Publisher's Synopsis
What's in a church?
A few songs, a thirty-minute sermon, childcare, and a gift bag? Is this all church is?Over the course of several years, Harry Cassin set out to explore the breadth of Christendom and search for the church's existential characteristics as they are practiced. He attended in-person services at dozens of churches of various denominations and sizes and talked to many pastors.
Those experiences became the inspiration for this book.
Why is it all so similar? Has the church perfected the Sunday service? Or does the Bible give Christians the freedom and the framework to do things differently?
Phantom Pillars is a theological and philosophical examination of the modern church.
We have the compass, but have we navigated to the right coordinates?
