"In a society where many people search desperately for elusive 'family values,' this book roots hospitality where it belongs--in the graciousness of God," writes one reviewer.
In The Faith-Sharing Congregation, Swanson and Clement reclaim the local congregation as the center of ministry and mission, demonstrating that evangelism is the responsibility of the entire congregation--clergy and laity--working together.
The Faith-Sharing Congregation suggests a threefold evangelism strategy that includes:
- sharing faith through the practice of genuine hospitality
- sharing faith through relationships and personal stories
- sharing faith through the "domestic church," the body of Christ
