waveycowpar's review against another edition
4.0
Neil Cole is one of the best voices talking about a new Church for the 21st century.
As with many of those voices really he is talking about going back to Scripture and seeing what is there to bring to the Church of the third millennium.
Although I do not agree with everything he says in his book there is a lot of great material contained within it.
I intend on writing myself a note for when I complete seminary to go back and re-read this book as it will remind me why I want to be involved in Church leadership.
I would encourage all Christians to read Cole's book. It is challenging, insightful and brings up many questions about the failings we can see in the way the Church has been run in the past. Cole has made all this very readable and clear and has a good 'command' of Scripture.

An excellent book on "organic" church and operating a church with a missional mindset and mode. Cole does a great job touching on both the theological basis for such a church as well as addressing practical questions.
