Many people define church as a place and time where people
gather, a way for ministry money to be given and spent, and a
building in which people regularly meet on Sunday mornings.
In this book, author and blogger Jeremy Myers shows that church
is more than bodies, bucks, and bricks.
Church is the people of God who follow Jesus into the world, and
we can be the church no matter how many people we are with, no
matter the size of our church budget, and regardless of whether we
have a church building or not.
By abandoning our emphasis on more people, bigger budgets, and
newer buildings, we may actually liberate the church to better
follow Jesus into the world.
In a day when many are looking for ways to revitalize the church,
Jeremy Myers argues that the church should die.
The death of the church, however, will not destroy the church, but
will allow it to rise to new life in Christ.
This is not only because of the universal principle that death
precedes resurrection, but also because the church has adopted
certain Satanic values and goals and the only way to break free
from our enslavement to these values is to die.
But death will not be the end of the church, just as death was not
the end of Jesus. If the church follows Jesus into death, and even
to the hellish places on earth, it is only then that the church
will rise again to new life and vibrancy in the Kingdom of God.
