Swimming Against the Tide
Sometimes four-star reviews are simply for books that do exactly what they intend to do from the outset. Having read this, I feel like I can run asset mapping with my congregation, or any group really, and get something out of it. Some of the theory behind it is interesting, though nothing is ground-breaking. This is a functional text, though, not a theoretical one. IF you want to be able to go do asset mapping, read this book.
