Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
National headlines regularly herald the decline of Christianity in the United States, citing historically low levels of confidence in organized religion, drops in church attendance, church closures, and the dramatic rise of the 'Nones.' Scarcely heard are stories from the thousands of new churches and new forms of church that are springing up each year across the country. In this book, Christopher James attends carefully to stories of ecclesial innovation taking place in Seattle, Washingtona city on the leading edge of trends shaping the nation as a whole. James's study of the new churches founded in this 'postChristian' city offers both theological reflection and pragmatic advice. After an indepth survey and interviewbased analysis of the different models of churchplanting he encountered, James identifies five threads of practical wisdom: 1) embracing local identity and mission, 2) cultivating embodied, experiential, everyday spirituality, 3) engaging community life as means of witness and formation, 4) prioritizing hospitality as a cornerstone practice, and 5) discovering ecclesial vitality in a diverse ecclesial ecology. Stimulating, encouraging, and stereotypeshattering, this book invites readers to reconsider the narrative that portrays these first decades of the twentyfirst century as a period of ecclesial death and decline, and to view our time instead as a hopefilled season of ecclesial renewal and rebirth.
