After Church?: Beyond The Pews

By Everett Bross

Church is 90 minutes on Sunday. The other 167 hours are where faith is actually built - or quietly lost.

Pastor Everett Bross is a third-generation pastor from Rockford, Illinois - 39 years of marriage, a father, and a working entrepreneur. After decades of watching people walk into the sanctuary one way and walk out the same way the next week, he wrote this book to answer the question that haunts most believers: What do I actually do on Monday morning?

After Church?: Beyond The Pews is a short, common-sense field guide for Christians who are tired of going through the motions. It isn't a theology textbook. It isn't a 12-week study. It's a small set of practices simple enough to start tomorrow, but deep enough to change the shape of a life.

Inside, you'll learn:
- The Rule of Five - a one-minute audit of your closest friendships that reveals exactly where your life is headed
- Three practical ways to measure your own faith - straight from Philippians and Romans
- A guided prayer of forgiveness with space for the names that have been weighing you down
- The "still small voice" discipline Elijah learned in the cave - and how to actually hear God in a noisy week
- A daily "security checkpoint" that keeps you steady when life pulls you sideways
- The "mini-vacation" reset Pastor Everett uses in stressful moments

With a foreword by his father, Pastor David L. Bross Sr., this is a book shaped by three generations of pastoral ministry - and written for the believer in the pew who quietly suspects there has to be more.

Perfect for:
- Believers who feel stuck in Sunday-only faith
- New Christians looking for doable first steps in discipleship
- Small groups - built-in space at the back for notes and discussion
- Pastors looking for a give-away book for new members

"Salvation is the starting line. This book is about the next steps."
