Mission-shaped Church was a ground-breaking publication that has sold well over 17,000 copies and has re-shaped the agenda for mission, evangelism and church growth for good. But maybe you are struggling to work out how to apply the theory in practical terms? If so, help is at hand!
Moving on in a mission-shaped church is a 16-page booklet that will help you to practically apply the concepts of Mission-shaped Church in your local context. Ideal for PCCs, house groups and deanery synods, it outlines how you can creatively respond to the challenges your church or diocese face and suggests ways of moving forward in fresh directions.
'God calls us to help people in every place and culture respond to the love and grace in his Son, Jesus Christ. To do that well in our time we need to grow many different fresh expressions of church life within and alongside our traditional parish churches: a mixed economy. I hope that every Church Council and home group in the land will engage creatively with this material and take action as a result.' Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury
The booklets are sold in packs of 5.
