Church planning expert provides proven principles to help churches define their organization, give it direction, develop a vision for ministry, and build popular support.
A helpful book for someone (like myself) struggling with vision. Malphurs is very practical, yet also gives generalities when different situations may encounter different difficulties. His explanation of vision was greatly beneficial, in the sense that vision is a future picture of your church or ministry. It's not a goal or a dream necessarily, but it's an idea that you're trying to make a reality in your work. Find your vision, get people excited about it, and continue to excite people about the vision. All-around, this is a very helpful work from Malphurs.
Some solid advice and strategies based on years of experience. Will revisit this books if there comes a time in which I’m involved in crafting a vision.
