Special performances, attractive worship centers, and professional clergy are important to the success of churches today. But as the rush of activities continues to grow and the corresponding crush of administration consumes more time and energy, pastors, church leaders, and ministry students find themselves asking, 'Why do we do what we do? Why does 'church' have to be a burden?' This book offers a compelling challenge to local churches to measure all programs and structures in light of God's blueprint for ekklesia in Scripture. Its practical insights bring a much-needed focus on the scriptural foundation and church structures that will enliven and liberate both members and leaders.
