A world-renown church researcher and a team of church planters have reached the same conclusion - smaller is more effective. Using statistics, stories, Scripture, and strategies, they present a convincing argument for the method today's church should adopt for effective ministry.
If you put two elephants in a room together and close the door, in 22 months you may get one baby elephant. But two rabbits together for the same amount of time will result in thousands of baby rabbits! In
The Rabbit and the Elephant, “micro church” planters Tony and Felicity Dale use the “rabbit” illustration to show the pace at which the Christian faith can (and should) be growing—through evangelism that is explosive and transformational.
The Rabbit and the Elephant contains the key to 21st century evangelism—taking the gospel to where the pain and the people are.
Features: - Documents how “church” across the world is changing from being event-based to life and relationship-based.
- Shows how small and simple churches can multiply rapidly.
- Shows how to incorporate spiritual growth and outreach into every aspect of our lives.
- Includes relevant research on churchgoing habits and impact gathered by the Barna Group.

A must read for every Christian. Simple church is here to stay. The legacy church is losing members while the rest of the world is growing in Christ. How do we reach the lost? Simple church makes simple sense. Acts 2:46 tells us that we meet in the home and go where the people are. The authors do a great job in explaining how simple church came to be and where it is heading. They do not hide the truth and the problems simple churches face. it is about giving God's church back to His people. Amen.
