Reseña del editor:

From the Outside In is a serious look at how the personality of a church can act as a barrier that keeps it from being a welcome ally in the local community and keeps the community from hearing the gospel and the nature of the Kingdom of God. It examines the character of churches that take seriously the Kingdom of God as the essential model of their existence. From the Outside In helps church leaders eager to reach out beyond their own walls to live missionally in a multicultural world, to dialogue with communities around them, and to move out in witness toward the world. It points out personality characteristics that prevent or enable churches to engage the communities around them. From the Outside In encourages churches to seriously listen, to hear what the community is saying, and to respond in Kingdom-focused ways. A TCP Leadership Series title.
