Title: Kicking Habits: Welcome Relief for Addicted Churches by Thomas G. Bandy ISBN: 0-687-04934-2 Publisher: Abingdon Press Pub. Date: May, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $20.00 |

Summary: Vital for catching a new vision
Comment: This book is invaluable for anyone in leadership in the established institutional churches. It made me squirm more than once, but it also gave me the clearest picture of why the mainline churches are in decline I've gotten from any source. Bandy uses a narrative of a young couple who are church shopping to illustrate his points, and it hits very close to home. You'll recognize it all.
The title, incidentally, is a bit too narrow for the topic -- this is a work about change in every system of church life.
Everyone who wonders what the heck has happened to make churches that used to work in the 50s fall into irrelevance and decline should read this book.

Summary: Don't read it... You may leave your "churchness"...
Comment: This book is a must for any believer, but specially leaders. You will see, in a very compeling and "oiled" way the reality of the pathetic present system of "church as usual". You will see that we, the church at large, are designed as a franchise of boredom and institutionalism. It is not a book for those who love the "status quo" and are controling freaks. Is not a book for people who seek accomodations and think that being a good christian means going to Sunday school for a thousand years and never graduating. It is a great book and everyone in the new church we are starting is reading it. The book, above all, calls you to be true and vibrant with the message of Jesus and not with the carpet in the fellowship-hall.
