Contrary to the reader above (who stated that the church which the author pastors, wasn't spiritual, etc.), who certainly has his own biased agenda, Pantego Bible Church is a very dynamic and mature church. In addition, the Pastoral staff has an amazing heart for the Lord and His people. I suggest you read "The Connecting Church" by Frazee to see how on fire this church is! Their emphasis on spiritual formation and community is transforming lives and impacting neighborhoods. This book is great to learn principles for change, revitalization, and other leadership issues. I have seen first hand how Pantego Bible Church has been used by Jesus Christ for His Kingdom!

I have been a member of Pantego Bible Church for 12 years, and it ROCKS! God's presence is overwhelming with the other followers of Christ surrounding. I must say I have not read the book, but I had to add my 2 cents because of the 2 reviews written without a real view of PBC and it's members.

I concur with the first reviewer. The lack of true spirituality and presence of God within the church, especially since the move, is very disturbing. The exodus of long time and commited members is impressive.
The book is okay, but you have to consider its' source first.

And there is no agenda here, I am just a simple man that has been there and seen.

Before implementing the ideas presented by this author in this and in his new book, readers would be wise to check out the depth of spirituality and commitment currently in existence at Pantego Bible Church.
