Uniting Church and Home: A Blueprint for Rebuilding Church Community

by Eric E. Wallace

Family-based church ministry is far more than a change in programming to accommodate mom, dad and the kids. Family-based church ministry also includes everyone in the church: singles, single-parent families, youth, elderly, etc. Why? Because we are all members of God's household and church life should mirror this truth. Family-based church ministry is simply a multi-generational vision that is focused on heart-level relationships that are nurtured in everyday life. In a family-based church ministry, relationships are upheld as the primary tool for ministry, not programs. "Uniting Church and Home" is a blueprint for rebuilding church community around these principles. This resource will show how to transform your households into a family-based church ministry.

Intriguing blueprint for household ministry within the church. The book could have been half as long with less repetition, and the editing was appalling!! (As the cornerstone, jesus was referred to as a bolder instead of a boulder.) Many distracting grammatical errors. The idea itself has some thought- provoking possibilities, though probably more appropriate in a church plant than in an established body of believers.

When it came out, this book was groundbreaking.For me,having grown up with many of these principles, it was more though provoking than groundbreaking. Wallace presents many bilbical ideas that have bearing on society and churchs.

This book was one of many instruments that God used to change my heart and mind regarding the role and function of the local church.
