The Church Planting Guide to Spectacular Failure
And How You Can Actually Succeed
A brutally honest, practical guide to avoiding the mistakes that sink church plants. Not a theory book — a field guide from someone who’s lived it.
“Charlie Miller has been in the trenches, he is in the trenches now, and he offers helpful insights on what church planters need to know… I would recommend any church planter spend time with this book.”
Jim Collins

“With humor, wit, and a bit of snark, Charlie points out the flaws that plague church planters. And because he’s lived through some of them himself, he shares the lessons he learned from his own failures—always pointing us back to the Scriptural truths that keep us from face-planting in ministry.”
