If, as Eric Jacobsen has argued in his recent book The Space Between, churches need to be reflecting on and engaging the built environment in their neighborhoods, then we are going to have to acquire the needed language for doing so. This volume is a helpful guide that propels us forward in the journey of talking about and engaging the built environment in the places we inhabit.
