| Description: |
As a reformed theologian, Peter is clear that the church's welfare is rooted in divine grace rather than human efforts. But he convincingly contends that the trajectory of the church as an organization is intimately connected to its members choices. If a congregation wishes to transform its organizational life, its members must choose to do some new things. How do leaders motivate their congregations to make real and abiding changes in their shared life? This questions led him to the world of motivational theory, and eventually to writing this book, which will prove to be an invaluable gift to congregations whose leaders digest and impliment its insights.
