Kudos! If we in the church do not learn to "build bridges" to those who do not know Christ, how will they hear of Him! Dr. Lewis does an exceptional job of challenging believers to become spiritual architects...building relational bridges. Such a philosophy is so radical, it's actually Biblical!

Be careful who you share this book with because it could change your church into a moving and exciting experience.Every church leader in America needs to read this one short excellant book.

Lewis's book is beyond doubt a good read, it will inspire you with is plain language honest truth assessment of the church's performance in the dynamic of building community but don't expect to find too many pragmatic answers here though.

The author is a pastor with a defined gift of leadership and administration. The premise of the book is simple- the church must become involved in the community to be relevant. Social activism is the new hot button in the church. The book's failure is in clearly showing how the average small church pastor can put legs to it.
