From Publishers Weekly

Pastor and consultant Frazee begins with a problem that many church leaders admit only hesitantly: small groups, widely hailed as a means to achieve authentic community, often fail to achieve the hoped-for experience of "life together." This book follows the story of Frazee's congregation, Pantego Bible Church in suburban Dallas/Ft. Worth, in its efforts to "take [the small group movement] to the next level." Frazee's proposal is no quick fix; it belies megachurch stereotypes by taking a countercultural stand against the individualism and consumerism that Frazee says plague contemporary American life. Drawing on biblical models as well as sociological research and urban planning principles, Frazee makes a strong case that the mobility and privacy of "American Dream" suburbia fosters a spirit of fragmentation and isolation that is unworkable as a basis for authentic community. Frazee recommends "consolidating relationships," opting out of multiple activities and superficial social circles in favor of "a circle of relationships that produces a sense of genuine belonging." Small groups emerge as a necessary but insufficient ingredient for attaining Frazee's vision of "biblical community." The author's fondness for lists and systematization make for a dense read at times, but the human insights and real-life examples that really drive the book have a powerful appeal. Given the popularity of small group spirituality, and its potential discontents, this book should find a wide audience.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great Resource, Oct. 26 2009
Par Santosh Ninan "POMO Pastor" (Port Moody, BC, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I am a pastor of a small church in suburban Vancouver Canada. Our leadership is currently reading this book. I love the emphasis on community that has a strong outward missional focus. The focus on incarnational neighborhood groups is very good as well. In a culture of hyper-individualism, this book is a welcome antidote.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Essential Reading for All, Juil 17 2004
Par Ken Archer (Washington, DC United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Randy Frazee's book, "The Connecting Church", has influenced my thoughts on numerous areas of spirituality, Christian living, and church as much as any book I've read. Frazee's insights into daily life in today's large cities form an essential foundation for understanding so many of our current frustrations, both personal and institutional, both spiritual and emotional. To try to lead a spiritually or emotionally fulfilling life in the city, or to try to lead a church with any relevance to lives of citydwellers, one has to understand the basics of the development of the city.

It is worth mentioning here that cities are not generally mentioned in a favorable light in the Bible. The Genesis story, from the fate of Cain to the fate of Babel, indicates serious concerns that God has about the development of cities.

We should join Frazee, then, in not presuming that the lifetyle dictated by the modern city provides either an opportunity for personal fulfillment or, for Christian leaders, an opportunity for ministry. Maybe the city is the problem. Maybe the city developed from diverse forces which were oblivious to the spiritual and psychic needs of the self, such that to fulfill those needs, one needs to rebel against that which the city claims is normal daily life.

It is striking that the mode of daily life for over 99% of human history - in which one has a single circle of friends that span work, neighborhood, religious life and leisure, all of whom know each other and see each other spontaneously and frequently - has radically ended in the modern city. Now we have numerous circles of friends, who don't know the friends in the other circles, and very few of whom do we run into spontaneously. Rather, our get-togethers with friends are usually highly-scheduled and coordinated events, of necessity, in today's sprawled and fragmented city.

To think that one can have personal community, much less a church that ministers to people effectively, when we live this way, is a key source of our frustrations. Frazee's book further develops this thesis, with which I agree, and then advises the reader on creating the conditions for spiritual enrichment within the city.
