4D Impact offers:
a diagnostic tool in each chapter to determine the current health and status of the reader’s church,
real time inspiration from practitioners who are experiencing health and growth,
guidance for readers to discern their level of fitness for their church assignment—is the leader/reader well-matched, or mismatched?, and
guidance for readers to determine if their church has reached a point of irreversible decline.
From the 4D Impact Introduction:
"I have been blessed to serve as the founding and lead pastor of what one of [the] original twenty-five leaders called a 'movement.' Twelve years ago we didn't set out to plant another United Methodist church—we envisioned a movement...I have learned a few things about church health and growth from my own experience as a church planner and from the many churches across the country that our team has supported and consulted with over the years. I have learned that the capital-C Church is full of grace, and I've learned that hard work and sacrifice are necessary for a local church to be vital and growing...
This book is for all churches and church leaders seeking to become vital and growing, or to remain vital and growing. This book may challenge you—I hope in a healthy way. It centers on four key principles for developing healthy and growing churches that smash barriers: Technology, Hospitality, Worship, and Systems. I am a living witness to these principles. As we say at Impact Church, you aren't called to lead an ordinary church; you are called to lead a movement."
