About the Book

What's gone wrong with the church? If you've been feeling that something vital has gone missing from our spiritual lives, you're not alone. But from scandals involving celebrity preachers, to busy programmes that have little sense of God and struggling to find time to pray, what is it that lies behind the church is crisis? Is it possible that we've forgotten to put Jesus at the centre of everything? And if so, what can do we about it? In Smuggling Jesus Back into Church Andrew Fellows shows us with a sharp eye how secularism has reshaped church culture, changing the way many Christians and churches live and worship without being noticed. Both provocative and practical, he challenges us to live with radical Christ-like distinctiveness - distinctiveness that requires both reformation by the church and revival by the Holy Spirit. Timely and prophetic, Smuggling Jesus Back into Church is essential reading for anyone concerned about the effects of secularism on Christianity and modern church culture, or for anyone who struggles with Church and wants to understand why. Filled with passion and vision, it will point you back towards Jesus and revitalise your understanding of what Christian discipleship should be. It's time to remember what lies at the heart of our faith. It's time to smuggle Jesus back into church and back into the centre of our lives.

About the Author :
Andrew Fellows is director of apologetics at Christian Heritage, Cambridge. Before that he was director of L'Abri Fellowship England. Much of his research and teaching has been devoted to helping Christians make sense of the 'secular age'.

Review :
This hard-hitting book uncovers the subtle, and not-so-subtle ways the surrounding world can creep into the church. Fellows builds on his years of experience in ministry to help Christians identify these pressures to conform. He is particularly severe against different forms of the prosperity gospel, from peddlers of self-confidence to salvation through busyness. He brilliantly introduces us to the historical forces that got us to where we are. But he goes beyond diagnosis and on to the cure: more of Jesus. This should lead to deep antidotes such as the sense of wonder, and a direct gaze at the supernatural. This excellent book needs to be read by every believer. Insightful and convicting, Andrew Fellows’s soulful intellect opens our eyes to our cultural moment and calls us home to a life centred in Christ. I have already found myself wanting to give this book to others at least a dozen times. I truly think every seminary student, every church leader, indeed every Christian who is concerned to discover why the church has lost its countercultural impact, and what can be done about it, should read Smuggling Jesus Back into the Church.
