The Attractional Church: Growth Through a Refreshing, Relational, and Relevant Church Experience

Every church leader wants his or her church to grow. The promise of THE ATTRACTIONAL CHURCH is that if a church experience is positive -- the lost, absent, and unfilled will come and complacent people in the pew will have their faith renewed. The author says that the problem most churches have that keeps them from growing is the "methods" they choose for their outreach efforts. The local church must ensure visitors and members alike have a good and lasting impression of their experience in church, especially the worship service.

"You must get the first impression right!" the author insists. From the web site, Facebook page, Twitter accounts, leadership blogs, parking lot, worship facility and worship service . . . the total church experience must speak to people's emotions and be relational and relevant.

THE ATTRACTIONAL CHURCH is both motivational and practical with guidence on how to accomplish this transfomation, and also presents case studies of some of the fasting growing and most innovative churches in America. Here is a fresh vision for what the church can be.
