Relevant and Challenging

The book is a little disjointed - I almost wish John Michael would revisit it and update it as I know he still stands for the "gentle revolution." The beginning of the book details the woes of the modern world (of the 1980's) and so is a little dated - which either distracts from or emphasises the point - we are living in desparate times. He then goes on to paint the picture of hope that the Gospel can be lived out right where you are - in spite of your church affiliation - and to the betterment of your church affiliation. He describes it as a "gentle revolution:" a call to love and unity. I think most Christians (and all non-Christians!) feel the need for such a life to emerge from the church of Jesus Christ- but how? After describing this Call, he lays out some simple approaches to laying hold of the power of the Holy Spirit (the 'Regathering Power')- the only means by which the Gospel can be realized personally and corporately. All in all - a very helpful, encouraging little book. Like an Appetizer, you'll have a mind to be ready to know and study more when you're done.
