Churches are dying left and right. Thom Ranier is well known for helping churches grow, but he has also performed "autopsies" on churches that have died. In doing so, he has discovered themes, trends, and practices that typically contribute to the death of a church.

Does YOUR church have the traits of a dying church? If so, Ranier helps you identify them and offers some points of hope.

A good read for pastors and other church leaders. It is brief (just over 100 pages) so it does not offer a comprehensive "pull out of the box" program to save a dying church, but it will help direct your, and your church's, thinking.
