A realistic look at options Christian churches have in our current context - which Pagitt calls the "inventive age". Rather than give a lot of answers, Pagitt points in certain directions and asks questions that provoke thoughtful reflection. According to Pagitt, the inventive age gives churches a great opportunity to find new ways to interact with the world around them, and one size does not fit all.
Doug Pagitt examines the many changes going on in churches in the North American context, and then tries to determine what is behind those changes and what such changes mean for Christian communities. This book is from a series on the inventive age. After reading this provocative and enjoyable book I look forward to others in the series.
