"This book expresses very well the character and giftedness required for effective local church leadership."

Dr. Keith Farmer, Principal Emeritus of Australian College of Ministries

Do you think church is dull or irrelevant? Jesus’ plan is for his church to embody God’s love and hope in everyday life. More Than Just Church tells the story of how one local church reimagined itself to follow Jesus into contemporary culture and invites you on the same adventure.
