This book is written from within the Church, not against it, and from love for pastors and congregations who labor faithfully under difficult conditions.

Across denominations and traditions, faithful leaders are working harder than ever?preaching truth, running programs, and caring for people?yet many are troubled by a quiet question: Why aren't believers growing into mature, Christ-like disciples?

The problem is not a lack of sincerity, Scripture, or effort.
The problem is the system itself.

In Church Must Change, Rev. Dr. Mark Swiger offers a prophetic call for the Church to examine whether its current structures can produce the maturity Scripture demands. Grounded in the Word of God and shaped by decades of ministry experience, this book challenges readers to discern the times we are living in and to respond accordingly.

This is not a call to abandon the Church, nor to wait for a future revival before acting. It is a call to pursue true discipleship now, even as the Church transitions between old and new wineskins.

The question is not if the Church must change?but whether we will be ready when it does.
