Summary: Be careful! Kallestad's program isn't for everyone!
Comment: While the church should be concerned about making itself a welcoming place for others, it should not be at the expense of the flock that is already there. Kallestad suggests to the pastor who wants to make a church for others to encourage present members who don't like the new program to find somewhere else to worship. This thinking came close to destroying my church. Approach this book with caution!

Summary: Let's get started!
Comment: Walt Kallestad uses this book to present a revolutionary blueprint for a different type of church: a church for others. The author points out a problem of which most churchgoers are not even aware. While Jesus commanded his disiples (and us) to "Go into all the world" modern Christians are more interested in church programs for ourselves. Kallestad details the transformation of Community Church of Joy from a church for the members to a church for others. But he doesn't merely give us the history of the church. Each chapter is filled with practical teaching and action steps that can be followed to transform your church into a vibrant community that considers the needs of those outside the building.
I think every pastor would be encouraged and challenged by this wonderful book. One final point: Kallestad's church had 200 attending on a normal Sunday when Walt took over. Now it has 12,000!
