Six writers from different denominations came together to imagine what the church of North America would look like if she reclaimed her missional identity. Working with a robust understanding of the mission of God, Darrell Guder and the other authors do a careful job of defining the church’s mission in terms of God’s mission and not vice-versa. Written over a decade ago, their summary of today’s American spiritual culture is still right on. This book sparked much of the missional conversation presently going on and it continues to challenge the church to move from maintenance to mission.
