520    Picture your church as a place where the priesthood of 
       believers finds its expression in creative and powerful 
       ways. Picture leaders and staff equipping and unleashing 
       people to minister in ways consistent with how God 
       designed them. Think of the effectiveness, vitality, and 
       contentment that come when the body of Christ nurtures 
       itself through the healthy give-and-take of each member. 
       In The Equipping Church, Sue Mallory describes the 
       benefits, the structure, and the culture of an equipping 
       church and shows how your congregation can become one. 
       This book is about limitless possibilities. Think 
       "vision." What might your church look like if its members 
       became vital, fully empowered partners in ministry? How 
       can you help them discover and release their full 
       potential? How would their roles change--and yours? AN 
       EQUIPPING CHURCH IS A CHURCH WHERE: * pastors and leaders 
       enable church members to share in ministry * people's 
       gifts, talents, and life callings are matched with areas 
       of service * ministry opportunities are recognized and 
       developed * the culture encourages the growth of a broad 
       array of ministries *a well-designed system addresses 
       needs of every kind, both individual and corporate *the 
       pastor doesn't have to be all things to all people 
       Unpacking insights and principles uncovered by Leadership 
       Training Network over the last several years, Mallory 
       helps you customize an equipping system and culture in 
       your church. You'll proceed from preparation (what you 
       need to know), to foundations (what you need to change), 
       to construction (what you need to do). In the process, 
       Mallory takes you inside the story of her own church, 
       Brentwood Presbyterian, to observe the different stages of
       their trial-and-error journey and how it has transformed 
       their approach to "doing church." See how they dealt with 
       various concerns that arose along the way, and meet men 
       and women whose lives have been changed because Brentwood 
       took the ministry road less traveled. Each chapter 
       includes a section of "Equipping Principles," questions 
       for discussion and reflection, and a summary of different 
       equipping churches from around the country. With the 
       accompanying Equipping Church Guidebook, this book will be
       a mile marker in your church--and the gateway to a more 
       effective and biblical approach to ministry.
