Doing Church as a Team: The Miracle of Teamwork and How It Transforms Churches

by Wayne Cordeiro

Overview

When a Church Works Together, God Can Do Amazing Things

"To be a successful leader, and if you plan to have a successful ministry, you must develop not only your gifts, but more so, the gifts of those around you." -Wayne Cordeiro

Everyone is a great fit . . . somewhere, and God has strategically called and gifted each individual for a specific role and purpose. The twenty-first-century church must be a battleship, not a cruise ship, but that can only happen when everyone finds their place in ministry.

In Doing Church as a Team, Dr. Wayne Cordeiro shows you how to identify the hidden callings of the members in your church so that together you can accomplish anything God is asking you to do.
