Publisher Description
What if I told you that you were only one step away from unlocking new levels of maturity and growth in your church?
The myth of the silver bullet still exists because we desperately want it to. We all prefer quick fixes and bandage solutions to the long, hard, slow work that produces real change. So the moment we learn about a new ministry or strategy and see its effect in another church, we run to implement it in our own. Unfortunately, this impulse is usually met by opposition, skepticism, and ultimately, rejection.
What if the solution isn't a new model or a complicated strategy, but a shift in perspective? What if you could keep your church's current vision, values, and model, and simply make a few micro-shifts...leading to macro-changes?
This book explores five micro-shifts that have the potential to produce macro-changes in your church. As you read, you will discover how to integrate these micro-shifts into the life of your church, starting with the way you disciple. You will finish by developing a plan to structure, communicate, and evaluate these changes to ensure that they take root and pave the way for lasting change and kingdom impact.
Customer Reviews
Incredible book for anyone in ministry
No Silver Bullets manages to elegantly serve as both a gentle critique of why churches struggle to effectively lead people toward maturity and at the same time be a thoughtful offering that there may be a better way. Daniel Im draws on both his personal pastoral experience and tremendous data-driven research to suggest 5 micro-shifts that have the ability to manifest dynamic change in a church’s ministry culture. Each of these micro-shifts is well articulated and practically rendered in a way that the reader feels immediately inspired to initiate change and begin to experience the fruit of this micro-shift in their context.
For our team this put concrete language to ideas we had been dancing around yet seemed illusive. This book has been a tremendous gift to our church.
