The Fools' Manual

Book excerpt: An early reader of Foolish Church, a layperson, stood up in front of her church and said, “Every church person needs to read this, because we will learn a lot to help us as a church!” She grasped the point of the book: it’s about helping us do church differently. If you’re foolish enough to want to try what Lee shares in Foolish Church, this fools’ manual will help you do so. It offers book and Bible reflections for each chapter, along with practice suggestions that will help you and your church practice being more authentic, more relevant, and more open. You’ll be invited to connect with others, using the hashtag #foolishchurch on social media, so that we all might learn together. C’mon, all you church fools! We’ve got work to do.
