About the Book

Framed as a discussion between a pastor six months out of seminary and a veteran pastor, this book tackles the issues of how churches grow and how church size determines effective strategy for ministry. The pastors' Saturday morning dialogues reveal ten areas that will help readers understand their own church's psychology, addressing questions such as: How do churches grow? How does change take place? What is the church's orientation? How is the church structured? Who sets the direction? What is the pastor's role? This is a vital resource for any new pastor, church planter, or lay leader concerned about his or her local church. Each chapter concludes with a "Taking It Home" segment.

Table of Contents:
