GoodBookStall Review:
This is a story well worth telling. It is about starting a church from scratch. ‘if you belong to a church already, this church is not for you’, said the website for The Net. It was a new kind of church for people who do not go. Dave Male was supported by the Anglican Church to be the pioneer minister to fulfill the vision. ‘Church Unplugged’ tells the full story including the trials and tribulations, but generally describes a success story with pointers for other people to follow. It is a good example of doing what some would say is impossible. This realistic and well written story gives the reader confidence to think that, under God, it could happen anywhere. Highly recommended if interested in Fresh Expressions: this book has principles that any church can put in to practice. I’d commend it to anyone.
