But there’s hope. In The U-Turn Church, two pastors who turned their churches around show you how to help usher in a new season of health, faithfulness, growth, and vision in your church. The U-Turn Church walks you through common roadblocks to growth into a hope-filled future. Isn’t it time to begin your own u-turn journey? Here’s the practical help and wisdom born of experience that you need.
Top Highlights
“A U-Turn is about the glory of God, the name of Jesus, the health of His bride (the church), and reaching a world that is in desperate need of a Savior.” (Page 17)
“If you are at the very beginning of the U-Turn journey in your church, pray with passion and fervor. Pray for revival, for renewal, and for a U-Turn that will bring glory to God.” (Page 68)
“The vision of God is for us to continue being shaped and formed into the likeness of our Savior” (Page 22)
“A U-Turn is first and foremost about lifting up one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It is about bringing the refreshing water of Jesus to a parched and thirsty world. The holy zeal that will move a church outward and upward is based on a desire to see people from every nation and tongue bow at the feet of Jesus and declare Him ‘Lord.’” (Page 21)
“By now you have discovered that the DNA of a U-Turn church is saturated with a commitment to evangelistic outreach” (Page 152)
