Your church’s structures and programs exist only to provide a trellis for the growth of the vine, the community that ministers God's Word to one another. The Vine Project provides you with a road map and offers resources to achieve a church-wide cultural change.
This book will guide your ministry leadership team through a five-phase process toward change and growth, providing biblical foundations, practical insights, resources, case studies, exercises, and projects.
It will help you to:
Clarify and refine your convictions (Phase 1)
Reform your personal life to express these convictions (Phase 2)
Honestly evaluate every aspect of your church's or ministry's current culture (Phase 3)
Develop some key plans and implement them (Phase 4)
Keep the process running and overcome obstacles (Phase 5)
The Trellis and the Vine proposes a radical change of mind regarding church ministry. The Vine Project shows how that change of mind can and should shape every aspect of what we are doing to make disciples in all nations.
