"After decades of planting churches and training planters, I've come to believe that the first work of planters is to ground our identity in God, lest we become possessed by our image. I can say one thing unequivocally about this book: Tim, with hard-won wisdom, identifies ten areas that are paramount for leaders to contemplate and engage, if we want to have a life worth imitating and not fall captive to the powers. This book is for planters who are in it for the long haul."
