Thrive. Ideas to lead the church in post-Christendom. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780995037625)

You already know the problem. Christianity in North America has been pushed to the margins. Society is less religious, church attendance is mostly stagnant, resources are drying up, and leaders are struggling to find answers to stop the exodus. Most of the ideas addressing these challenges rely on reclaiming Christendom, a time when the church could rest at the centre of cultural attention. But we can't go back in time. Rather, we need to move forward with new ideas.

"Thrive", is a guide to help unlock features in you, and your church, to emerge as leaders and co-creators in our cities, neighborhoods, and beyond. With the increasing number of people claiming no religious affiliation, it may be surprising to learn core values like purpose, justice, spirituality, and love remain important. The stage is set. Today's culture presents a great opportunity for the church that seeks to live out the Gospel in a post-Christian world.

It's time to live out the fullness of God's dream for you and the church. Respond to the call to join the unfolding mission in your midst.
