Publisher Description
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.

“Tony and Felicity Dale are at the forefront of a revolution that is brewing in the body of Christ today. That revolution is marked by a growing number of Christians who are gathering outside the organized church and finding Christ in fresh ways in Christian community. This book will give readers a window into some of the exciting things that are marking this revolution. Among other things, you will discover that Jesus Christ can be profoundly known and expressed outside the typical structures of institutional Christianity in new and simpler forms of church life. Read this book and join a revolution that just might outstrip the Reformation!”
— Frank Viola, author of From Eternity to Here and Pagan Christianity?

“In a time that is crucial, God sent a precious gift to our nation—Tony and Felicity Dale. There are few people I respect and love as much as I do these two. It is my privilege to call them friends and coworkers. Their experience is a prophetic voice to us, and this book gives wings to that voice.”
— Neil Cole, author of Organic Church and Organic Leadership -
“Tony and Felicity Dale ask the right question in this book: why is the church growing in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, while thousands of churches are closing and church attendance is at an all-time low in American and Europe? They ask the question and they tell us the God answer! Don’t miss this book!”
— Floyd McClung, international director of All Nations
