Andy Stanley Quotes

A church leader I love hearing and reading is Andy Stanley.

Great speaker and writer…

Here are some thoughts from a conference he spoke at late last year… I know a little behind the times but better late than never.

We made a fundamental decision years ago that we were going to be more committed to reaching people than keeping people.
