Building Up the Church: Live Experiments in Faith, Hope, and Love, the companion volume to Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove's book, New Monasticism: What It Has to Say to Today's Church (2008), is a practical study guide to invite the church to imagine that another ways is possible as it lives into its identity as God's peculiar people (Titus 2:14). Its stories, reflection questions, and suggested exercises are designed to catalyze local churches and Christian communities into becoming laboratories for the gospel kingdom--that is, communities that serve the living God and their neighbors by carrying out experiments in faith, hope, and love.
