Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's urban centers are growing while the number of Christians living therein is declining. Why? Because the church has withdrawn from the ebb and flow of urban life, taken refuge within the church building, and changed the Great Commission from "Go and Tell" to "Come and Hear." These paradigms must be broken, and the church must enter the community if the megacity is to be reached with the good news of Christ. Churches Entering the Community: The Key to Reaching the Megacity is an insightful look at the problem by two urban practitioners in Latin America who offer practical suggestions on how to move the church from the pew to the streets and impact the community with the truth of the gospel.
