review 1: The basic idea of the book can be a very helpful one - integrate the work of the church and the work of the family to create new synergy for the mission of God in the world. Or in other words, YELLOW + RED = ORANGE. Although there is a somewhat conservative-leaning bias toward the family and church present in the book, it is actually a quite open-minded read and able to be adapted to various visions of church and family. And while individual and social life is actually a whole rainbow of overlapping realities which need to be addressed, RED (the family) and YELLOW (the church) do indeed need to experience some reconciliation. Concerning the structure of the book, there is a lot of unnecessary repetition, but you can just skim over these parts. The two main concerns I ... morehad throughout this read were the possibility of an over-emphasis on (a particular vision of) the family and a constant danger of marginalizing single persons. These concerns need to be addressed. Good read, good advice, but read with some caution.
review 2: I've been familiar with the reThink group for several years and even used their curriculum as a small group leader when I was in high school. As someone now leading a children's ministry, I can say that their strategy just makes sense. This book offers tons of insight to leaders for kids aged from preschool to high school. If you want to make a greater impact for Christ in your kids ministry, I suggest you read this and begin to rethink how you do ministry. less
