Between September 2010 and December 2011, three major quakes and hundreds of aftershocks struck the greater Christchurch area (and they still continue to strike): one of the largest natural disasters in New Zealand history. Rubble to Resurrection brings together many previously untold stories of how the region's churches fared and how the ordinary folk in the pews were able to reach out to their suffering neighbours.

This book also asks what can be learned from this experience and be used to benefit others in future..
