Brave Cities

It's time to break free from our Sunday-centric, formulaic versions of church and instead architect fresh kingdom ecosystems as an ancient yet new frontier for sustainable mission.

The temptation for many church leaders is to take what's worked elsewhere and use it as a paint-by-number. Yet Jesus showed us a different way. Every word he spoke and everything he did utterly broke the molds, rules, and laws that people had created to confine God and his kingdom.

Taylor McCall and Hugh Halter challenge us to trade in our formulas for the artistry of living as brave cities-kingdom ecosystems that embody the authentic good news of Jesus, where homes, reconciliation, discipleship, relationships, worship, enterprise, activism, and justice coalesce to form biblical community.

This book won't tell you what to do. Instead, it will invite you to uncover the places where God is already at work, attune to God's vision for transformation, and craft beautiful kingdom environments that bravely demonstrate the love of God.
