Many churches and denominations often appear to settle for a primary objective that is less than what the apostles recommended. Even most church leaders acknowledge an inconsistency in our institutional sense of purpose. While some churches have a narrow definition for the purpose of the church, other churches leave the definition so broad that it seems meaningless.

In Go: The Church's Main Purpose, George Hunter examines the ways the church has losts its way and offers instruction for returning to the correct path—mission. This mission is a serving, witnessing, inviting outreach to all people. Including personal stories, insightful wisdom, and practical instruction, Hunter's richly descriptive explanation of the "missional church" will convince leaders and students to recover a clear and consistent sense of purpose. Hunter's insightful writing carries a sense of urgency while still retaining his characteristic humor.
