When was the last time you visited a church for the first time? For most Christians, the answer is "not recently." We settle into our comfortable routines, worshiping with familiar faces in familiar ways. But what if you stepped outside your tradition for an entire year? What would you discover about God, his church, and yourself? Peter DeHaan and his wife, Candy, did exactly that.

When was the last time you visited a church for the first time? For most Christians, the answer is "not recently." We settle into our comfortable routines, worshiping with familiar faces in familiar ways. But what if you stepped outside your tradition for an entire year? What would you discover about God, his church, and yourself? Peter DeHaan and his wife, Candy, did exactly that. For a full year, they visited a different Christian church every Sunday-from tiny rural congregations to sprawling megachurches, from centuries-old liturgies to brand-new church plants. They sang traditional hymns with pipe organs and contemporary choruses with rock bands. They experienced stoic reverence and exuberant celebration. They encountered genuine Christian community and painful isolation-sometimes in the same morning. With refreshing honesty and gentle humor, Peter shares their journey through America's diverse Christian landscape. Along the way, he offers invaluable insights for church leaders seeking to improve and members wanting to better welcome visitors. Whether you're a pastor, a worship team member, a longtime churchgoer, or someone who's given up on church altogether, 52 Churches will challenge your assumptions, expand your understanding, and renew your appreciation for the beautiful, messy, magnificent body of Christ.

Autorenporträt
Peter DeHaan, PhD, often makes religious people squirm, but spiritual seekers cheer. He's not trying to be provocative, but he seeks truth, even if it makes some people uncomfortable. He yearns for Christians to push past the status quo and reconsider how they practice their faith in every area of their lives. Peter earned his doctorate, awarded with high distinction, from Trinity College of the Bible and Theological Seminary. He lives with his wife in beautiful Southwest Michigan and wrangles crossword puzzles in his spare time.Learn more at PeterDeHaan.com.
