On the Verge Summary

On the Verge: A Journey Into the Apostolic Future of the Church by Alan Hirsch

How the Church can recover her original, apostolic ways and become a high-impact Jesus movement again in the West.

The church is on the verge of massive, category shifting, change. Contemporary church growth, despite its many blessings, has failed to stem the decline of Christianity in the West, and we are now facing the fact that more of the same will not produce different results.

We are already seeing this new form of the church emerge in our day-an apostolic, reproducing Movement that's driven by a desire to see Biblical Christianity reestablished. Alan Hirsch and Dave Ferguson call this the apostolic movement because it's more resonant with the form of church that we witness in the New Testament and in the great missional movements of history.

And we are on the verge of a new apostolic movement...

In this book, Christian thought-leaders Hirsch and Ferguson share a rich array of theology, theory, and best practices, along with inspiring stories about leaders who have rightly diagnosed their churches' failure to embrace a biblical model of mission and have moved toward a fuller expression of the gospel.

On the Verge will help church leaders:

  • Imagine the contemporary Church from the apostolic perspective-how we got from there to here.
  • Shift our mindset from technique (how to do church) to embodiment (how to live as Christ's Church)
  • Learn how to value, approach, and understand innovation.
  • Move whole-heartedly toward the apostolic, missional movement.

Many of the best and brightest leaders in the contemporary church are now making shifts in the way they think, lead, and organize. On the Verge will help church leaders discover how these forerunners and their insights are launching a new apostolic movement?and how any church can get involved.
