4:12).
The book will challenge you if you are satisfied with your Christian life. I believe we should never come to a place where we are "happy in Jesus." We should always be hungry for more of God's Spirit in us, desperate for the presence of God in our fellowships, and praying earnestly for the lost. Dr. Brown puts his finger on all that holds back the presence of God. He is hungry for Jesus to be lifted up in His Church as the true head (Colossians 1:15-18; 1 Timothy 6:15-16). This book stirs up the cry for true repentance and a hunger for holiness in the Church of Christ. A great book for all true disciples of Jesus.

We need a REVOLUTION!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Revolution in the Church: Challenging the Religious System with a Call for Radical Change (Paperback)
This book was an eye opener for me, even after graduating from F.I.R.E. (Dr Brown's school). In the past I had a bad attitude toward the church, as it is right now. But in this book Dr Brown shows that having an attitude isn't going to help anything. We must love each other, this is what the church is about. But instead the American church has turned into a bunch of backbiters, complainers and gossipers, just what Paul warned us not to become in the New Testament. We need a revolution in the church!!!

Challenging,
By
This review is from: Revolution in the Church: Challenging the Religious System with a Call for Radical Change (Paperback)
If you have read John Bevere's Book on "Under Cover" then you need to read this book. John Bevere brings good points but this book will bring other points that Bevere does not address.
