It is a profound examination of church dynamics that dispels many myths and reveals that parishioners want a church rooted in love-love in the pulpit, in the pews, and in the community. They want relevance in a noisy world, purpose in their service, and missions that matter. They want to experience the unconditional love of Christ in tangible, healing, and life-giving ways-and pass that legacy on to future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sisters of the Pen, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47883270226071,"sku":"9798218939847","price":1578.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798218939847.webp?v=1781100717","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/what-church-folk-want-conversations-on-becoming-a-flourishing-church-9798218939847","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
