TRANSFORMING COMMUNITIES:
Re-imagining the church for the 21st century
By Steven Croft
Darton, Longman & Todd
226 pages. £10.95
ISBN 0 232 52456 4

This book by the Warden of the Anglican training college, Cranmer Hall, is about change in the local church. It explores the need for change and the nature of the change required as well as offering guidance on implementing change.

The title contains a deliberate double meaning: it is about transforming existing churches into communities who will bring transformation. The answer suggested by the book appears to come down to the formation of small groups within larger congregations.
