It equips pastors and ministry teams to build a culture where people consistently feel valued, take spiritual steps, and find lasting belonging as part of a spiritual family.\n\nIf you want to close the back door and build a church where people truly belong, this book shows you where to begin.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1954961022\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: HBSV.1954961022.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Chesnut, Steve|Little, Jeff\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book  is in good condition and has some writing, underlining, and or highlighting inside.
