LETTERS TO THE CHURCH
By
Francis Chan
David C. Cook. 216 pages. £7.99
ISBN 978 0 830 776 580

Why would an American pastor plant a mega church, and then walk away? That is what Francis Chan did, and this book explains why.

His church had grown rapidly, from 30 to 1,600 in six years, but did people really know one another? Were they coming for the show? Did church make any difference to them outside the 90 minutes they spent together on a Sunday? What is church anyway?
