REVEAL

by Mark Novelli

Have you had a chance to read the book REVEAL yet? It is a really interesting account of the research findings of Greg Hawkins and his team at Willow Creek Community Church. What they found through their surveys shocked them and made them question some of their approach to ministry. I have personally been around Willow quite a bit lately, and I really believe this research is changing the way Willow Creek does ministry.

Greg will be with us this year at SHIFT sharing what he thinks some of the implications of these findings could be for youth ministry. Here is a video about REVEAL.

Seth said...It is really encouraging to see Willow asking some of these questions. We are asking some of the same questions, mainly the assumption that participation in programs, classes, and groups leads to spiritual transformation.
