{"product_id":"9781433675911","title":"Tribal Church: Lead Small. Impact Big.","description":"\u003cbr\u003eToday, leaders don’t fail because they lack vision. They fail because they neglect their tribe. It could be a father losing sight of his family, a lead pastor failing to leverage the strengths of his staff, or a small group coordinator ignoring a tiny but important process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eTribal Church\u003c\/i\u003e helps pastors recognize the potential and power of various tribes within their congregations—one family, a network of small groups, maybe an entire age group—and then recalibrate ministry efforts to maximize the impact of each. Steve Stroope has spent three decades mastering the art of leading small in a church that has multiplied from dozens to over ten thousand. He explains why big impact does not come from any sort of mega-church ambition. It rather comes by attending to the little details and the smallest tribes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEndorsements:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"Steve Stroope has done us a favor by collecting three decades of experience into one book. One glance at the manuscript and I thought of a dozen uses for it.  First, it will strengthen my leadership skills. I can envision our leadership team reading it as a group.  Seminaries should tap into its wisdom.
