Remaking a Broken World
Description
Christopher Ash argues here that the ordinary local Christian church contains within itself the seeds of a remade world. We need to commit ourselves wholeheartedly to our local church - and this may be the most significant thing we ever do.
The local church is at the heart of the Bible story, and it is how a broken world will be remade. Christopher sweeps though the whole Bible, telling its story to highlight the theme of scattering and gathering present throughout. By reading this you will see the Bible anew and refresh your passion for your local church.

Gathering and Scattering
Yet another Bible Overview- this time with a difference! Ash takes us through the Bible, with a view of God's gathering and scattering of His people - fullfilled in the New Creation but foreshadowed by the local church. Very helpful and challenging, especially on the importance of the local church in God's plan - and therefore our part in serving that church ![]()
