Christianity Today Award of Merit Readers' Choice Awards Honorable
Mention Best Books About the Church from Byron Borger, Hearts and
Minds Bookstore "When . . . faith communities begin connecting
together, in and for the neighborhood, they learn to depend on God
for strength to love, forgive and show grace like never before. . .
. The gospel becomes so much more tangible and compelling when the
local church is actually a part of the community, connected to the
struggles of the people, and even the land itself." Paul Sparks,
Tim Soerens and Dwight J. Friesen have seen-in cities, suburbs and
small towns all over North America-how powerful the gospel can be
when it takes root in the context of a place, at the intersection
of geography, demography, economy and culture. This is not a new
idea-the concept of a parish is as old as Paul's letters to the
various communities of the ancient church. But in an age of
dislocation and disengagement, the notion of a church that knows
its place and gives itself to where it finds itself is like a
breath of fresh air, like a sign of new life.
