What if the future of the Church is relational rather than institutional?

Rediscovering Church as Networks offers an insider's guide to the Non-Denominational Charismatic Churches -one of the most significant and fastest-growing movements in global Christianity. These churches are frequently misunderstood as isolated or loosely organised. In reality, they are connected through dynamic, Spirit-led networks that function as a genuine alternative to traditional denominations.

Drawing on over forty years of church leadership, extensive teaching experience, and sustained official engagement with the Vatican, Dr Richard J. Roberts brings rare depth, balance, and credibility to this conversation. He traces the emergence of new churches across the West and the Global South, exploring their theology, leadership patterns, and relational structures with clarity and care.

This book offers a thoughtful and grounded account of:

• How relational church networks develop and function
• Why apostolic and charismatic leadership continues to shape local churches
• How NCCs adapt to cultural change while remaining mission-focused
• The strengths, challenges, and future potential of network-based church life

Written for anyone interested in the life, mission, and future of the Church, Rediscovering Church as Networks helps readers understand not only where these movements have come from, but why they matter today.

If you are seeking a clearer picture of how churches are organising, leading, and growing beyond traditional denominational models, this book will equip you to engage the conversation with insight and confidence.
