I really liked this book. I like the style used with interviewing Fr. Michael and interspersing with quotes from other pastors, business leaders, and most importantly the Bible. It gives some practical tips on improving a parish for the end goal of bringing people closer to God and Jesus Christ. While every Catholic parish is unique (size, style, age, constant change, etc.) all these elements need to be combined to make a parish work at its best. While not all his examples will work for every parish (he points that out) some can be treid and most importantly, it begins with PRAYER. Go figure! Thanks, Fr. Michael, for taking the time to write this book. God bless. Authors' personal experience is what drew me to the book. I also liked how they weren't afraid to admit they had screwed up a number of times--it is always very comforting to read a book from an author or authors who don't feel like they have the magic cure to everyone's problems. Reflection questions were also helpful--if reading in an e-book format, I recommend checking out their website and the additional content available there.

You can't argue with their results but I'm not convinced I like all their methods.
