This book takes an honest look at the rise of consumer-minded ministries. The authors tackle a spiritual shift that is raising provocative issues such as: the blurry line between entertainment and evangelism; a marketing approach to ministry; the warped yardstick for measuring church success; and feel-good messages that avoid tough truths. -- from back cover.
