Product Highlights

True textbook for teaching Church growth

Outlines and details three aspects of Church Growth: History, Theology and Principles

"This is a book not only for seminaries and Bible schools, but for pastors and church leaders wherever they might be and whatever their denomination. If you want to get your church off dead center and moving vigorously forward for the glory of God, you will find no better resource."

—C. Peter Wagner, founder, Global Harvest Ministries, co-founder, World Prayer Center

The Church Growth Movement has divided devout Christians. Even though Rainer is an advocate, his aim here is to present an objective view of the movement--its history, the theology associated with it, and the principles which seem to separate churches that grow from those that don't.
