I have read everything he has written. Why? You would have to read two dozen books to get what you get in just one of Aubrey's. He is a master of boiling a big idea down to the essential action steps. He has done it again with <i>Look Before You Lead</i>."--Randy Frazee, author of <i>The Heart of the Story</i>; senior minister of Oak Hills Church<br/><br/>"There's no one better to bring a step-by-step leadership guide to pastors than Aubrey Malphurs. <i>Look Before You Lead</i> sheds practical and biblical light on the subject of church culture, a concept that many writers leave in the dark."--Will Mancini, founder of Auxano; author of <i>Church Unique<br/></i><br/>"A half century ago, no one in the United States was talking about church culture. Today church culture is a popular, but often misunderstood, concept. In <i>Look Before You Lead</i>, Aubrey Malphurs assists church leaders to define, discover, and design a church culture that wins people to faith in Jesus Christ. Whether you are a church planter, pastor, or consultant, this book will help you develop a spiritually healthy organizational church culture."--Gary L.
