Welcome

Welcome to the website, which contains information about the first book in the
Because Approach series, "Innovating church for all". This site is a supplement to the book and will only make complete sense as a companion to the book. The site will contain up dates to the book, resources linked to the 6 steps, case studies (which you can download and print out yourself) and comments by users of the Because Approach.

This book was shaped in the crucible of a small local church passionate about reaching out to local people. A lot of the material comes from experience of growing a church from scratch rather than relying on less transferable models of mega churches.

My dream is that the book will help as it will be intentional in what we as churches and as individuals do. Jesus sends out his 12 disciples (Matt.10) and he gives them clear instructions on what to do as they go into the harvest fields - they didn't walk from village to village with no plan, but with clear intention from Christ for our churches. I hope the Because Approach will help your church know the because behind everything you do - because church is worth it!
