When new people visit your church, it's a big deal. When they come back, it's an even bigger deal. Author and Pastor Mark Waltz has written a follow up book to his popular book, "First Impressions". His new book, "Lasting Impressions", explains how to create a Church culture of belonging.

"Lasting Impressions" provides a vision and a blueprint for helping people move from simply visiting a church, to belonging to a church. Or as Waltz puts it, "We want to see people hang around the church long enough to experience how much they matter to God."

We want to see people hang around the church long enough to experience how much they matter to God.
