Fred's experience, expertise and love for the Lord provide a much-needed approach to honouring God with church property. Our church leadership team used 'Making Property Serve Mission' to help us think missionally and practically about our church-building expansion project. Fred's book challenged us to think deeply and widely about how the blessing of church property can be navigated and developed for the glory of God. I highly recommend this book to any church leader considering facility alterations or new builds of any scale.
