Go to Church Change the World

by Gerald J. Mast

At a time when many are questioning the relevance of the church to their spiritual journeys, this book asserts that “going to church”— not just personal virtue or ethics—is at the heart of Christian vocation. Drawing on Anabaptist life and conviction, Gerald J. Mast outlines Christ’s call to all believers to be the church, whether gathered for worship or scattered for service.

By exploring such practices as baptism, communion, singing, and group discernment, Mast asks us to consider how participation in the life of the church shapes our daily witness — how “going to church” transforms “going to work” in the world that God loves.
