Title: Power religion
Description: Ruled by sociology (the church growth movement), psychology (the self-esteem movement), and politics (both the Christian left and right), some respected Christian leaders consider the evangelical church today to have gone too far in adopting the world's tactics in the name of progress and betterment for the church. What happens when the church starts to rely on the world's method of living instead of God's specified plan? Those concerned with the many liberal changes occurring in the evangelical church will be intrigued and awakened by this challenging book. Fifteen theologians and Bible scholars explore how sociology, in the form of the church growth movement, has taken the place of revival and reform. - Publisher.
