Andy Stanley is the senior pastor of North Point Community Church, Buckhead Church, and Browns Bridge Community Church. He also founded North Point Ministries, which is a worldwide Christian organization.
Enjoyed the Starting Point class at Crossroads Christian Church in Westminster, MD. Even though I was raised Christian, this book provided simple imagery, practical questions, and great discussion points. I would love to lead a Starting Point class in the future considering how many good conversations and deep thoughts came from the coursework. . Videos/audio from Andy Stanley were on POINT.
The videos that went along with the book are better than the book itself, but the book was still really good information and good things to think about.
