2012 Christianity Today Book Award winner 2011 Leadership Journal
Top Book of the Year Copastors Kent Carlson and Mike Lueken tell
the story of how God took their thriving, consumer-oriented church
and transformed it into a modest congregation of unformed believers
committed to the growth of the spirit--even when it meant a decline
in numbers. As Kent and Mike found out, a decade of major change is
not easy on a church. Oak Hills Church, from the pastoral staff to
the congregation, had to confront addiction to personal ambition,
resist consumerism and reorient their lives around the teachings of
Jesus. Their renewed focus on spiritual formation over numerical
growth triggered major changes in the content of their sermons, the
tenor of their worship services, and the reason for their outreach.
They lost members. But the health and spiritual depth of their
church today is a testimony of God's transforming work and enduring
faithfulness to the people he loves. Honest and humble, this is
Kent and Mike's story of a church they love, written to inspire and
challenge other churches to let God rewrite their stories as well.
Read it for the church you love.
