The two authors of this book, Linda Grenz and Del Glover, say at the outset that they are ordinary Christians writing for ordinary Christians and ordinary congregations. So why has this book become a classic for couples about to marry, couples already married, and the congregations that support them? Because they approach the ordinary issues couples face in marriage from the life-experience perspectives of an Episcopal priest (Linda) and a former corporate executive (Del) who worked with people as they faced various family-related issues. They invite readers to use the book in ways that speak most directly to them and offer questions for the couple to discuss and others that engage a congregation. The book is interspersed with relevant quotes from scripture with probing questions for the individual to consider.

At once “travel guide” and vision for the future, the Transformation series is good news for the Episcopal Church at a time of fast and furious demographic and social change. Series contributors - recognized experts in their fields - analyze our present plight, point to the seeds of change already at work transforming the church, and outline a positive new way forward. What kinds of churches are most ready for transformation? What are the essential tools? What will give us strength, direction, and purpose to the journey? Each volume of the series will: <ul>
<li>Explain why a changed vision is essential </li> <li>Give robust theological and biblical foundations </li> <li>Offer a guide to best practices and positive trends in churches large and small. </li> <li>Describe the necessary tools for change </li> <li>Imagine how transformation will look </li> </ul>
Making disciples through Christian formation too often looks like a limited number of educational programs offered to child, teen, and adult “consumers” who move on if they don’t find what they want. How can we make the transition from consumer religion to participatory faith by building congregational relationships that nourish people spiritually and empower them to risk living, worshipping, learning, and serving God and each other in new and enlivening ways?

Transforming Disciples: The Episcopal Church of the 21st Century (Transformations)

This is a thorough, thoughtful book that wonderfully combines the richness of the Prayer Book marriage service with the best of psychology, sociology, physiology, and good common sense. It is wise, practical and long needed--The Rev. Carol Ander.
