New from the "Living Church" series! In a society where people are inundated with 24-hour news, unfiltered social media, hundreds of television channels, and more, the author urges the people of God to seek a vital spirituality—not merely a contemplation that withdraws from the world, but a spirituality that inspires us to answer Jesus' call to service and social justice.
Key features:
• Explores the teachings of thinkers and servants: Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Fannie Lou Hamer, Martin Luther King Jr., and Jitsuo Morikawa.
• Determines seven principles of formation and transformation ministries to identify, particularize, and individualize for the local church context.
• Highlights examples of effective spirituality and service ministry models.
