Revolution in the Church: Challenging the Religious System with a Call for Radical Change

by Michael L. Brown

Revolution in the Church, a follow-up to Michael Brown's previous book Revolution! The Call to Holy War, takes a thought-provoking look at the need for spiritual revolution in the church and ultimately the world. Brown exposes erroneous beliefs and practices and challenges believers to make radical changes in their ways of thinking and doing. Provocative and hard-hitting, Revolution in the Church stresses that large-scale change is needed for today's church to "put into practice some key teachings of the Reformation that are yet to be fully implemented, and to bring reformation that the Reformation never envisioned." It discusses the meaning of true discipleship, calls believers to recover the Jewish roots of their faith, shows how and why radical, absolute obedience to Jesus is considered cultlike by the mainstream church, and much more. Young people wanting to overturn the spiritual status quo and longing for God to revolutionize their spiritual lives will find this book's challenging message a welcome corroboration of the revolution already taking place in many congregations. Others will hear it as a wake-up call. Christians active in the revival movement, including intercessors, pastors, and other church leaders, will find Brown's dynamic content and lively writing style a catalyst for spearheading large-scale change in the contemporary church.

One of the better books I have read on the subject lately.

It is way past time to wake up, get up, and quit playing Churchianity and speaking Christianese.
