  “Not a bad book. I liked the first half better than the last half. When he was talking less generically and mores specifically about his experience with congregations the book was more helpful (both where I agreed and where I disagreed). It was a very quick read.”

  The major contrast is between the master plan and organic order - the latter being necessary for the future of faith communities. My guess is that the book will be useful no matter what kind of church or faith-community a person finds themself in. ”

  “This is the best book I have ever read. It gave me permission to actually say things I've thought for a long time. It's the most freeing challenge to program based church leadership I know of.”
