Product Description
In The Missional Leader, consultants Alan Roxburgh and Fred Romanuk give church and denominational leaders, pastors, and clergy a clear model for leading the change necessary to create and foster a missional church focused outward to spread the message of the Gospel into the surrounding community. The Missional Leader emphasizes principles rather than institutional forms, shows readers how to move away from “church as usual,” and demonstrates what capacities, environments, and mindsets are required to lead a missional church.

 The Missional Leader Review, 2008-10-21
I'm working my way through reading the Missional Leader. Alan Roxburgh's book is very thought provoking and is a kind of book that you have to stop and think and process while you are reading. I am currently studying the book along with five other pastors. We will be taking eight months to do this study. I am excited about what I am learning. I have been a pastor for 23 years.

 Review of, "The Missional Leader", 2008-09-08
I was thoroughly engaged by both Dr. Roxburgh and Dr. Romanuk as they discussed the various elements that contribute to the process of change. They make change easier to grasp by discussing its various element. This book also satisfies my desire for intellectual engagement about the Church and its relationship to the world that we live in. While it causes the reader to reassess the current direction of the Church, it encourages hope among those who wish to help foster more effectivity. I consider reading this book to be time well spent.

Important reading for church leaders., 2008-01-12
Excellent book to help guide a church into mission thinking and action. I recomment this for all leaders in a church that seeks to be "missional" in the true sense of the word.

Missional Church Leadership, 2007-12-23
Having read many books on leadership, and having read a few on the missional church, I was very pleased to find this volume with a missional approach to leadership. The author asserts that this approach can be used in any church setting to give the congregation more of a missional church direction. Although the entire book is well-worth reading, the most intensive section is chapters 3-5. I recommend this one highly.

 Parts very good, 2007-05-13
I'll be usng this book for a class that I am teaching. It covers the basics of "missional church" all right, but the strength of the book is chapters 3-5, where a change strategy for adopting missional church paradigm is lifted up. The last chapters, on leadership, I found less helpful in part because it is grounded not to the experience of a church becoming "missional" but to the author's evaluation instrument. The authors acknowledge but underestimate the membership loss that comes from adopting the missional paradigm: they estimate 10 to 15%, without systemmatic research I have found closer to 50% loss in several cases in the UCC.
