Divine Renovation: From Maintenance to a Missional Parish

Through humorous and colourful stories, James Mallon challenges us to rethink our models of parish life, from membership-based communities to assemblies of disciples of Jesus who proclaim and share the good news with all peoples. Accessible and engaging, Divine Renovation turns to the Church's many writings on evangelization and mission so as to articulate practical ways for injecting new life into local church ministry. Pastors and parish workers will be inspired by this book and turn to it for many years to come.
