<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In defiance of the temptations to make the church all about its members, Kim Hammond and Darren Cronshaw call us to embrace our "sentness," to follow Jesus into our world and call it to faith. Dive into Sentness, and you'll discover the six postures of a church that's keeping pace with God's work in the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Ever wonder why people fall asleep in church?</p><p><br /> It happens. We?ve all seen it. We shuffle into rows of seats that grow more comfortable with every new fundraising campaign. We slouch down and settle in for an hour or so, as singers and storytellers and preachers and teachers take their turns filling our ears. And almost without fail, at least one of us nods off while listening to the greatest story ever told.</p><p><br /> The church was not meant to be like this. The church was meant to be on its feet, in the world, making all things new. The church was meant to be sent.</p><p><br /> Kim Hammond and Darren Cronshaw want to help us--all of us--rediscover our sentness.<br /> Dive into <em>Sentness, </em> and explore the six postures of a church that's keeping pace with God's work in the world. Rediscover the gospel that first quickened your pulse and got you up on your feet, ready to go wherever Jesus called you. Get <em>Sentness, </em> and prepare to get sent.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Could it be that while much of the church is waiting for Jesus to come, Jesus is waiting for us to go? This book joins a chorus of voices calling for the church to join God on mission in our world with lots of practical ideas as to how we can do so more effectively. Highly recommended reading."--Mark Conner, CityLife Church, Australia<br>
