Released in 1995, The Purpose-Driven® Church rapidly secured its place as a long-term best-seller. The Gold Medallion Award-winning book by Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church has since offered thousands of pastors, church leaders, and lay persons worldwide a vivid and compelling vision for church growth based on church health. Now in unabridged audio format, Warren's proven, five-part biblical strategy can help you build your church . . . By building its people. What drives your church? Every church is driven by something. Tradition, programs, personalities, events, seekers, and even buildings can each be the controlling force in a church. But Rick Warren believes that in order for a church to be healthy, it must become a purpose-driven church, built around the five New Testament purposes given to the church by Jesus. Drawing on Warren's proven five-part strategy, now you can enable your church to grow . . . - Warmer through fellowship - Deeper through discipleship - Stronger through worship - Broader through ministry - Larger through evangelism The Purpose-Driven Church shifts the focus away from church-building programs to emphasizing a people-building process. As Warren says, "If you will concentrate on building people, God will build the church."
