Book Description
Schnase contends that sucessful congregations often have certain characteristics in common. These fundamental practices demonstrate congregational health, vitality, and fruitfulness. They also help churches fulfill their mission to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the tranformation of the world.
The five practices of fruitful congregations:
-Radical Hospitality
-Passionate Worship
-Intentional Faith Development
-Risk-Taking Mission and Service
-Estravagant Generosity

 Possibilities August 13, 2008
This book contains information on how churches can enliven their missions by making improvements in five areas. Since these five areas are discussed by other writers in mission improvement, I have reason to believe this book presents a plan that is worthwhile to attempt. We have just received the kit and are reviewing this to see how it can be coordinated with other educational programs and equipping efforts that we are implementing. Probably what a prospective buyer really wants to know is: "Does this work?" I cannot answer that yet, but it sounds like it is worth trying the program. I would suggest buying this book before buying the kit, so that you have an overview of the whole program, anyway.
Good for your church ... and your business June 9, 2008

The five practices apply to your congregation, but they also apply without much difficulty to most businesses. This is a great good book ... written well with valuable specific examples. Pick it up! Books like this don't come along that often.

This book is very insightful and gives a lot of food for thought. I highly recommend it for anyone who is seeking a deeper, more obedient relationship with Christ for themselves and their church.
