FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Do you have a nagging feeling that somethings missing from your church experience? Youre not alone. And its time to discover a better way. Church-reform advocate and Bible scholar Peter DeHaan, PhD is a strong proponent of meaningful Christian community. In Jesuss Broken Church, he uses Scripture to guide us into right practices and away from the off-track customs that most every church adheres to. The problem is that todays church follows an Old Testament model. We go to a building where we have professional clergy serve as our liaison between us and God. Then we pay for the whole thing with our tithes and offerings-just like Moses instructed. But Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament. Through him we are the church, we are living stones. We dont need to go to a building. As the church, we take it with us wherever we go. And we dont need paid clergy either. Each of us serves as priests to one another. Or at least we should. In Jesuss Broken Church, youll discover: How Jesus moves us from an Old Testament understanding to New Testament enlightenmentThe early churchs approach to their meetings, which we neglect to follow todayEssential New Testament practices that are more important than song and sermonBiblical ideas to inform the activities of our spiritual communitiesSeven religious concepts that require reformation If you happen to like how your church functions, then dont buy this book. It will only make you mad. But if you sometimes leave your Sunday service feeling let down, that something is lacking and there must be more, then this book can guide you into a new direction.
