Pour a fresh cup of your favorite blend, settle in, and enjoy the review. Make sure you catch the bonus links to content for church leaders at the end.

Top Five Reads
The following links are to content from other authors chosen for church leaders.
- Sobering news on “nones”, the growing number of Americans who claim no religious affiliation, from Pew Research.
- The struggles of the Church in America are well chronicled. So much so that, at times, we lose sight of how blessed Christianity is in America.
- Good stuff on following up on visitors for congregations.
- More than a decade has passed since I found a church that had more people volunteering than they could provide places to serve. This research unpacks why today its the other way around.
- I found this post has timely content for churches with members headed off to college.
