Publisher Description

There's got to be more to church than this.

People around the world are seeking a community that focuses more on others than on themselves. Yet most don't know where to start.

Drawing from his own journey, Brandon Hatmaker reminds us that serving the least is not a trendy act of benevolence but a lifestyle of authentic community and spiritual transformation. In Barefoot Church, Brandon offers practical ideas for creating service-based, missional communities and explains how the organizational structure of a church can be created or restructured for mission in any context. He demonstrates how any church can truly be a catalyst for individual, collective, and social renewal.

Whether you are a leader or a layperson, this book is meant to renew your passion for the church and inspire you to take your affections off yourself, place them on people who have nothing to offer you, and lead others to do the same.

"A mostly easy read, but there were some parts in it that took a while to get through. It serves as part call to serve and part the reason why we should serve. A very good book. Highly recommended. It can help to possibly read Tangible Kingdom first, although it's not completely necessary."

    " One of the very best books I have read on what church can and should look like. I think I highlighted 2/3 of the book. A must read for church leadership ... and for the rest of us who are wondering how to serve like Christ. Be prepared though, this book will stomp on your toes! "

    " A challenging read. The author reminds us as followers of Jesus to DO, to ACT. Take your faith and be a light to the world around you. Show love and benevolence. This book gives some ideas and suggestions on how to do that in church as a group and individually. "

    " Some chapters I really liked, and other chapters impressed me with what he had done in Austin, Texas, but didn't translate to what I could do. A passionate challenge for the church to make Gospel a verb, to put flesh on it and aggresively serve the needs of our communities. "
