Cordeiro and Lewis, Culture Shift

Cordeiro and Lewis have nailed it.  If churches want to be authentic and thrive, they have to change their church culture.  It is not about programs or tactics; it is about what's missing at the heart of a congregation - a loving, biblical culture in which transformation can occur. This culture represents the intersection of three values: God's kingdom agenda, who you are, and your unique setting.

The authors drive home the point that we all know but curiously ignore - it is up to the leaders to set the culture.
