Many in the Church feel bewildered and lost today. Being a Christian isn\u2019t looked at the same way it was even half a century ago, and the world continues to change and morph as it never has before. It\u2019s one thing to show up on Sundays, but what does it mean to be the Church in a time and culture that no longer seems to think we are relevant?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Unravelled<\/span><\/i> is an exploration of three distinct expressions of being the Church as told through three true stories of those seeking to transform culture with God\u2019s Kingdom: a burgeoning megachurch that hit a wall when its founding pastor had to suddenly step down, a group of praying friends who accidentally became a church, and a church planter who took up residence in a depressed neighborhood and got so busy helping people and revitalizing the city that his \u201cchurch\u201d never got built.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”RGBA(75,63,65,0.07)” custom_padding=”|40px|52px|40px|false|false” border_radii=”off|||12px|12px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Xx6sUX” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Purchase on Amazon” button_alignment=”left” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”rediscover” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_padding=”11px||88px|||” top_divider_height=”30px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ background_color=”RGBA(75,63,65,0.07)” custom_margin=”26px|auto|0px|auto|false|false” custom_padding=”40px|40px|0px|40px|false|false” border_radii=”off|12px|12px||” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”708px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”|||on|||||” header_2_font_size=”22px” header_3_font_size=”40px” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”141px|40px|172px|40px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”141px|40px|172px|40px|false|false” custom_padding_phone=”40px||40px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_3_font_size_phone=”32px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” border_radii=”on|12px|12px|12px|12px” global_colors_info=”{}”] By Jon Petersen<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/citytable.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/unveiled_home2.png” alt=”photo of outer space” title_text=”unveiled_home2″ url=”https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Xx6sUX” url_new_window=”on” align=”center” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ background_color=”#FFFFFF” max_width=”100%” custom_css_main_element=”border-radius: 12px;” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”RGBA(75,63,65,0.07)” custom_margin=”0px|auto|0px|auto|false|false” custom_padding=”0px||25px||false|false” border_radii=”off||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ link_font=”||||on||||” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_margin=”29px|40px|5px|40px|false|false” custom_padding=”40px|40px|40px|40px|false|false” border_radii=”off|12px|12px|12px|12px” global_colors_info=”{}”] In <\/span>Unveiled<\/span><\/i>, Jon Petersen takes an honest look at his nearly half century of ministry.
