Many people think of church as a place and time where people gather, a way for ministry money to be given and spent, and a building in which people regularly meet on Sunday mornings.
In this book, Jeremy Myers shows that church is more than bodies, bucks, and bricks.
Church is the people of God who follow Jesus into the world, and we can be the church no matter how many people we are with, no matter the size of our church budget, and regardless of whether we have a church building or not.
By abandoning our emphasis on more people, bigger budgets, and newer buildings, we may actually liberate the church to better follow Jesus into the world.
This book is Volume 4 in the "Close Your Church for Good" series of books. Other volumes include:
- Preface: Skeleton Church
- Vol. 1: The Death and Resurrection of the Church
- Vol. 2: Put Service Back into the Church Service
- Vol. 3: Dying to Religion and Empire
- Vol. 4: Church is More than Bodies, Bucks, and Bricks
- Vol. 5: Cruciform Pastoral Leadership
