SIMPLE CHURCH Hits #1 on Church & Ministry ChartSimple Church: Returning to God's Process for Making Disciples remains at #1 on the Church & Ministry bestsellers list based on national sales figures compiled by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Assocation.
The book has also just been named the 2007
Christianity Today Book Award winner in the Church/Pastoral Leadership category.
The magazine's award judges said, "This very practical book addresses a big gap in most evangelical churches: the lack of a functional process for actually making disciples (not just incorporating church attenders)."
Simple Church was also recently named by
Outreach magazine as the Best Outreach Leadership Training Resource of 2007.
Written by popular church growth author
Thom S. Rainer and Miami pastor
Eric Geiger,
Simple Church clearly calls for Christians to return to the simple gospel-sharing methods of Jesus. No elaborate, multi-level outreach strategies required.
Based on case studies of four hundred American churches, the book shows how the process for making disciples has quite often become too complex. Simple churches are thrivng, and they are doing so by taking four ideas to heart: Clarity. Movement. Alignment. Focus.
