Many mainstream and evangelical Christian denominations are in steep decline. The forces leading toward denominational decline have been underestimated by religious leaders and scholars. In this book, Patrick examines one denomination in particular and asks whether this denomination born as a reformation movement in the nineteenth century still has a future?Beginning at the cemetery where his greatgrandfather is buried, Patrick Nachtigall sets out on journey to see how the Church of God (Anderson, IN) is facing 6 critical challenges. From a megachurch in the flatlands of the Midwest, to an isolated church in Siberia, to the Philippines where pastors deal with the challenge of Pentecostal growth, to the Middle East where a former AlQaeda member converts to Christianity, Patrick treks to 6 different continents to talk with Church of God pastors, organizational leaders, missioanries, and parishoners around the world. He seeks to understand the realities and challenges that Christian denominations face in the 21st Century.Here is a picture of a very diverse movement where some congregations exist in a traditional Christendom world, others in a postChristendom world, and yet others in a preChristendom Book of Acts world. Patrick finds that the Church of God is a decentralized denomination unable to use that flexibility to prevent overcentralization and consequently, fragmentation. The future is an open question, and the book concludes with the core issues that the Church of God will have to wrestle with in order to survive another century.Mosaic is for anyone of any Christian denomination that wants to understand the global macro trends that affect are tearing apart the fabric of denominational identity.
