Item description from seller

Neuware - The sit-watch-and-listen format for church meetings isn't cutting it. 'Jesus seldom, if ever, monologued. He interacted,' says Charles H. Kraft, Fuller Seminary professor. This book calls for making church services participatory. It also offers stories in which 25 church leaders explain how they are doing so.

This book is for all who love the Body of Christ and work for its well-being. It is for pastors, church leaders, and church planters in all kinds of communities-in urban, suburban, exurban, and rural congregations. It is for Christians who seek to encourage increased congregational participation and to support leaders as they pursue that objective. …
