Emphasizing the priority of the Gospel, Mez McConnell and Mike McKinley, two pastors working in successful ministries among the poor, offer biblical advice and practical strategies for planting, revitalizing and growing churches where needed. difficult, whether in our own communities or elsewhere in the world.
