Reviews for The Purpose Driven Life Devotional for Kids

[ineilc-279646 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

In twenty years of local church ministry this has been the most transformative book I have ever read and implemented. What is offered is not so much an off-the-shelf product, but a thinking process. When local churches engage with this process, it transforms every aspect of them. The book is not primarily about church growth, but church effectiveness, which leads to growth. I also write as someone who disagrees with some of Rick Warren's own doctrinal stance - but that is not the point! The point is local churches think about serving the present age. Otherwise they have no point.

the subtitle should be "A Jesuit Handbook for Taking over the Protestant Church" ... just kidding.

Rick Warren's seminal work on the core purpose of church and using the experiences he has gained from planting and building Saddleback Church in California

[jepursell · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Rick Warren presents the structure, philosophy, and theology that are the foundation for Saddleback Church. While a prescription for the megachurch of which he is the lead pastor, it is written as a guide for utilizing these principles to structure your church without suggesting that this is the only way to structure a church.
