Sinopsis

This book explores the concept of an &ldquo,angel of the church.&rdquo, It begins with the question that so intrigued Walter Wink: Why would Jesus ask John to write to an angel in Revelation 2&ndash,3? This work develops, critiques, and expands Wink&rsquo,s answer. It does so by taking the historical records of three churches in England&rsquo,s West Country and bringing them into conversation with Wink&rsquo,s understanding of the angel of the church. It then goes further by introducing Wink&rsquo,s work to specialists in fields that include architecture, demographics, and church polity. This scholarly conversation creates a matrix within which ministers with pastoral charge might be equipped to explore the spiritual identity (or angel) of their own congregations.
