Summary: Let's go for "faithful" rather than "effective"
Comment: Attempts to moderate somewhat between the church growth advocates and the traditional side, but falls short on many counts. The title itself is a foretaste of what is to come, i.e. good advice on how to be more "effective," such as people techniques, organization, etc., but why not concentrate on the more biblical concept: "faithful."

Consider the Pastor Paul writing advice to Pastors Tim and Titus. Never does he talk about this quality and effectiveness and efficiency that most books deal with on pastors who want success. Teach the word purely. Be a bondslave to the gospel of Christ. Expect attack. Lean on the Lord. Sheep will safely graze and pasture, under a watchful shepherd's eye.

Means means well in what he offers. Much good to combat the modern tendencies to lead the flock with more consideration of what the sheep want. I found him talking on both sides much of the time.
