<note>&#34;This book could turn thousands of declining congregations from despair to hope if it is read seriously by clergy and laity. The reader will find a rich tapestry of stories blended with a solid synthesis of theory. The most viable of options for redevelop-ment are insightfully explained. Finally, the author offers provocative questions to consider in making the hard decisions and beginning the extensive work that rede-velopment necessitates. Leaders of struggling congregations will find in this book a complete resource for discernment and planning. Alice Mann's latest contribu-tion should be required reading in all seminaries and on the desk of every informed church leader.</note>
