Summary

It is not difficult for the observant Christian to recognize a church in decline. In every small town, suburb, or city, there is often a church on the brink of shutting their doors, or at the very least recognizing the stagnancy of a church’s growth. Matt Capps and Steven Wade know this not only from observation, but from experience in their own revitalized churches. In Shepherding Renewal, these pastors address the hardship of serving a church in decline, and even more so address the need to breathe new life into the dying church.

Critics Review

“This book by Matt Capps and Steven Wade is important. This is not a volume of theories dreamed up in an ivory tower; it is the fruit of seasoned pastors who have lived what they write. They do not portray the pastor as a CEO or visionary guru, but as a shepherd who loves his sheep and as a servant of God seeking a revitalized church.”
