Gospel-Driven Church

 
Currently Reading
The Gospel-Driven Church: Retrieving Classical Ministries for Contemporary Revivalism (Deep Church Series) (Deep Church Series)
By Ian Stackhouse

Well, I'm FINALLY finishing Stackhouse's "Gospel-Driven Church" - not what I'd call a 'fast read', for sure.  I also think he over-states his case, a bit like a charismatic version of Michael S. Horton, who, though he often speaks truth, is so beligerent with it that you WANT to disagree with the guy in the end.  Okay, Stackhouse isn't quite that harsh - like Horton, he makes a few very good points, but the book could easily be shortened to the size of 'Prayer of Jabez', and the language could be simplified significantly, since many charismatics don't read a great deal of academic literature.  Anyway, still worth reading.
