[.ca] Doing Church As A Team (ISBN 0830726527)

Why didn't I think of that!:
This is an excellent resource for leaders and lay people in churches which are growing or the folks would like it to do so.

Raise the bar of excellence by reading this book:
Doing Church as a Team revitalized our church, and inspired us to reach new heights of mobilizing people for ministry. It is a book of hope, enabling you to believe more in God, and His plan for your life and others'. It contains practical words of wisdom and insight for building a church of small groups or teams versus a church with small groups. Wayne Cordeiro is a master storyteller. He really motivates and encourages you to press onward.

Principles that work by someone who is living them out!:
Pastor Wayne Cordeiro and New Hope Christian Fellowship are living proof that Doing Church as a Team really works. This simple but profound truth has changed the way we are doing church. It is not another book about church growth, or just another book you will read and let sit on the shelf. It is an excellent tool to move your church into teams. Our staff, and church leadership read the book and began to implement it right away. You will enjoy the stories but better yet you will enjoy the principles you can use. I recommend this book.

Doing Church as a Team:
Pastor Wayne captures the essence of Ephesians Chapter Four and the heart of effective ministry that is "gift based" and driven by volunteers rather than paid professionals. The key to the book is that God has placed gifts, dreams and abilities in each person and they must be seen as valuable. Release those dreams and passions and with very little motivation these people will serve and become a mobilized force living out their God given passion. This book has helped our local church to become far more successful and have a greater impact on our community. We have grown in numbers and in volunteers here in our California church. I highly recommend it to you. The leaders New Hope (Wayne's church) is raising up and deploying is amazing.
