Top 10 Books For Church Planters
Starting a new church is the most leader intensive enterprise in the world. A new, growing church needs a growing leader. As the old saying goes, all leaders are readers and that especially true of growing leaders. With that in mind, here are my top 10 recommended books for church planters:
10. Good to Great by Jim Collins
9. Go Big by Bil Cornelius and Bill Easum
8. Simply Strategic Growth by Tim Stevens and Tony Morgan
7. The Art of the Start by Guy Kawasaki
6. The Performance Factor by Pat MacMillan
5. Biblical Church Growth by Gary McIntosh
4. Rediscovering Church by Bill and Lynn Hybels
3. Community of Kindness by Steve Sjogren
2. Leading At A Higher Level by Ken Blanchard
1. The Purpose Driven Church by Rick Warren
Bonus Recommendation (warning, author is biased):
Launch: Starting A New Church from Scratch by Nelson Searcy and Kerrick Thomas
