If God had it His way, what would our churches look like?
In his most powerful book yet, Pastor Francis Chan digs deep into biblical truths, reflections on his own failures and dreams, and stories of ordinary people God is using to change the world.
As Chan says, βWeβve strayed so far from what God calls Church. We all know it. We know that what weβre experiencing is radically different from the Church in Scripture. For decades, church leaders like myself have lost sight of the inherent mystery of the Church. We have trained people sitting in the pews to become addicted to lesser things. Itβs time for that to change.β
When Jesus returns, will He find us caring for His Brideβeven more than for our own lives? Letters to the Church reminds us of how powerful, how glorious the Church once was β¦ and calls us to once again be the Church God intended us to be.
