Purpose Driven Church, The : Every Church is big in God's Eyes

---

Outline: "There is no correlation between the size and the strength of a church!" insists Rick Warren. "Big is not automatically better, and neither is being small automatically better. Healthy is better!" As a "pastor or pastors," Rick Warren has trained over 400,000 pastors from 164 countries, insisting that church health, not church growth, should be our focus. "If a church is healthy, growth occurs naturally and consistently. But health only happens by balancing all five biblical purposes of the church without overemphasizing some to the neglect of others." Every church is driven by something. Tradition, finances, buildings, culture, and even personalities can be the driving force in a church. In contrast, Rick Warren explains, healthy churches are driven by something. Tradition, finance, buildings, culture, and even personalities can be the driving force in a church. In contrast, Rick Warren explains, healthy churches are driven by eternal purposes that Christ created his Church to fulfill. In this book ...
... you'll learn the biblical strategy behind Saddleback Church's amazing record of non-stop growth - baptizing 22,000 new believers in the past 10 years, creating over 5,000 small groups that meet weekly for Bible study and ministry, and sending out 14,800 members as missionaries to every nation on earth through the P.E.A.C.E. plan, while helping plant hundreds of new churches.
... you'll be inspired by the struggles of a young church plant that didn't own a building for its first 15 years yet during that time grew to over 10,000 in attendance.
... you'll learn a biblical structure that will enable your church to grow ...
- Warmer through fellowship
- Deeper through discipleship
- Stronger through worship
- Broader through ministry
- Larger through evangelism
The book is about a disciple-building process, not a church-building program. Warner says, " If you focus on building people, using the process Jesus gave us, God will build his chruch!"
