Additional information
by G. Travis Norvell (Author)
G. Travis Norvell challenges church leaders and members--persistently asking them and their respective churches what they are doing to make a real difference in others' lives. The author proposes that the people of the "living church" start moving in, around, and with their communities to truly move toward renewal and social justice, drawing on his own experiences as a church pastor who walked, rode his bike, and took the bus as he went about his work. The book provides concrete, practical ways for the church body and individuals to begin implementing this movement, including study questions, suggested resources, and "experiments" between chapters that can help them find the ways that work best in their respective contexts.
