About the Author:

Philip Wiehe is a church consultant, specializing in helping parishes with clergy searches, long-range planning, mission statements, crisis management, and vestries. He is an Episcopal priest who lives in Virginia. Linda McFadden, who lives in Virginia, is a United Church of Christ pastor who specializes in communications.

Review:

"Philip Wiehe has based his thoughts on the essentials of church life and witness on some of the most significant words of the Gospel. There is no greater challenge for the church in our generation than 'to make all things new' through the power of the Spirit--and in so doing to be renewed itself. How Philip applies this process to life in the United States must equally apply to all the Christian world today."
