Reconnect Your Church: A Practical Handbook for Church Revitalisation
Reconnect Your Church provides a practical, road-tested vision and process to equip church leaders to reinvigorate their church
How can churches stay healthy and dynamic over the long-term? What’s needed to avoid or reverse church stagnation and decline?
While some churches are vibrant and growing, many more are struggling, especially after Covid. The congregation might be declining and ageing, there’s little success in reaching out to with the gospel, and more time is spent on inward facing problems than loving God and loving others. But the potential that could be released is huge.
David Brown draws on his experience revitalising a church in central Paris to offer a vision and a process for church revitalisation, with a focus on UK and European contexts. Whether you are church planting, in a well-established and thriving church, or looking to turn around a church in decline, Brown provides biblically grounded wisdom along with change management principles for long-term health.
When we reapply God’s priorities to the church, we unleash new life and energy in following Christ in community.

Výborná kniha, na našom slovenskom trhu nie je veľa titulov na túto tému. Oceňujem, že je písaná z európskej perspektívy. Zaujímavo sú prepletené celou knihou teoretické časti s prípadovými štúdiami, ktoré zahŕňajú tzv. západnú Európu aj ako tzv. bývalý východný blok. Za mňa sa kniha pomaly rozbiehala, na prvých cca 60-80 stranách tam nebolo pre mňa veľa pridanej hodnoty (to na povzbudenie skeptikom, ktorí ju začnú čítať), ale potom sa to rozbehlo. Knihu netreba brať ako príručku revitalizácie, ale ako zdroj dobrých princípov a inšpirácii, ktorí si však každý musí aplikovať do vlastnej situácie.
