Open for Business Brett Aiken

With plainspoken clarity, Brett Aiken poses a piercing question for anyone who would take up his cross and follow Christ: In our myriad and increasingly complex ways of "doing church" in America, have we created something that no longer even remotely resembles the New Testament Church? Are we so smitten by how we do church that we've lost sight of the biblical essentials that would define us as the Body of Christ? If a church body is growing, is that reason enough to believe it is in tune with God's purpose? In Open for Business, Aiken lays out the Bible's clear recipe for building the kingdom of God. Open for Business is not a scholarly attempt to reach the reader's mind, but a spiritual attempt to reach the hearts of those who are willing to ask themselves the question: Am I truly Open for Business in the eyes of God?
