About this product

Product Information

How do we live out the message of Jesus in today's ever-changing culture? The church is facing its greatest challenge--and its greatest opportunity--in our postmodern, post-Christian world. God is drawing thousands of spiritually curious "imperfect people" to become his church--but how are we doing at welcoming them?No Perfect People Allowed shows you how to deconstruct the five main barriers standing between emerging generations and your church by creating the right culture. From inspiring stories of real people once far from God, to practical ideas that can be applied by any local church, this book offers a refreshing vision of the potential and power of the Body of Christ to transform lives today."We now are living in a post-Christian America--and that means we must be rethinking ministry through a missionary mindset. What makes this book both unique and extremely helpful is that it is filled with real-life stories of post-Christian people becoming followers of Jesus--not just statistics or data about them." Dan Kimball, Author, The Emerging Church." . . John's 'get it' factor with people, lost or found, is something to behold! Reading this book filled me with optimism regarding the next generation of pastors and faith communities . . ." Bill Hybels, Senior Pastor, Willow Creek Community ChurchNo Perfect People Allowed is a timely and necessary word for church leaders in a post Christian culture. John Burke serves up quite a tasty meal full of the rich nutrients that will strengthen the Body of Christ. Randy Frazee, Senior Pastor, Pantego Bible Church; Author, The Connecting Church and Making Room for Life

by amOjAvXsQJC@Del...Feb 09, 2011
Knowing the book was Christian related, it catches you
I liked the basis for writing, that people are imperfect and not always welcome in a Christian Church, when in fact we should be. Writer does point out current Church faults and how it doesn't measure up to Jesus teaching. However he does seem intent on "selling," his Gateway Church in Austin. He states that Gateway is for everyone, yet in his many accounts of proselyting people, they are all mid-twenty, college grad's who are employed by hi-tech hi-dollar corporations. Overall in spite of a well intended beginning, the book ending was not interesting. Far too repetitious.
