Rooting for Rivals

How Collaboration and Generosity Increase the Impact of Leaders, Charities, and Churches

By: Peter Greer, Chris Horst, Jill Heisey, David Cochran Heath

Narrated by: David Cochran Heath

Reject pride of ownership in pursuit of a higher mission.

Christian organizations have come to be known mostly for what we're against. And all too often, that includes being against each other. But amid growing distrust of religious institutions, Christ-centered nonprofits have a unique opportunity to link arms and collectively pursue a calling higher than any one organization's agenda.

Rooting for Rivals reveals how your ministry can multiply its impact by cooperating rather than competing with others, modeling Christlike love and generosity in the process. Peter Greer and Chris Horst explore case studies illustrating the power of collaborative ministry. Writing with vulnerability, they also share their own failures and successes in moving toward a kingdom mindset.

In Rooting for Rivals, you'll discover the key to revitalizing your ministry and making an enduring difference in the world.

Life Changing

Wow! This is an amazing book. I work with so many nonprofits and I plan on giving this book to them. What was most amazing is that it also helped me on a personal level to see my own gluttony and greed. Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!

Superb work on the importance of collaboration!

Absolutely phenomenal, a must read for any organization that truly desires to move from good, to better, to best. Founded in humility, the authors do a fantastic job demonstrating that true success only occurs through collaboration!

The Power of Oneness

This is a true framework for how the Body of Christ can truly make a significant Kingdom Building impact when we lay aside our own agendas and recognize we are on the same team where Jesus Christ is the head. I love it!!!

The Rest of the Story! Why we exist.

A call to be an insurgent for the Kingdom. Let's roll into our calling today.
