Fifth Installment in Popular Visiting Churches Series Explores What Happens When You Give Churches a Second Chance
Christian author Peter DeHaan announces the release of Revisiting 52 Churches, the latest addition to his acclaimed Visiting Churches series.
Available now in ebook, audiobook, paperback, and hardcover, this compelling new work takes readers on a return journey to many of the churches featured in DeHaan’s popular book 52 Churches, offering fresh insights into what really happens when you give churches a second chance.
“One visit isn’t enough: discovering what really happens when you return to church” is the guiding principle behind Revisiting 52 Churches.
In this fifth book of the Visiting Churches series, DeHaan chronicles his experiences revisiting congregations he first encountered years ago, revealing the transformations, challenges, and enduring truths he discovered along the way.
The book offers a unique perspective on church life that goes beyond first impressions, making it an invaluable resource for ministry leaders seeking to understand visitor retention, small groups looking for meaningful discussion material, and individuals on their own spiritual journeys seeking personal enlightenment.
“Learn what happens when you give church a second chance,” DeHaan invites readers. This fresh exploration challenges assumptions about church culture, community, and commitment while providing practical insights for both church leaders and seekers alike.
“Many people have pointed out that visiting a church once is not enough,” DeHaan said.
“I agree with them, while also noting that if churches don’t make a good first impression, most visitors won’t come back a second time. This book shares many of those second visits.”
Revisiting 52 Churches is now available in multiple formats to accommodate every reader’s preference, including digital, audio, and print editions in both paperback and hardcover.
