You believe in the love of Christ, but does love for one another shape your church’s current culture—or the culture your church hopes to build?

Coming alongside you as a fellow church member and a biblical counsellor, Helen Thorne-Allenson offers practical, realistic insight into contributing to a church culture of care.

You’ll consider…

  • Stories of care and of care needs that you recognise or relate to
  • Why care matters, what it looks like and why it’s difficult
  • How to encourage others to get involved and share the load
  • 11 building blocks for you and your church

Reflection questions at the end of each chapter will help you practise the principles shared.

However far along your church is in cultivating a caring community, you’ll find clarifying questions, fresh ideas and biblical wisdom in A Church That Cares.
