How should we do church in a changing world? There's no question
the world is changing. Many churches are changing with it, adopting
new models for ministry: emergent, seeker, purpose-driven,
multisite, and so on. These models have been greeted with
enthusiasm, but also with controversy and criticism. What are we to
make of this? Does Scripture prescribe a standard model for doing
church? Or is there freedom within certain guidelines? In A New
Kind of Church, respected church consultant Aubrey Malphurs
addresses these important questions. The heart of the book outlines
a means for evaluating any church model, including: -a proper way
of interpreting what Scripture says about the local church -a
theology of change -a theology of culture and church -a definition
of the local church This important book is for anyone concerned
with the state of the church, but it is especially valuable for
church leaders considering change in their own churches. "Anyone
who is a student of church health will greatly benefit from the
sage wisdom Malphurs provides. This sort of insight is rare and
valuable. Aubrey helps us confront our assumptions so we can move
toward health and vitality in our congregations."--Alan Nelson,
executive editor, Rev! magazine "A New Kind of Church will
encourage you to think biblically and strategically about the
church in North America today. Aubrey Malphurs loves the church and
its leaders and his insights will inspire."--Ed Stetzer, author,
Breaking the Missional Code Aubrey Malphurs is professor of
pastoral ministries at Dallas Theological Seminary and president of
The Malphurs Group (www.malphursgroup.com). He engages in church
consulting and training and is the author ofmore than fifteen
books, including Planting Growing Churches in the 21st Century.
