Croatian Summary:

Philip Yancey u ovoj knjizi postavlja pitanje koje proganja mnoge vjernike: Zašto bismo se trebali zamarati s crkvom? Odrastajući u Georgiji, u fundamentalističkoj crkvi i pronašavši se u crkvi ulice LaSalle u Chicagu, Philip razmišlja o crkvi i o raznim metaforama kojima je Biblija opisuje. Yanceyevo rano iskustvo fundamentalističke crkve udaljilo ga je od vjere. U knjizi Zašto Crkva? pruža nam tračak njegovoga povratka vjeri i crkvi kao mjestu pravoga zajedništva i duhovne živosti. Ova iskrena i pronicljiva knjiga pomoći će vam u potrazi za odgovorima na pitanja o mjestu crkve u životu vjere i pronalaženju duhovne povezanosti i zajedništva.

English Summary:

Insights from Philip Yancey’s personal pilgrimage away from and back to the church. Why are there so many more professing Christians than churchgoing Christians? Is it because something is wrong with the church? In his candid, thought-provoking manner, award-winning author Philip Yancey reveals the reasons behind his own journey back from skepticism to wholehearted participation in the church, and weighs the church’s human failings against its compelling worth as the body of Christ. Yancey does not whitewash the church’s faults, rather he sets them against the overwhelming balance of its strengths: its heart for God, its care for the hurting, its outreach to the lost, and its value as family and community.
