In a day when so many of my brothers are looking for a better expression of "church" and when the authors encouraging such adventure is so plenty, I stand and rejoice that Christ has raised up two voices to counter the call to be revolutionary. DeYoung and Kluck call us to be plodding visionaries, who check in and follow through. Great Book, a little hard on the other voices (Barna, Viola, etc.) but they might just need to be! (

Why We Love the Church presents the case for loving the local church. It paints a picture of the local church in all its biblical and real life guts, gaffes, and glory in an effort to edify local congregations and entice the disaffected back to the fold. It also provides a solid biblical mandate to love and be part of the body of Christ and counteract the "leave church" books that trumpet rebellion and individual felt needs.

Why We Love the Church is written for four kinds of people - the Committed, the Disgruntled, the Waffling & the Disconnected.
