Acerca de esta escucha
Insights from Philip Yancey's personal pilgrimage away from and back to the church—what made him walk away, and what drew him back.
Why are there so many more professing Christians than churchgoing Christians? Is it because something is wrong with the church?
In his candid, thought-provoking manner, award-winning author Philip Yancey reveals the reasons behind his own journey back from skepticism to wholehearted participation in the church. This book:
- Weighs the church's human failings against its compelling worth as the body of Christ.
- Looks into what God may have in mind for His church.
- Discusses how the church can reach beyond its walls and into the communities and lives around it to be more than just “Sunday worship.”
Yancey does not whitewash the church's faults. He sets them against the overwhelming balance of its strengths: its heart for God, its care for the hurting, its outreach to the lost, and its value as family and community.
This book is for anyone who’s ever wondered: Why bother with church?

Where the Light Fell is a gripping family narrative set against a turbulent time in post-World War II America, shaped by the collision of Southern fundamentalism with the mounting pressures of the civil rights movement and '60s-era forces of social change. In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear.

Philip Yancey, whose explorations of faith have made him a guide for millions, feels no need to defend the church. Yancey acknowledges that many spiritual seekers find few answers and little solace in the institutional church.

Historia
Christians have proclaimed the good news about Jesus for centuries. But the good news isn't sounding so good these days, at least to some. More and more surveys show that people view Christians as bearers of bad news, judgment, and intolerance. In Vanishing Grace, best-selling author Philip Yancey acknowledges the problem and then explores how we can respond with both grace and truth. He offers a discerning look at what contributes to a hostility toward Christians, and identifies three groups - pilgrims, artists, and activists - who can show us a different way.

Indeed, Why Bother with Church?
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book.
However, to be honest, I'd have preferred Philip Yancey reading it (not that Maurice England did a bad job reading it).
I'm looking forward to sharing the thoughts I learned here with a friend, Andy, who's struggling with this very question right now, 'Why Bother with Church at all?'
