Dangerous Church

Dangerous ChurchDangerous Church:
Risking Everything to Reach Everyone
By John Bishop (Zondervan)

“Next-generation churches that are reaching lost people and making a difference in their communities understand that they often must die to programs, methods, traditions and structures that sustain the status quo at the expense of the unchurched. Emerging generations just aren’t interested in another program. They want to see Jesus just as much as they want to hear about Him. They want to know what His teachings and way of life look like in their own context. They want to serve their community, not just themselves, and they want to see followers of Christ working together, not competing. Changing the way we do church to reach people like this will likely cost us something.” —John Bishop, from the book
