Synopsis

What do the bread-and-butter things that churches regularly do look like through the lens of the values of Mission-shaped Church ? This accessible book takes a fresh look at a typical parish church's worship, pastoral contacts, civic and public responsibilities, its faith nurturing opportunities, administration and government, and creatively points to how all of this can be seen from the point of view of God's mission.
