God is using Al to fan the flames of this today. * Jon Tyson, author & pastor, Church of the City New York * With humour, wisdom, and practical guidance, this book is a timely call for the church to reimagine its mission and for every follower of Jesus to release the God-given creativity that can transform lives, communities, and even nations.
