Summary: The Power of "Dynamic Dialogue"
Review: Dave Fleming understands that the great resource in the Church
is the people that God had brought together! His book not only
explains the rationale for "creative conversations", but literally guides you in the "how to's" of making it happen.
This could be a "manual" for bringing out the best ideas in your small groups, student leaders, and pastoral team. Great read!

Summary: Discovering Your Church's Future Through Dynamic Dialogue
Review: The development of meaningful discussion is central for Dave. He works almost exclusively Out-of-the-box. Dynamic Dialogue is filled with tactical ideas in the form of conversation starters and something Dave calls 'Experiencercises". If you are facing questions like: How do we get to the next level? How can we foster authentic life? How can we sustain this momentum that is emerging? Dynamic Dialogue should prove to be very helpful. Essentially, it is written as a practically principled deployment handbook, not your typical technique focused 'how-to'. Dave assumes you already 'get it', but you just need some practical applications along the way, but don't be fooled the down to earth philosophical implications won't be missed! While the book is a sort of quick read really . . . for me Dynamic Dialogue will undoubtedly become another of my well worn reference books that I routinely pull off the shelve for a quick fix. This book approaches everything from the dynamics of creating space for discovery and creativity in the decision making processes with team members, to the temptation of replacing heart with technique and becoming another church clone. That's not to mention the healthy approaches to discussions about money, I could go on and on and on . . . this is not the same old double wide church trailer with different siding! It's a fresh benchmark. Dave is on the growing edge of the emerging church. And his philosophical assumptions are in the company of Leonard Sweet, Brian McLaren, and Stanley Grenz. However, his concrete approaches to methods of initiating real dynamic dialogue singles him out.
