About this listen

For much of recent history, individuals and institutions could plan, execute, and flourish with their visions of a better world. Volatile, complex forces could be addressed and confronted with planning and management. But crisis is a great revealer. It knocks us off our thrones. It uncovers the weaknesses in our strategies and brings to light our myths and idols. Our past strategies run aground, smashed by unpredictable and chaotic waves.

Yet in the midst of the chaos of a crisis comes opportunity. The history of the church tells us that crisis always precedes renewal, and the framework of renewal offers us new ways forward. A Non-Anxious Presence shows how that renewal happens and offers churches and leaders strategic ways to awaken the church and see our culture changed for Christ.

I think this book doesn't have the best marketing. I was expecting a leadership book, instead I got a fascinating study on society and the changing of the times. There wasn't really any leadership instruction.

The audiobook is very very well read although I am a little put off whenever a non-fiction book isn't read by the author.

Not what I expected

The book is well researched, and I particularly found the chapters to be a good length for listening. Arguments were built systematically and the conclusion was solid.

An insightful and useful look at our cultural moment

I will be listening to this audio book again as it challenges the norm that many Christians settle for. God has called us the church to advance His Kingdom and this requires leaders who know what the presence of God means for them before they can lead others to also be a people of God’s presence. By the time you have completed this book I trust The Holy Spirit will lead you into a new season of growth. Are you ready for the wilderness? Then listen or read on.

Brilliant book for all church leaders to digest
