"Every church should be an equipping centre. Every congregation needs to be continually training and developing Christians for ministry. Colin Marshall has provided us with this superb training manual. I regard it as one of the best amongst a proliferation of such materials. Col's expertise is this area is outstanding. I would love to see every church utilise this manual for the training of its leaders." - Dudley Foord
"One of God's kind acts to me was to introduce me to the life and ministry of Colin Marshall. The last twenty years of Col's wise counsel, godly example, original thinking and persistent pursuit of Biblical, faithful, gospel-centred goals have been a major enrichment to me personally and to our church. this book will bring to a wider audience the wisdom of this great servant of Jesus. I pray that those who read his words will gain something of the benefits that those of us who know him personally experience." - Phillip Jensen.
