"With the humor and wonder of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy . . . Henderson's book gets it right--we are all questing for hope and meaning in a noisy world where there are so many competing truth claims. In this book we find hope and a clear call back to the church as a reimagined community bent on living lives that are wholly committed to remaking the world in God's image." --Erik Vincent, Humanities Instructor "This is a needed, timely book. . . . Bob rightly likens a rediscovery of the church to the restoration of a masterpiece, uncovering ages of neglect and abuse to reveal the stunning beauty of what was laid down by the artist. . . . Read this book. See Jesus' masterpiece of the church and all the skillful strokes and bold colors that are you and me." --Shayne Wheeler, Senior Pastor, All Souls Fellowship; Author, The Briarpatch Gospel "Bob Henderson's book sheds light upon the often elusive, enigmatic 'elephant in the room'--the church. Readable, down-to-earth, practical, illuminating." --Ed Elzey, Musician; Mime; Storyteller "There is an emerging generation of younger adults for whom the church is a building full of aging folks. . . . So Henderson engages [them] about a topic always on his heart, and often on theirs. His tone is warm and friendly. This is an engaging conversation worthy of wide acceptance." --Bill Pannell, Professor of Preaching Emeritus, Founding Director, African-American Studies Program, Fuller Theological Seminary "This book is full of worthwhile information on the church through historical and Biblical contexts. I highly encourage anyone who is even remotely interested in Christianity, or the church, to read this book. It will bless and encourage you." --Robert Hays, coffee shop manager
