Like a good physician, Dr. Jerald Daffe has placed his fingers on the current pulse of the Church and has run a series of tests. His diagnosis is that as Christ's body in the twenty-first century, we're sick—perhaps even terminally ill in some areas—and we don't even know it. The good news is that because this is Christ's church, the power of God's Spirit can work with us to change our condition. Or, to use Dr. Daffe's metaphor, the Church is "naked" and does not quite realize it—but he is not afraid to point to our unclothed condition and expose our need. However, this is not a disinterested physician who revels in dispensing discouraging news. No, indeed! This is one whose own love for God and the Church can be read through his imaginative words and between the lines as well. His pulse beats for the revival and reformation of the Church today.
