Home Cell Group Explosion by Dr. Joel Comiskey is a brilliant new comet in the cell church firmament. This paperback book (150 pages) is already having a considerable impact, becoming a "best seller", according to its publisher, Touch Publications. The book crystallizes the author's findings in some eighteen areas of research, based on a meticulous questionnaire that he submitted to cell church leaders in eight countries around the world, locations that he also visited personally for his research. The detailed notes in the back of the book offer the student of cell church growth a rich mine for further reading. The beauty of Comiskey's book is that he not only summarizes his survey results in a thoroughly convincing way but goes on to analyze in practical ways many of his survey results in separate chapters. The happy result is that any cell church leader, intern or member completing this quick read will have his priorities/values clearly aligned and ready to be followed-up -- Henry Paasonen, C&MA Cellnet, March 25, 1998
