Our elders recently read Simple Church together for our annual elder retreat, and it was both refreshing and convicting. The book challenged us to reexamine how easily churches can become cluttered with programs that distract from the clear, biblical mission of making disciples. Rainer and Geiger do an excellent job reminding leaders that simplicity is not about doing less for the sake of convenience—it’s about doing what matters most with clarity, focus, and purpose.

Their emphasis on clarity, movement, alignment, and focus gave our leadership team valuable tools to evaluate how we shepherd our congregation.
We came away encouraged to streamline our ministries, communicate more intentionally, and ensure that everything we do contributes to making disciples of Jesus Christ. Simple Church is…

As a pastor, I appreciated how this book calls undershepherds to care for their own souls so they can faithfully care for the church. It is biblical, practical, and especially helpful for pastors who can neglect their spiritual and physical health under the demands of ministry.
David Murray writes in the Foreword: The minister s soul is the soul of his ministry. I can t remember where I first heard this saying, but I ve never been able to forget it. And, having read this book, I never want to forget it. In these pages, Jim Savastio and Brian Croft establish the foundation of all faithful and fruitful ministry the pastor s soul. But, although their main target is the epidemic of ministerial hyper-activity and the accompanying burnout, backsliding, and brokenness, they carefully avoid over reacting and running to the opposite extremes of monkish withdrawal or…
