Big things can come in small packagesWhat does "bigger is better" mean for churches? Are great things for God only taking place in larger congregations? Or have steady, smaller churches been quietly transforming lives all along?After studying various smaller, "plateauing" churches from around the country, Ruth A. Tucker weaves together her interests in church growth and spiritual formation to show that smaller churches bear the greatest mantle for Christlikeness. Left Behind in a Megachurch World shatters the myth that only megachurches are leading the way for Jesus and shines a spotlight on ordinary churches doing extraordinary deeds.Whether you're a pastor, ministry leader, or member of a smaller congregation, Tucker's unique writing will encourage and inspire you as it shows you how you can make a big impact for the kingdom of God.Tucker, Ruth A. is the author of 'Left Behind in a Megachurch World How God Works through Ordinary Churches', published 2006 under ISBN 9780801012693 and ISBN 0801012694.
