Church planting is at the forefront of pastoral conversations these days, and in the new book Starting Missional Churches: Life with God in the Neighborhoods (IVP), a team of experienced planters share the stories of church plants that are making an impact in their communities. Edited by Mark Lau Branson and Nicholas Warnes (himself a planter), the stories contained in this helpful volume offer real-life counsel that will help future church planters in this vital task.
