The Church of Tomorrow
What if what we are witnessing is not the decline of the Church but its rebirth?
By John McGinleyFebruary 2023
The Church of Tomorrow: Being a Christ Centred People in a Changing World, the latest work from Myriad executive director John McGinley, explores the exciting answer to this question.
The rates of decline in church attendance and the ticking demographic timebomb show that business as usual will lead to extinction. But out of these ashes there are countless reasons to hope. Signs and stories emerging from worshipping communities the world over can give us renewed confidence that, as always, God is doing a ‘new-old’ thing.
The Church that is emerging amid times of uncertainty is growing, alive and demonstrating the qualities of the early church recorded in the New Testament, one that is more diverse, more spirit-filled, more confident in the Gospel, calling, equipping and sending people to make disciples in all nations.
Written for ordained and lay leaders at all levels, this book will help you navigate these changing times in light of the immovable knowledge that God is always on the move. The Big Church Read is also providing resources to help you read The Church of Tomorrow in community. You will find videos, study guides, discussions questions and a preaching plan available to download.
Hear from John McGinley below on why he thinks reading The Church of Tomorrow in community could have a lasting impact on your church.
