Prisons with Stained Glass Windows - Walton, Jonathan R

. .

Résumé :
Modern methods of evangelism have propelled the church into an era of reaching people on their terms instead of continually throwing religion and doctrine in their path. The church has been compelled to reach outward in an unprecedented fashion. This outward focus was birthed in the mind of God and is the purpose that He came to the earth, the reason He started THE church. However, have man's attempts to further God's agenda become counter productive? Man's first priority is to God, preserving and building that relationship. Has a focus on evangelism robbed the church of the power, authority, and anointing that God equipped it with in order to reach the lost? Is Evangelism hindering the restoration of men's hearts, souls, and minds toward God by focusing elsewhere? Is evangelism killing revival? On the other end of the spectrum, others cling to traditional truths and doctrinal stances, refusing to embrace culture on its terms. This causes many to remain ineffective at serving their primary purpose. In this case, God remains locked inside church buildings, never able to move among the masses like He desires. Jesus remains a Savior of the saved, not being allowed to embrace sinners as He intended. Is revival hurting the churches ability to reach non-Christians because it is to internally focused? Is revival killing evangelism? Prisons With Stained Glass Windows explores the heart of God concerning the lost. It encourages every church, every believer to embrace evangelism and revival together. It explains the importance of navigating the marginal difference between compassion and compromise, urging the church to stop debating traditions at the expense of souls, while encouraging it to stop compromising the TRUTH to reach others. Lives will be changed by the principles of this book, as the church embraces God like never before while completing His mission of reaching a lost and dying world.
