description: The last forty years have seen transitions in mainline churches that feel for many like a journey into the wilderness. Yet God is calling us in this moment not to grieve over the changes we have experienced but to hear the call to a new mission and a new faithfulness.In Journey in the Wilderness  Gil Rendle draws on decades as a pastor and church consultant to point a way into a hopeful future. The key to embracing the wilderness is to learn new skills in leading change to reach beyond a position of privilege and power to become churches that serve Gods hurting people.
