Summary
The Shaping of Things to Come explores why the church needs to recalibrate itself, rebuilding itself from the roots up. Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch build their case around real-life stories gathered from emergent church projects from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and England. These spirited experiments of Gospel community serve to point out just how varied a genuinely incarnational approach can, and needs to, become. They present nodes of missional learning for the established church as it seeks to orientate itself to the unique challenges of the twenty-first century. --From publisher's description.
