Book recommendations, Day 4

Any leader in any church can benefit from reading Earl Creps’s Off Road Disciplines: Spiritual Adventures for Missional Leaders. Len Sweet of George Fox University writes, “This is one of the most exciting books I have read in years. It shifts our focus form doing church to being church and promises to be a standard reference in all future discussions of missional leadership.”

Ed Stetzer of LifeWay Christian Resources says, “Too many of us have made spiritual formation a series of activities and programs; Earl takes us off the map of common practice and into the places where the Spirit is at work.”

When I was a pastor, our staff went through this book together, and we were better for it. Off-Road Disciplines gets my highest recommendation.
