I ordered Paul Nixon's new book, "We Refuse to Lead a Dying Church". I hope it arrives today! I, along with my congregation, have a special interest in this book because we are in it! Paul Nickerson recommended our church and our story to Paul Nixon for this book. Thank you to both Pauls.
Paul Nickerson was my coach, along with Jim Griffith, as I was leading Wollaston through its turnaround. These men are incredibly gifted in helping pastors stay grounded as much as is possible while leading significant change within their congregations. They each have websites outlining their national consulting work.
I am currently working on my second book with my the Alban Institute. I am back and forth on the title and am trying to decide between "Stay Awake! The Next Steps in the Turnaround Church", and "The Turnaround Church Part II; Next Steps in the Turnaround Church". Having a working title helps, but I can't let the title worry me today because I need to write. This book is a sequel to my first and will follow the second five years of the turnaround at Wollaston Congregational Church.
