Rhythms of Reformation

Church Leadership & Ministry

“In Rhythms of Reformation, Garth offers a compelling and deeply practical framework for navigating the challenges faced by the church today, especially in our post-pandemic world. He masterfully utilizes Richard R. Osmer’s four tasks of practical theology, an approach that allows for an engaging exploration of the current discipleship landscape and the urgent need for a new reformation and culture within the church. This book is more than just theological reflection; it’s a guide to cultivating a ‘self-initiated spirituality’ and building ‘future-proof’ churches that will endure for generations. Garth respectfully examines past church models and practices while prophetically calling for a stronger, more intentional return to biblical discipleship—an essential shift for any leader serious about fulfilling the Great Commission. I highly recommend Rhythms of Reformation to every leader and church worker. Don’t just read it; wrestle with its truths, process it with your team, and apply its wisdom to see genuine, transformative growth in your church and ministry.”
