Reviews

This is the book you'll want on your shelf and will want to read carefully and digest if you hope to master a rudimentary understanding of the way family systems theory addresses leadership in a congregation. New England Lutheran Theological Forum Dr. Steinke once again illuminates the path towards healthier, more effective church leadership. He consistently provides deep wisdom that is both relevant and transformative. -- James Boyer, pastoral psychotherapist and organizational consultant A faithful book, full of insight and illustration. -- Rick Foss, Bishop, Eastern North Dakota Synod, ELCA In his first two books, Peter Steinke effectively offered the lens of family systems through which to see congregational life. In this new book, he continues his tradition of wit, clarity, and insight while moving to a new level of depth and artistry. -- W. Craig Gilliam, Director, The Center for Pastoral Effectiveness, The Louisiana Annual Conference of the UMC
