About this title

Synopsis

Respected Disciples Michael Kinnamon and Jan Linn address the reclamation of the identity of the Disciples movement in a way that encourages reform of worship, fellowship, and mission. Acting as guides, the authors help congregations to reflect on who the Disciples are today, and discuss the reforms needed in the denomination for moving into the future. By strengthening the church's own identity as Disciples of Christ, the partnership in God's mission of peacemaking and compassionate service participation can be enhanced.

Jan Linn is co-pastor of Spirit of Joy Christian Church, Apple Valley, Minnesota. He is the author of several books from Chalice Press, including How to Be an Open-minded Christian without Losing Your Faith, Rocking the Church Membership Boat, The Jesus Connection, and Reclaiming Evangelism.

Store Description

I started selling books online around 1997-8, first on Bibliofind and then on Amazon. In my youth, I worked for a college textbook store and later at a university library. So I'm no stranger to scholarly books. Although semi-retired now, I still collect books and currently list for sale items no longer wanted in my personal library. Thus I do not have a large inventory as I am working from home. Still, I have an eclectic collection as befits a former librarian. My stock includes textbooks and scholarly books, with an emphasis on history, philosophy, and religion. My approval rating when I was with Amazon was 99% (2 were neutral). I'll try to accommodate any reasonable request.
