5.0 out of 5 stars Doing Church as a Team, October 4, 2001

This review is from: Doing Church as a Team (Hardcover)

Pastor Wayne captures the essence of Ephesians Chapter Four and the heart of effective ministry that is "gift based" and driven by volunteers rather than paid professionals. The key to the book is that God has placed gifts, dreams and abilities in each person and they must be seen as valuable. Release those dreams and passions and with very little motivation these people will serve and become a mobilized force living out their God given passion. This book has helped our local church to become far more successful and have a greater impact on our community. We have grown in numbers and in volunteers here in our California church.
I highly recommend it to you. The leaders New Hope (Wayne's church) is raising up and deploying is amazing.

I was slightly disappointed in this book. While it is solid from a spiritual basis, it is weak on the nuts and bolts, which is where many of us are seeking help.

5.0 out of 5 stars Raise the bar of excellence by reading this book, June 14, 2001

This review is from: Doing Church as a Team (Hardcover)

Doing Church as a Team revitalized our church, and inspired us to reach new heights of mobilizing people for ministry. It is a book of hope, enabling you to believe more in God, and His plan for your life and others'. It contains practical words of wisdom and insight for building a church of small groups or teams versus a church with small groups. Wayne Cordeiro is a master storyteller. He really motivates and encourages you to press onward.
