What is wrong with our church? As a pastor and church consultant I have heard that question over and over again. Concerned pastors, frustrated church boards and upset congregational members have struggled over what to do about shrinking attendances, unmet budgets, dissatisfied church people and ministry programs that just never seem to get off the ground. This book with its stories and illustrations from many churches with whom I have worked has been written to provide an encouraging and enlightening answer to that question. My approach in consulting with churches and ministers has been to be keenly honest, strongly biblical, and engagingly sensitive. It has always been positive from the start and refreshingly to-the-point.
