"Here's a book that takes us into the heart of a lived experience,
a social setting, most of us will never penetrate. And it does this
through the prism of the Christian gospel. It embraces the fields
of sociology, history, culture and theology. A truly wonderful
achievement."
Lord Leslie Griffiths
"A heart-warming Kingdom of God story of how five
(traditional/Methodist) churches in working-class Manchester found
new partners and friends and a new future."
Rev. Dr. Neil Richardson, former Principal of Wesley College
Bristol and President of the Methodist Conference 2004.
"This exciting book brings together striking and varied community
stories and projects, along- side insightful discoveries on the
life and ministry of Jesus, especially in his parables. Take it and
go and do likewise!"
Rev. Dr. John Vincent, former Director of Sheffield Urban Theology
Unit and founder of Ashram Community Trust.
"Kingdom People is a searching, honest and incisive account
depicting the challenges facing any traditional mainstream church
with a real desire to relate to the inner-city and the work- ing
class. It's a tough journey requiring those involved to 'let go and
let God'! A compelling read. "
Rev John Stacy-Marks MBE, retired Director and founder of the
Amelia Trust Farm and former Community Chaplain at HMP YOI
Ashfield.
