Weaving together Scriptural wisdom, spiritual formation, the latest research across multiple disciplines, and his on-the-ground experience as a missionary, entrepreneur, and evangelism professor, Moon explains that the Western church’s malaise comes from an inability to see God’s vision for what the church is supposed to be. He then provides creative and clear directions for how even the humblest congregation can be formed into that vision.
