About this title

Review:

Tom's broad life-experiences, coupled with his service to the Church have given him a unique perspective and understanding. This is a courageous and honest assessment of the Church in a Biblical, historical and eternal context. I believe those who venture into these pages will see the Church from a more vibrant perspective - as profoundly powerful and vastly underestimated. These are strategic days in the history of the church and we should do all we can to position her to fulfil her call and awaken the beauty within.
Brian Houston, Senior Pastor, Hillsong Church --Brian Houston

Tom Rawls' passion for the local church and all that it can accomplish is inspiring. This is a good book for anyone who needs reminding of the beauty, power and true mission of God's church.
Craig Groeschel -- Senior Pastor of LifeChurch.tv Author of The Christian Atheist --Craig Groeschel

In Relentless, Tom Rawls gives us a compelling vision of the majestic force Christ's church might become, if she is willing to re-align herself with the revolutionary principles of the New Testament. He artfully and honestly combines his firsthand experience of re-firing the heart of an urban church, with sound biblical ecclesiology. His call for leadership over management and spiritual potency over fatalistic defeatism, must not fall on deaf ears if the
Western church is to once more become Christ's `city on a hill'.

Inspiring, energetic, charismatic, visionary, pioneer, man of faith. These are some of the things that come to mind when I think of Tom Rawls. I have known Tom for many years and he has always been an inspiration to me. I have seen him succeed in many areas of ministry. He has overcome difficulties and challenges and leads people into break through and blessing where ever he goes. Tom Rawls is a man of outstanding ability and his book carries the spirit of faith that marks him as one of Gods leaders of influence.

In John chapter one, the Bible says that the Word became flesh and dwelt amongst us. This is a book about just that - the Word infesting a man who has become relentless in his pursuit of changing the world for Christ. 'Relentless' has always been the tattoo etched into the heart of Tom Rawls. In the Eighties he broke tradition and touched a youth culture for Jesus, in the Nineties he touched the world's underclass, and this century he is touching the Western world for Jesus. He has never relinquished, never quit, never backed down and never stopped. This book is infectious. You may become what you read.

From the Author:

It has been a joy and a life long dream to have a book of this nature published - my desire is for it to be in the hands of every pastor, leader and church builder. May it provide inspiration and encouragement to those who are working with Jesus in the most inspiring of all labours - building the CHURCH - local and global.
