Summary: Not that good
Comment: Don't read this book if you are not already familiar with the apostolic movement, especially as is taught by Wagner and many of his other "networked" associates. To understand this book probably to it's fullest level, you will have to read some of Wagners main works concerning his view of how the church should function.
Wagner attempts in this book, to show how other church models of government and organization, have failed. But that there is a model that we have not considered, however, Wagner fails to clearly develope what a proper model will be. You cannot help by reading this book, that Wagner is doing nothing more than theorizing what things should look like.
Also, Wagner's models for how the church should function successfully, seems to basically be based on how large a congregation grows, and how long it keeps those numbers.
Decrease in numbers, according to Wagner, would simply show that the model is flawed, and not biblical. However, this is the flaw of his model, and how they should work, which seems to be based partially/largely upon the number of members one has.
By the way, does this review sound somewhat confusing? Well, that's because it's hard to respond well to a book that itself, is poorly written. Transitions in thought are poor, and the book is slow and developes poorly. Yet, this is not by any means a thick book.
You can easily read it within 2 sittings, but this should warn you that if I'm complaining over just a few pages, that it is simply just a poorly written book. Wagner should have simply bundled this book with one of his 40 other books.

Summary: Apostles of the City
Comment: Wagner brings excellent application of the ministry of Apostles as it relates to transformation of cities and regions. An excellent analysis of the flawed models and failures to transform cities is detailed as well as a glimpse at recent contributions and movements that have brought the Church to where she is today. Positive steps to release Apostles and Apostolic vision for city transformation are set forth. This book is a must read for those growing in their understanding of how the emerging Apostolic Church will bring together the various expressions of the Kingdom of God for a powerful end times revival.
