BOOK OF THE MONTH
A Profound Vision of What the Church Can Be
In today’s frenzied society, people rarely develop intimate friendships. Instead, they spend their lives essentially disconnected from others, rushing through life content with brief visits and casual conversations. But what if one were to develop a community, a spiritual community, of people who walked with and supported each other through life’s journey?

OVERVIEW
Becoming a True Spiritual Community
Spiritual community is always a miracle.
Forming spiritual community is always the work of the Spirit. It is never ours. Most of what we do is give up control, get out of the way, and let the Spirit take over. More than anything else, we pray.
Prayer is a lifeline to God.
When the “Get Things from God” paradigm switches to the “Get to Know God Better” paradigm, a space is created that the Spirit wants to fill.
What the Church can be.
A place where there is no expectation that people have arrived at some level of perfection, but where people journey toward God.

What people are saying
“The honesty and urgency that characterizes these pages is a welcome contrast to the prevailing entrepreneurial spirit of our age that turns community into a commodity.”
-Eugene H. Peterson, Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology, Regent College
“A Larry Crabb book is like a good hit in a baseball game. Each time he steps up to the plate he ends up on base and the rest of us advance toward home. This work appears to be just as solid.”
-Max Lucado
“I got this book for a mens study. Men don’t see the community process as important as Christ did. We sometimes feel it is weak to have to depend on others within the church community, but this book is great in speaking to the man about his need for and need to be a part of the community. It revives the soul and creates a want to be involved in your church community. I highly recommend it for a person looking for renewing of the Spirit or a bible study class. Lots of real lessons that can motivate you to reach out to the community and add your abilities to your church community.”
