For Church leaders and laypeople

John McGinley offers a look at what the Church could become

You'll find an encouraging message for your Church's future

Taking a longer, more encouraging, view of the state of the Church today, John McGinley's new book argues that what we are seeing isn't a falling off of faith but a chance to bring new life into the world and the Church.

What if what we are witnessing is not the decline of the Church but it's rebirth?

The rates of decline in church attendance and the ticking demographic timebomb show that business as usual will lead to extinction. But out of these ashes there are countless reasons to hope. Signs and stories emerging from worshipping communities the world over can give us renewed confidence that, as always, God is doing a 'new-old' thing.

The Church that is emerging amid times of uncertainty is growing, alive and demonstrating the qualities of the early church recorded in the New Testament, one that is more diverse, more spirit-filled, more confident in the Gospel, calling, equipping and sending people to make disciples in all nations.

Written for ordained and lay leaders at all levels, this book will help you navigate these changing times in light of the immovable knowledge that God is always on the move.

    This book is full of godly insight and wisdom. It has encouraged and challenged me. If you sense there is more to experience in the family of God read further…

    Having read Gavin and Anne Calver’s ‘Unleashed’ over lockdown, this almost seems to be a partner book aimed more (but not exclusively) at those impacted by the CofE post Living in Love and Faith meltdiwn. Chapters are easily read in one or two sittings and you don’t need a theology degree to understand John’s thought process or bible interpretations. I haven’t quite finished it yet but the only thing that i would say is missing is practical guidance on how one can set up a house church and be covered for worship licensing, safeguarding, spiritual oversight etc.
