Review

"Stuart Murray has been a wise and consistent voice in the whole church planting adventure. This new book interprets both past experience and future possibilities to offer a well-integrated text for our guidance and encouragement. It will go immediately to the top of the list of books to be recommended on this subject."
-- Nigel G. Wright, Principal, Spurgeon's College, London
"Planting Churches is full of wisdom. It will rapidly become a standard text book on the subject for pioneers from a range of churches.
-- Steven Croft, Archbishops Missioner and Team Leader of Fresh Expressions
"This book is a valuable resource for all those crazy people who have chosen to embark on the exciting and daunting journey of becoming church today, especially for those who are prepared to ask some tough questions about their route and destination rather than simply follow well-trodden paths and arrive at all too familiar models of church that still dont work!"
-- Juliet Kilpin, Baptist minister and co-ordinate Urban Expression
