Handling the pain of emerging church
23 Jan 2004
If you are someone leaving church, left church, still in church, struggling with the pain of being hurt by church, it’s people, members, and leaders, then this book is for you. If you are a pastor, leader, member, and are still involved in church, and are hurt by people who have left, then this book is for you too. Simply this small book (you can read it in less than an hour), is the most amazing study in brokeness and pain.
If you have pain from doing and being in church, this book is the most helpful I have every come across, and I go back to drink from it again and again, and again.This book is a retelling of the story of King Saul, King David, and wouldbe-king Absalom, and the interaction between leadership, submission, authority, brokeness and pain.
