Pastor Mel's leadership has meant so much to me in my life. Mel has the unique ability to connect with new believers and individuals who are mature in their faith. Experience Jesus and His Churchdoes exactly that. This book offers so much wisdom to the body of Christ, and no matter what season of life you are in, it will greatly benefit you.

I always love it when someone truly champions the local church. I believe with all my heart that it is the hope this world needs--not just great church services but the bride of Christ--people who believe and know Jesus as their Savior and their hope, spreading that hope to a broken community. In this book I've found another champion--Mel Mullen--and I am thankful for his voice coming from such a deep well of experience. This is most definitely a book I hope every pastor will read and learn from.

I have known Pastor Mel for almost twenty years and I continue to see his passion to build the church and equip people. He lives daily the truths talked about in this book, and I am honored to know him and recommend this book to anyone who also wants to live purposefully and be part of building the church.

Donna Crouch, Community Engagement Pastor, Hillsong Church

A move of God is just that--it is sovereign, divine, and beyond our ability to manufacture. However, there are principles and values that He blesses and breathes on which we need to understand and pass on to this new generation. I believe this book will help you capture the heart, the why behind the what, the battles and lessons that have been won, and the values and passion that are now seeing the influence of Home Church reach nations.
