God’s Greenhouse: How to Grow People God’s Way
By Tom Swartzwelder
In a time when churches are faltering, failing and closing their 
doors, God’s Greenhouse takes us back to the basics– growing believers who then grow the church.
Author Tom Swartzwelder draws on over thirty years of pastoral experience as he outlines a plan to lead churches to embrace their calling and their Great Commission mandate to reach the lost.
God’s Greenhouse provides a framework that any pastor or leader can adapt to get their church grounded on fundamentals and working together to accomplish their God-given charge to carry out the gospel.
Tom Swartzwelder was born again at the age of nine in an old-fashioned revival meeting. Tom received his B.A. from Tennessee Temple University and his M. Div. from Luther Rice Seminary. He has pastored for nearly forty years in both bi-vocational and full-time roles. He provides practical how-to-do-ministry resources for the disciples of Jesus Christ at www.godsgreenhouse.net.
He and his wife enjoy four beautiful grandchildren!
I have so often been disappointed by the church I attend. Too many times I have felt that the church does not realize that the people our the fruits of God’s Garden – not the church.
