Product Description
A theologically grounded, yet practical, user-friendly guide for church leaders seeking to save their churches. A methodical, logical approach for strategic development and decision-making. A clear process for showing congregations how to define their reality, and a map showing the way to move forward.

Offers a clear process to help congregations understand their situation by taking an honest "look in the mirror."
Helps congregations build a realistic roadmap for moving forward.
Illustrates how the status quo (institutionalism) is rewarded and that seeking transformation goes against institutionalism.
Outlines what it means to be an adept church, a church that can navigate between a rock and a hard place because it makes decisions based upon where it needs to go and not where it is currently.
Provides practical, first step for congregations to move forward.

Your church is in decline and some tough decisions need to be made. But members of your congregation are too close to the situation to see what’s happening. How do you get them to take an honest “look in the mirror” to understand the current situation? What’s more, how should they respond once they’ve assessed the situation? The Adept Church helps congregations develop realistic road maps for navigating between a rock and a hard place with a clear process for defining reality—a process based on strategic decisions concerning where the church needs to go and not where it is currently. A theologically grounded, yet practical guide for church leaders seeking to save their churches.
