Every
time the church adopts the surrounding culture’s
values, it dies a little. Often it is brought to
the brink of the grave. In every age, the church
has had to wrestle for its very life. Paul’s
letter to the Philippians cuts across the
misplaced values of a self-centered culture.
Destroying Our Private Cities, Building Our
Spiritual Life is a lay commentary,
written in a homiletical and expositional style,
that enables readers to hear Paul’s argument
through Philippians and how the church’s
flirtation with individualism has affected our
faith and the life of the church. The danger of
our privatized, modern faith is exposed. Both
personal and church-corporate solutions to have
“the mind of Christ” are given.
Destroying
Our Private Cities, Building Our Spiritual Life
offers the lay reader insight, and offers
pastors and Bible study leaders plenty of
expositional depth on Paul’s letter to the
Philippians. |

Why I wrote
Destroying Our
Private Cities
· I
wanted to write a readable
commentary my mother could read without
dumbing-down the content
· Our
contemporary and privatized spirituality
seems divorced from church-life.
It’s not so much loving
the church that matters, it’s
loving a church that counts
· My
transition from a church-centered
ministry to a human service-centered
vocation gives me a new perspective on
faith and church-life
· My
respect, admiration, and gratefulness to
those in human service vocations--they
work so hard to help others, and
sometimes with little to no recognition,
and equally low pay
