We are seeing what is now reaching a critical mass of people crying out for renewal and reform, as we experience the consequences of living in a withering civilisation. It is being evidenced by the huge swings in support for the Reform Party in the UK and One Nation in Australia, the 2026 UK local council elections, the massive crowds that flooded the streets of London for the 'Unite the Kingdom' march, and the quite bold reforms of the US Administration. While there may be right-wing extremists among them, the numbers suggest a tipping point has been reached away from the left-wing parties, institutions, and legacy media. If we are to see significant and lasting renewal and reform, it needs to be curated by the movement and values that fermented civilisation in the first place. This book presents an overview of what the Biblical Library says about how the Spirit who came at Pentecost still empowers us to live lives that can significantly impact disintegrating communities. We look at how to navigate the often turbulent waters of renewal and reform in church and state institutions, and rediscover a Christianity with the power to transform communities and nations.
