TIRED, UPSET, STUCK OR EVEN CYNICAL OF THE CHURCH?Dr. Jeff Baxter understands the brokenness of the local church; but he has also experienced the beauty of true Christian Community. Whether you have attended a local church, still do or you are a pastor or leader trying to bring health and healing, Creating Healthy Churches is your help. Join Jeff on a spiritual adventure through Gods' Creation that will revitalize your hope in the body of Christ and bring practical tools to repairing your local church. You will learn to ask provocative questions about harmony between Creation and community, exploring the myriad of connections between the purpose of the local church and water streams.It is time to help the local church recover from her brokenness and become beautiful once again. PRAISE FOR CREATING HEALTHY CHURCHES: The church never has been and never will be perfect. Nonetheless, the church is God's means of grace to an all-too-often graceless world. Dr. Jeff Baxter has experienced the church in its grace and as a disgrace. He has lived with its pains and pleasures. While he has found the institution of the church to be battered and broken, he takes solace in the church as the beautiful bride of Christ. In From Broken to Beautiful, Baxter pulls back the bride's veil, exposing the warts and blemishes that we all know she has, not to shame her, but to help us love her for who she is, not what we imagine her to be only in our dreams. Dr. Kyle Greenwood, Administrative Director of the Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership, Development Associates International, Affiliate Faculty of Old Testament, Denver Seminary and Fuller Theological Seminary. Creating Healthy Churches is a book that is badly needed. The church gets a bad rap today; often it is justified. But Dr. Baxter has written something that needs to be taken to heart for anyone who has seen the church at its worst, especially those who have been "burned" by the church, the Bride of Christ. This is a must read for anyone who needs to have their faith in the church restored and renewed.Dr. David Mathewson, New Testament Faculty Denver Seminary
