New Life for Dying Churches! It Can Happen Anywhere!

Summary: More than another DRY how-to book * WONDERFUL
Review: Dr. Rose Sims does a great job of sharing her personal experience working in dying churches. It is not just another dry and boring how-to book, nor just a rah-rah from yet another cheerleader. She shares practical wisdom born out of experience and enough of her own story to make you feel like that story is coming from a friend who cares about your church. We got several copies and passed them around the church! You'll want to as well once you read her book. A quick read, most of our folks said it took between 3 and 4 hours tops and almost everyone wanted to read it straight through. Thank you Dr Rose!

Summary: 5 Star Inspirational - Don't miss this book!
Review: I suspect that this book is of limited use in training persons how to grow churches. I suspect that to impliment the ideas in this book I would have to get a personality transplant to be more like Rose Simes.

But that doesn't keep me from enjoying it! This is one of the most fun, inspirational, exciting books I have ever read. It proves that change can happen, even in older, smaller, dying churches. Once you start to read, you will not want to put this book down. After you finish reading you will probably have a new spark of excitement for ministry and have a fresh vision for your own church.

Summary: Every church can grow and here is how to make it happen
Review: Saving dying churches is not a theory...but a proven fact and it can happen anywhere! Dr. Sims inspiring story is so unusual, enlightening and powerful, you'll laugh, you'll cry, you won't put it down. It is a success story of two of God's servants, each of whom won their denomination's top national awards for a lifetime of church growth. It is a "How to Grow a Church" story which any church can duplicate and it is a must for laity, clergy, church growth seminars, men or women's groups our church conferences.
