Lead the kind of ministry you've always dreamed ofMany congregations are declining due to an inward focus, and see their pastor as someone who should only minister to their needs. But pastors must anticipate a better future. Direct Hit offers hope to leaders of congregations that have lost their outward focus.

Once change has occurred, a whole new world of opportunity opens upa world in which you are privileged to equip, lead, and oversee a congregation that has joined God's mission. Ready. Aim. Go for it!"e;Church leaders need more than motivation and inspiration. In Direct Hit, Paul Borden explains how to change dysfunction to health and decline to growth."e;Leith Anderson, Senior PastorWooddale Church, Eden Prairie, MN"e;Direct Hit gets to the heart of the matter. Pastors--it's about Christ and leadership. Congregation--it's about Christ's purpose and mission. There is plenty of interpretation and coaching here for both sides of the pastoral relationship, but above all there is urgency. It's time to stop dithering and get on with it."e;Tom Bandy, PresidentEasum, Bandy, and AssociatesPaul Borden, is Executive Minister of Growing Healthy Churches (formerly American Baptist Churches of the West) and is in demand nationally as a church consultant.
