I pastor a small church in a small place. Thus, when I saw this book, I was immediately interested. As Stephen Witmer points out, plenty attention is giving these days to urban ministry models, but it seems rare when somebody gives attention to ministry to small places. He challenges us to think about the desire to have a "large impact" and to think through what type of impact we are to expect in gospel ministry. I'm glad I read the book, and I might need to read it semi-routinely.

I pastor a small church in a small place. Thus, when I saw this book, I was immediately interested. As Stephen Witmer points out, plenty attention is giving these days to urban ministry models, but it seems rare when somebody gives attention to ministry to small places. He challenges us to think about the desire to have a "large impact" and to think through what type of impact we are to expect in gospel ministry. I'm glad I read the book, and I might need to read it semi-routinely.
I am nuts about books. I read on all kinds of topics. I attempt to review each book I read for the sake of my own enrichment as well as conversation starters with others.
