Church Turned Inside OutChurch Turned Inside Out:
A Guide for Designers, Refiners and Re-Aligners
By Linda Bergquist and Allan Karr (Jossey-Bass/Leadership Network, 2009)
“The Church must learn to do something that is tantamount to building an airplane while in flight; it cannot stop what it is already doing to experiment with new approaches. Thus, some must refine and re-align on the basis of already existing models, while others, the designers, find ways to radically rethink church.” –Linda Bergquist and Allan Karr, from the book
