Review: Rick Warren has written a gem, a textbook for all church planters, pastors, and church leaders, who want to have growing, healthy churches. The book stresses the need for the church to become purpose-driven and not program-driven. Many have criticized Rick for his methods in reaching the unchurched culture, but one only has to see the explosive growth of Saddleback Church and the many churches who have implemented the Biblical principles in his book, to realize that God has His hand in it. Moreover, Warren never encourages other churches to copy the Saddleback model, only the Biblical principles therein.
