Radical Church, The (CD)
Author: Dwight Pryor
Product code: CDS64
If a church modelled itself after the one of the NT, how would it differ from traditional ones? What emphases and organizing patterns would characterize it as Hebraic? Dwight provides guidelines to make ours more productive and authentically biblical.
Dwight challenges us to think with a biblical and Hebraic view of the community which is the church. We do not `go` to church, rather we meet `as` the church community in order first to worship our God, then also to edify each other.
The word `radical` literally means `of the root` rather than `extremism`, as it has come to mean today. In an age of enormous change in the world and within Christendom, there is, more than ever, a need to return to a `radical` understanding of the church.

About the Author
Dwight Pryor
(1945-2011) Founder of the Center for Judaic-Christian Studies in Dayton, Ohio. He was also a founding board member of the Jerusalem School of Synoptic Research in Israel. While studying in the Land, he came to realise the critical importance of understanding Christianity's Hebraic origins and dimensions and worked with both Christian and Jewish scholars there researching the backgrounds to the life and teachings of Yeshua Mi Natzeret, (Jesus of Nazareth) the Jewish Messiah.
As one of the most widely acclaimed teachers on the subject, for over 25 years Dwight and his wife Keren travelled world wide with their teaching and preaching ministry, seeking to make available to the Church an ever-growing wealth of study materials.
Their main aim was to equip believers for a fruitful life of participation in the purposes of God by learning how to think biblically. With this in mind they created a way for disciples, serious about understanding the Bible and yearning to get back to the Jewish/Hebraic foundations of their faith, to benefit from the teaching ministry of Dwight on an ongoing basis.
