It is a profound examination of church dynamics that dispels many myths and reveals that parishioners want a church rooted in love-love in the pulpit, in the pews, and in the community. They want relevance in a noisy world, purpose in their service, and missions that matter. They want to experience the unconditional love of Christ in tangible, healing, and life-giving ways-and pass that legacy on to future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 170\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.36 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 27, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45464663130191,"sku":"9798218939847","price":31.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/3083\/3487\/files\/aWmIgyvzBd9798218939847.webp?v=1780620863","url":"https:\/\/lumaryon.com\/products\/what-church-folk-want-conversations-on-becoming-a-flourishing-church-paperback","provider":"Lumaryon Universal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
