The Tattered Hat

Just finished reading it: How Churches And Leaders Can Get it And Keep it by Craig Groeschel.  I enjoyed reading this book.  It was a good reminder that the leadership needs to focus on what really matters, their relationship with Jesus. This book brought balance to all the things I've been reading lately.  It reminded me about how God is the one who changes lives and not copying the church down the street or implementing the "new" ministry strategy.

I really enjoy the last two chapters.  Craig talkes about how he had it and lost it and then re-gain it.  A lot of times at church we forget that its about doing everything we can to share the good news of Jesus with a world full of hurt and pain.  Instead we get caught up in being comfortable and not looking at people the way Jesus did.
