What modern church doesn’t call itself a ‘community’? Yet for how many is it real? How many churches form disciples intimately connected enough to call themselves Christ’s ‘body’? How many form disciples who know the relational arts that create a robust unity? How many form disciples practiced in the ways of sacrificial love?
Pastor John Alexander, a thirty-year veteran of living in Christian communities, yearns for all the wonder and promise of the New Testament vision of church to come true. After struggling with Scripture in live-together church communities, he shares the Scriptural practices and wisdom that make for an authentic, sustainable, and joyful life together. For any person or church wanting to move beyond the cliche of ‘community’ to the radical vision of the New Testament, this book is an invaluable guide
