Negative Positive
Title: Provacative
Review: This book will make you think about the church, about seminaries, about denominations and about call in new and interesting ways. Bandy may overstate his arguments in places, but does so to push the reader to engage and to think which is a good thing. He speaks of the body of Christ (the church or band of pilgrims or whatever) as either the body in residence or the body in motion. The body in residence is the show up on Sundays and the minister will perform for us type model and the body in motion is his suggestion for the church as mission mover. The book is a quick read and I'd recommend it for pastors, seminarians, denomination leaders, truck drivers and anybody else who cares about the church of today and tomorrow.
