Description
What does it mean to provide leadership for the church in an increasingly secular context?
When religion is privatized and secularism reigns in the public square, Christians are often drawn toward either individualist escapism or constant cultural warfare. But might this context instead offer a fresh invitation for the church to adapt and thrive?
Gordon Smith is passionate about the need for capable, mature leaders to navigate and respond to a changing society. In this book, he draws on his extensive experience as a university president, pastor, and international speaker to open a multidisciplinary conversation about the competencies and capacities essential for today's leaders.
After analyzing the phenomenon of secularization in the West and charting common Christian responses, Smith introduces four sources of wisdom to help guide us through this new terrain: the people and prophets of Judah during the Babylonian exile, the early church in its pagan environment, contemporary churches across the Global South, and Christian thinkers in post-Christian Europe. From these resources he identifies practices and strategies that can give shape to faithful, alternate communities in such a time as this.

Rich Theology
This book was above my expectations. I finished the book informed and with much to think about. I would recommend it regardless of denomination.

excellent content, narration could be better
the content of this book is excellent and we'll researched, I pushed the speed to 1.5 because I found the narration to slow to keep me awake (granted I am a fiction guy, not a non-fiction) again the content is worth pushing through.
