Excerpt from Hymns of the Living Church The Church of to-day is deeply stirred by a desire for Service, Missions, Unity, and Work, and we have endeavored to make such the spirit of this hymnal. We have retained the notable and familiar hymns, which, through years and centuries of use, have become a part of the life of the Church while, in addition, we have freely used those which emphasize the living, active, forward movement of to-day.

What exactly is a living church? Author John Stott explains, 'We need more radically conservative churches: "conservative" in the sense that they conserve what Scripture plainly requires, but radical in relation to that combination of tradition and convention that we call 'culture'. Scripture is unchangeable, but culture is not.' 'The Living Church' brings together a number of characteristics of what the author calls 'authentic' or 'living' church. The marks, being clearly biblical, are timeless and need to be preserved. We are encouraged to become learning churches, caring churches, worshipping churches and evangelising churches. John Stott unpacks the Bible's wisdom rigorously with a teacher's skill and applies it faithfully with a pastor's heart. Becoming a living church is not an impossible goal.
