Most Christians think they know what makes people tick. But do
they? If the truth be told, this is often more anecdotal than
factual. Are the unchurched hostile, ill-informed or simply
disengaged? Is it God, Christianity, Christians or the church that
puts people off? Is it people's own lives, their beliefs, attitudes
and habits that prevent them from exploring Christianity? 'The
Responsive Church' aims to find out the answers to these questions
and more. Drawing upon research from London Institute of
Contemporary Christianity, author Nick Spencer explores the
landscape of twenty-first-century religions and spiritual beliefs.
His findings are fascinating. But it doesn't end there. While
listening closely and critically to what people are saying, Graham
Tomlin listens to what God is saying throughout the Bible:
Scripture is after all the touchstone by which we need to measure
all things, the light in which we need to walk. Sometimes listening
to critics of the church helps us to see things we have never
noticed before. And if the voices from outside tell us where we
are, we can expect Scripture to point us to where we need to go
from here. 'Our hope is that this exercise will enable Christians
to become more attuned, both to the God who still speaks to his
church and to those people whom he loves but who do not yet find
church attractive, credible or satisfying, ' write the authors.
'Perhaps by listening to both, it can help bring the two together.'
