Reseña del libro "When the Lord's House Closes: Church Repurposing and Urban Community Practice (en Inglés)"
Functioning churches are an integral part of a community, not only for the active members of a congregation, but in providing myriad other services to the broader population - from food, housing, and other charitable outreach to hosting local events, to serving as election polling locations. So what happens when a church closes? Declining religious affiliation, accelerated modernization, and a number of other demographic, ecological, economic, and political factors mean that church closures are increasingly common in the United States. When the Lord's House Closes examines the forces behind these closings and provides community-centric recommendations for repurposing church buildings. With a focus on cities and communities of color, Melvin Delgado's analysis highlights the rewards and challenges of urban church repurposing. With the aid of case studies, this book considers whether, and how, community needs and interests can be factored into decisions for how a closed church might be used.
