"Drs. Steve Parr and Tom Crites, two of our very fine Georgia Baptist Mission Board staff, have teamed up once again, as they did in writing the highly acclaimed volume, Why They Stay. This book, Pivot Points, presents fascinating and informative research on 74 Georgia Baptist churches that excelled across the board in the five qualities identified by Georgia Baptists as essential to healthy churches. These include: Spiritual Renewal, Kingdom Generosity, Church Revitalization, Church Planting, and Authentic Evangelism. A comparative study of several hundred other churches was utilized to identify key differences between churches that are thriving and churches that are not. Nine vital issues faced by our churches were examined with a focus upon the pastor as the key leader."
