Publisher's Summary

Designed for More calls every Christian to consider how, through collective movement, they can bring about Christ's daring vision for unity in the church to impact the world like never before.

Our world is divided and fragmented. Even among followers of Christ, God's great story of reconciliation has been crippled because the messengers of that story are unreconciled. But God designed us for so much more. Thankfully, he has hidden incredible lessons in nature to help solve complex human problems.

Designed for More draws groundbreaking implications for how to achieve unity and collective movement through new research on a jaw-dropping phenomenon of flocking starlings known as a murmuration. This marvel is one of nature's most spectacular sights: Imagine hundreds of thousands of birds in motion, caressing the sky like a brush on canvas. It is a beautiful madness that is completely ordered.

Join authors Lucas Ramirez and Mike DeVito as they unveil the power of the murmuration principles in order to inspire unity in individuals and the church as a whole. Birds first taught us to fly, and now they will teach us to unify!

What the critics say

"The world is waiting for the church to come together and be the interconnected movement that best offers God's love and grace to all. Designed for More offers you and I what we need: a compelling vision for why unity matters and practical steps for us to move forward." (Kara Powell, PhD, Executive Director of the Fuller Youth Institute and co-author of Growing Young)

"A lot of us talk about the importance of unity, but few of us are given a practical guidebook of how to work towards unity. Lucas and Mike help expand the view of our flock, with the urgency unity requires. This message is not about compromising, this is about working past our fragmented and fractured 'playgrounds' for the unity God demands and desires for each of us." (Esther Fleece, speaker and author of No More Faking Fine)

"As long as followers of Christ stay in their comfortable silos and tribes, the world will never experience the full power of the Church. Designed for More gives us a beautifully memorable and practical way forward to become the united body of Christ. Don't miss this book." (Mark Batterson, The New York Times best-selling author of The Circle Maker and Lead Pastor of National Community Church)
