Church Planting in the Secular West
Book • 2016
Stefan Paas's 'Church Planting in the Secular West' analyzes recent European experiences of starting churches amid secularization and declining church memory.
Combining missiological theory with case studies, Paas identifies different church responses and practical lessons for planting in urban, secular contexts.
The book offers frameworks for formation, identity maintenance, and adaptive mission strategies that avoid naïve attempts to reclaim cultural power.
It underscores relational evangelism, contextual sensitivity, and long-term investment in discipleship and community.
Paas addresses how varied church models fare and what practices foster resilient Christian witness in post-Christian societies.
