NEW! ON: IS the CHURCH ON TARGET or ON the TOILET? Oct. 2023
Modern thought is in a cultural clash with The Church. Today, more and more folks simply want nothing to do with Christianity. Why? And what can be done to win back the hearts of the "none and dones" who have abandoned the institution, its people and the God who dearly loves them? Within these pages the author looks at twenty-six key issues where today's church may be missing the mark. AND how it might fix its aim to be ON mission once again.
"This book is edgy without being venomous. That's a tough line to walk. This is what correction-in-love looks like." ~Pastor Andy R. Bunch, Path of the Cleric series BUY NOW
