Do you ever wonder about all that space in between churches? Do you ever wonder about the people in that space who never enter your church building? Have you noticed that many, many people are leaving churches to inhabit the space between the churches? Then this is the book for you!
Martin Mostert has done in-depth research through discussing these issues with a "jury" of 12 Urban Ministers of the multicultural Methodist Churches of Cape Town. He ran the insights he received alongside a detailed study of all 2000 pages of John Wesley's Journal. He then put these two streams of insight into a missiological matrix: using theological and sociological tools to generate a way of understanding a complex urban context. In Africa, any given city is partially postmodern, but partially pre-modern; partially post- industrial and partially pre-industrial; rich and poor and multilingual and endlessly fascinating.
The result is not a set of "laws for success". The reader emerges with practical guidelines to "becoming all things to all human beings so that by all means we can save some", as Paul put it (1 Corinthians 9:19-23).
