Summary

For much of recent history, individuals and institutions could plan, execute, and flourish with their visions of a better world. Volatile, complex forces could be addressed and confronted with planning and management. But crisis is a great revealer. It knocks us off our thrones. It uncovers the weaknesses in our strategies and brings to light our myths and idols. Our past strategies run aground, smashed by unpredictable and chaotic waves.

Yet in the midst of the chaos of a crisis comes opportunity. The history of the church tells us that crisis always precedes renewal, and the framework of renewal offers us new ways forward. A Non-Anxious Presence shows how that renewal happens and offers churches and leaders strategic ways to awaken the church and see our culture changed for Christ.

Not what I expected

I think this book doesn't have the best marketing. I was expecting a leadership book, instead I got a fascinating study on society and the changing of the times. There wasn't really any leadership instruction.

The audiobook is very very well read although I am a little put off whenever a non-fiction book isn't read by the author.

An insightful and useful look at our cultural moment

The book is well researched, and I particularly found the chapters to be a good length for listening. Arguments were built systematically and the conclusion was solid.
