Book excerpt: A practical churchgoer's guide.In the scramble of recruitment and the incorporation of new ideas, many churches have lost their way. The sense of community and purpose that is so key to a church has lost its firm footing, and many churches are either floundering or merely collapsing.It is this phenomenon and problem that Johnson sets out to fix in his new book, Taking the Pulse of Leadership in YOUR Church. Half-critique, half-guide, Johnson goes to great lengths to expose and rectify this growing epidemic. Included in this guide are directions on how to assess your own in-church problems, a toolkit on how to fix the issues, and a roadmap on how to plan for a better future.This book is a must have for all aspiring or flailing church communities, and is a primer on the value of social research in a broader spectrum of contexts.
