Description

Within the heart of the modern church, a quiet crisis brews: the steady decline in church attendance-a trend acutely visible among the Gen Z cohort, who holds a deep-seated yearning for authentic connection and an aspiration to thrive within a transparent community. Enter the world of The Weak Church-a groundbreaking narrative that shuns the conventional pursuit of mega-sized congregations and toxic masculinity, inviting instead a resurgence of vibrant, genuine communities through a ministry philosophy of weakness. The essence of this book reaches far beyond the realm of numerical growth. It is grounded by a singular objective-to unravel the threads connecting our culture's obsession with strength, while arming church leaders with a radical philosophy of weakness. This philosophy holds the profound potential to redefine every facet of the church. As the pages unfold, you'll encounter the resounding proclamation, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9), echoing through the corridors of transformation.
