Description
The Exiled Church explores how churches and faith communities are faring in a highly secular contemporary culture. In many places, traditional denominations are in steep decline, church buildings are up for sale, even fast-growing new churches appear to be in a 'boom and bust' trajectory, and religion has effectively retreated from public life. Yet it was in exile that Israel discovered a deeper and truer knowledge of God.
