THE SEED-PLANTING CHURCH

The Seed-Planting Church Commended by Mission Leaders:

" Proposing biblical principles, The Seed-Planting, Nurturing Church shows how the church can be revitalized by God's design. While traditional, institutional churches try to renew themselves with visionary leaders who mold the church in programmatic or organizational ways, this book focuses on the organic, natural body of Christ," community of faith" design. It displays a nurturing seed-planting model in place of a maintenance harvesting style of church. Mission and church growth leaders tell that this book fills "a neglected niche" in growing healthy churches. "Werning has seen a neglected niche in church planting and has written a well-crafted book to meet that need." Dr. Elmer Towns.

"Every once in awhile, a new book comes along and challenges us to think 'outside the box.' Such is The Seed-Planting, Nurturing Church He proposes a radical, redesign of church strategy based on biblical principles and examples." Dr. Gary McIntosh.

"Powerfully practical will change your church from a bureaucracy to the movement that God has called Christianity to be I have already begun using this material in my work with churches." The Church Doctor, Kent Hunter.

"Waldo Werning has put his finger on the basic issue of the church in North America. Will it be an institution or will it be part of the missional movement?" Dr. Robert J. Scudieri.

"A trip to an Iowa farm and review of the biblical agriculture narratives provide the author with a powerful metaphor to help us distinguish the problems facing today's churches." Dr. Ken Behnken.
