The general decline of American mainline Protestant churches today
is well documented. Church redevelopment imagining and actualizing
new life for dying churches is a productive and vital response to
congregational decline, but it can be daunting. Here is guidebook
for church leaders, to help them reinvigorate their churches with
both practical advice and tested theory. A comprehensive case study
of Beneficent Congregational Church, which successfully turned the
tide and quadrupled its worship attendance, provides inspiration as
well as concrete strategies for church redevelopment. The study
indicates that successful and faithful church redevelopment
involves a shift from a modern-patronage ministry model to a
postmodern-plural ministry model. Building on current church
redevelopment literature by bringing selected Biblical and
theological texts into conversation with leadership concepts,
systems theory, social sciences, and congregational studies, this
book creates a multidisciplinary transformative conversation. The
result is both strategic proposals for growing your church and a
model for doing practical theology in your own ministry context.
Dedicated, trained leadership in cooperation with the power of the
Spirit can create the possibility of new life in dying
congregations."
