Build your people not your church

Preaching doesn't grow a church, leadership does! You can't buy leaders, you must build them. This book is not about information systems or leadership tips and tricks, but about changing your mindset. It will give you a vision for building and developing the people you already have—and help you avoid simply wishing and daydreaming about those you don't.

Ali is the first child of immigrants from Iran. He is Silicon Valley born and raised and naturally became a software engineer like many in the valley. After receiving Christ at age 24, he immediately had a heart for the lost and is deeply passionate for the people of Silicon Valley to experience new life through a relationship with Jesus! This passion led Ali, along with his wife, to start a life-giving church in 2017 in Silicon Valley called CenterSet. Ali has been married to his wife, Yasmin, for 6 years. She is a wedding and lifestyle photographer and a former TV evangelist to Iran. They have two children, Sophia and Zoey Roohi.
