Customer Reviews

Church revitalization.

Robert Schnase's book is being used the Virginia Conference United Methodist Church's as a great resource for revitalizing small and large churches. There have been wonderful results by using the five practices and ideas outlined in the book. A great resource for churches.

A must for all new church members

I got this for an adult Sunday School class, and we all like it so much that we are thinking about making it part of our new member orientation. It is an outstanding book, along with the prayer book, to get folks out of the pews and doing God's work in the community.

Good for your church ... and your business

The five practices apply to your congregation, but they also apply without much difficulty to most businesses. This is a great good book ... written well with valuable specific examples. Pick it up! Books like this don't come along that often.

Thought Provoking and Insightful

This book is very insightful and gives a lot of food for thought. I highly recommend it for anyone who is seeking a deeper, more obedient relationship with Christ for themselves and their church.

Superb book!

One of the most practical and inspiring resources I have found in many decades of church work. Beautifully & engagingly written.
