About this book

Wine, the gospel of Jesus Christ. Wineskins, the manmade structures of the church. How do the two relate? What happens when new wine is poured into old wineskins? What about making new wineskins? In short: What kinds of church structures are most compatible with the gospel in our modern, techno-urban society? Howard Snyder addresses these questions - and provides some challenging answers. In the course of his argument he discusses the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, the mind of Christ, the role of spiritual gifts, the pastor as superstar and the place of small and large groups in the local church. His goal: to foster church renewal that is deeply spiritual and immediately practical.
