Perspectives is a series of essays on faith issues that face Christians today and is designed to foster personal reflection and group discussion.The survival of the church has been a growing concern for individuals and church leaders. Since the 1950s membership in almost all denominations has declined and so has the church's influence on society at large. Drawing on luke 9:23-25, Jonathan Hunter says new life for the church of Jesus Christ can come about only as the body of Chris is willing to lose its life. His thoughtful proddings will challenge readers to think in new ways about church revitalization.
