Fresh Expressions of Church

Simple, practical and creative approach to doing church. I love the clarity in which this little books outlines. This is the best way to get a taste of what a fresh expression of church could look like.

The best books are often small books. The bast ideas are often simple and clear once shared. This little book raises a very simple and effective method of meeting people where they are while sharing the person and work of Jesus Christ in a way that is relevant and on terms they can understand and apply. My only complaint is they seem driven to explain at some length what Fresh Expressions isn't, then have a circuitous path of scattershot examples leading to what it is. No matter how the impetus begins, as a group forms and grows it will need structure at many levels and eventually become "church". Which is fine and may indeed look different in 20 years than it did 20 years ago. But the author and this movement are simply and wisely applying classic Christian methods of sharing the faith in our time and context. Well said!

Quick read. Nice overview.

Well done inspiring

This books gives a brief overview of a new and different way to do ministry that would be hard for some and exciting for others

Easy read. Practical steps. Helps give a shift in thinking about church. Great book for church folks who really want to reach into their community and “be church” in a meaningful way.
