Renovation: A Survey on Divine Design in the Life of the Church

by Dwight Smith

This book is a significant edit to Divine Design in the Life of the Church, which I first published in 2010. The purpose of this shorter edition is to give churches a simpler tool for envisioning God’s purpose for His church and for those who lead it. Additionally, since I wrote the first volume, I have written more extensively on concepts in it about leadership, discipleship, and God’s purpose for His people, and books on these topics are now available individually for those who desire to plumb the depths of these matters. So we might say that this book is a taster on divine design in the life of the church.

This is his "significant edit" to the first Renovation from 2010. Smith has some tremendous insights into the purpose of the church and roles leadership needs to take. He has refocused some of his previous thoughts and continues developing strategy for the western church. He has good suggestions for the American church and leadership.

The concepts in this book are gold, and this revision is a much smoother read than previous versions. Very helpful!

Helpful book on the church and how the church should function in the world. I read this right after reading Smith's "Alone at the Top".
