Bob Whitesel, one of the church's foremost experts on leadership, growth, and change, offers help for pastors and congregation leaders who struggle to develop effective strategies for reaching today's generation with the good news of Jesus Christ. This book defines and describes the journey most people in today's culture follow as they move from a lack of awareness of the gospel through conversion to spiritual maturity. Whitesel identifies distinct stages or "waypoints" in this journey and helps church leaders understand how to guide seekers in taking the next step from where they are.
