"Excellent start to build strategic systems of your church" according to Norman Suniman. I got this book 2 years ago and it has been a prized reference for me. The ideas presented in the book will challenge old paradigms and stir up strategic thinking & evaluation of your church. Daniel Brown will bring you into thinking of designing a process that transforms people's life (as in a river) instead of just focusing on programs, attendance, per.
