    About this audiobook

    What if the rise of secularism is good news for the church?

    For decades, we set our hopes on technology, politics, and the appearance of peace. We wanted to believe we were headed somewhere better-that progress was happening. But now as our technology ensnares and isolates us, our politics threaten to tear us apart, and our cultural decline continues to accelerate, people are understandably distressed.

    But throughout history these periods of decline traditionally precede powerful spiritual renewal-and even revival. What if all the bad news in this world is actually good news for the church?

    Discover why there's reason to be wildly hopeful and how to prepare yourself and your church to be a part of renewal now and in the future.

      Stumbling Blocks That Delay Church Transformation Part 5

      May 20, 2022

      In my previous writings I have pointed out that institutionalised Christianity is fading away. Organised religious systems are sucking the life of Christ out of believers. In many cases, believers are busy with the church programme, but not with God.
