The Spontaneous Expansion of the Church: And the Causes That Hinder It

This book, originally published in the 1920's, is still used today in a wide range of missionary circles. This book was written for TODAY. Although the book is written in the context of cross-cultural church planting, it is applicable for any church that wants to grow. The title of the book is very appropriate.

This book is not for everyone. If you think the state of the Church is right where it needs to be, I'd recommend that you stay away from this book as it my ruffle your feathers. The Bible says that when Jesus taught that he spoke with authority (Matthew 7:29). This book has that kind of air about it.

This book is not an easy read nor for the faint of heart. It took me weeks to get through this book but it was well worth my time - and anyone's time who is passionate about seeing the Spontaneous Expansion of Christ's Church in our generation.
