Surprising Insights from the Unchurched
A Review of the Book by Thom Rainer
Joshua Teis
July 02, 2011
Surprising Insights from the Unchurched by Thom Rainer is a book that surveys those that Rainer refers to as the formerly unchurched. As opposed to many of Barnes research studies that merely survey those that are unchurched, Rainer goes further to find those who were unchurched and why they have chosen to get involved in church, and what influences helped them to make these important decisions.

Dr. Paul Chappell

Good, strong, faithful churches in our day are increasingly being enticed away from the foundation of Scripture. In an effort to draw a crowd, they are actually being drawn into the crowd.
