Description
*Condition Note: Book is like new.*
Their own stories and what they can teach us about reclaiming our friends and family.
I park the car. Seems like forever since I've been in this parking lot. So many
thoughts scramble through my mind. I don't even remember driving to the church. My heart is pounding. My mouth is dry. I'm scared. But I'm here because I want to be . . . right? What if no one notices me? What if someone does notice me and asks where I've been? How will I respond?
Standing in your church foyer, you notice some familiar faces. Wow! You suddenly realize it's been quite a while since you've seen that young family here. You wonder what caused them to be away for so long. No matter the reason--it's great to see them again. Could you make a difference today? Will you welcome
them? What will you say?
If you've never left the church, you surely know someone who has. Ten Who Came Back explores the thoughts, feelings, and fears of ten people who left the church but have come back with renewed dedication.
Each of these stories is unique. Perhaps you will empathize with them or better yet, learn from them. What drives former members away? What brings them back? Find out how these people were once again warmly embraced by the church. You might be the next person to welcome and make room for a returning
member in your church.
