5.0 out of 5 stars A vital resource for all faith communities., December 31, 1998
By A Customer
Dr. Friend offers a unique and compelling approach for revitalization of faith communities that is spiritually grounded. Though it is concrete and specific in the guidance it offers, it challenges congregations -- members and leaders -- to identify and explore individual and corporate "sacred center". Acknowledging that "sacred center" is hard to define, the author invites exploration of the deepest essence of both the person and the organization. This book is most helpful when read and discussed by a core group of people in the community. The book is based on the author's experience with dozens of churches and judicatories across 8 denominations. While courageously realistic, it offers the reader hope grounded in fresh alternatives to the discouragement that characterizes so many congregations today. Real stories from real people are at the heart of this important book.
