FINDING
ORGANIC CHURCH is a comprehensive practical guide that follows all of
Frank's other books on the church. It answers the following questions and more:

Where do I find the kind of church life you describe in your other books --
namely, Pagan Christianity, Reimagining Church, From Eternity to Here,
and The Untold Story of the New Testament Church?
*
How does one plant an organic church -- a Christ-centered community that
expresses God's kingdom and fufills God's eternal purpose and grand
mission?
* How are organic churches nurtured and sustained?
* In an organic church, how are children, giving (money), Bible study,
evangelism, prayer, etc. all handled?
* What are the stages of development that an organic church passes
through?
* What are the diseases, preventions, and treatments for organic
churches?
* What are the bibilcal principles for organic church planting?
* If I'm a leader in an institutional church and I want to transition to an
organic church, how do I go about doing that?
The
author of "Pagan Christianity?" (with George Barna), "Reimagining Church," and
the bestselling "From Eternity to Here" has written a detailed manual on how to
start and sustain an organic church. Everything from what to do with the
children, to the developmental stages of church growth, to the diseases of an
organic church and their cures are all covered in this comprehensive volume.
Church planting principles for organic styled churches are packed together with
the author's practical experience of living in and starting such churches. Each
chapter is full of advice, outlining the unique problems that such churches will
face and their solutions. Church planters of all types will benefit from this
book as well as those wishing to explore an alternative way of church gathering.
