How to interpret the Bible faithfully without loving and worshiping its truth more than Christ •The reaching-in (relational) church. How to care for people with grace and love without compromising truth and discipline •The reaching-out (market-driven) church. How to be contextual without looking and smelling like the world The reaching-back (traditional) church. How to preserve and appreciate our heritage without killing its freshness and power •The reaching-forward (social action) church. How to impact our culture as wise ambassadors and not as angry fools. The author also advocates cooperation with other church leaders. His congregation, for example, has helped other denominations start new congregations.
