Book excerpt: How to Work Together for the Sake of the Gospel Most churches in the U. S. have less than 75 members. Many of these congregations barely have enough money to pay their pastor’s salary, much less launch a movement or host a conference. How can they hope to make an impact beyond their own walls? In Churches Partnering Together, Chris Bruno and Matt Dirks show how all churches—big andsmall—can do more together than they can do apart. Looking to the New Testament for guidance, this practical book will help pastors, church leaders, and laypeople alike think creatively about gospel-driven church partnerships in their own communities and around the world.

Book excerpt: In a fast-paced world full of distractions, spiritual practice can help us become more centered-more in touch with ourselves and others, more in touch with the world around us, more in touch with God. Sacred Pauses is an introduction to this more centered way of life. The author, a pastor in British Columbia, begins with her own longing for personal renewal. What would it take to feel renewed every day? Instead of waiting for a vacation to smooth out the tensions of life, instead of waiting until the end of the week to shed our weariness, what if we could take time out every day? Live a renewed life every day? Be refreshed by God every day? Sacred Pauses offers simple ways for readers to do just that. Each chapter explores a different spiritual practice-from the classic disciplines of Scripture reading and prayer to other creative approaches such as paying attention, making music, and having fun. With plenty of stories from real life and ideas to try, this book is personal and practical. Its flexible format is appropriate for personal use or in a group, every day or any time.

Download or read book Cultural Competency written by Paul Nixon and published by Market Square Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Cultural Competency, Getting Back in the Game for Ministry with Your Neighbors, Paul Nixon explores how a church can regain a sense of cultural competency for ministering to the world around it. There are different strategies that impact how we do this - no single strategy is right for every church. But there are also baseline principles that are universally applicable. Paul Nixon looks first at a few baselines of culturally competent ministry, and then considers the varied strategies churches employ to get back in the game, in terms of effective ministry with their neighbors. These baselines include: The Christian Good News transcends culture Your church belongs to God, not to you The Good Ole Days are in front of us, not behind us Authenticity is essential No church can serve everybody Friendship first, then ministry development Spiritual readiness Social privilege often gets in our way Community partnerships are priceless Good listening may lead to Un-learning A lot of what we try will go about as well as a Wile E. Coyote scheme; God is alive and at work in every neighborhood. Our challenge is to show up to what God is doing; Regardless of strategy, spiritual collaboration with new people is essential! What Readers Are Saying: In a world of converging cultures, clashing ideologies and competing priorities, leadership in the church today can feel like trying to build on shifting sand. In Cultural Competency, Paul Nixon offers leaders Terra Firma. With a call to the timeless and timely work of partnering with God in every place and with every people, Cultural Competency lays the groundwork for the construction of God's preferred future for the church and the world. The Good Ole Days are ahead of us! C. Greg Moore Senior Pastor, Edenton Street UM Church, Raleigh NC Cultural Competency is filled with deep thoughts, spiritual grounding, and down to earth approaches to effective ministry. As a veteran church planter, I highly recommend this book to all Christian ministry leaders, especially those who seek to be relevant participants in the Spirit-led Gospel movement. Bener Agtarap Executive Director, Path 1 at Discipleship Ministries If your church finds itself at a ministry crossroad as it tries to be relevant in our rapidly changing world, this book is for you. Reading Cultural Competency is like sitting down with one of the best church consultants in North America to pick his brain about what your church should think about to thrive in the 21st century. Beth Ann Estock Co-author of Weird Church: Welcome to the 21st Century Cultural intelligence is a learned practice, one needed now more than ever. Understanding the social context of our ministries is imperative, making Paul Nixon's book a vital tool in this endeavor. Filled with relevant insights and engaging examples, his words are for anyone desiring to make an impact for Christ in their unique community. As we shift our hopeful hearts toward ministry in a post pandemic world, this book is a must-read. Ken Nash Lead Pastor, Watermark Wesleyan Church, Buffalo, NY Paul Nixon has the capacity help us see the church as though looking through a retro View-Master toy, enabling readers to take trips to places they have never been or to help us see something in a series of different angles or lights. He offers this very gift in Cultural Competency as he takes a complex subject and allows you to see it through thirteen different lenses or screens. Packed with practical tools for reflection and conversation, this book will be a gift to all congregations who are seeking new ways of loving their community and being church together.

Book Synopsis Choosing Partnership, Sharing Ministry by : Marcia Barnes Bailey
Download or read book Choosing Partnership, Sharing Ministry written by Marcia Barnes Bailey and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007-06-20 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many clergy, Marcia Barnes Bailey began her work as an ordained leader with a vision of the pastor as leader extraordinaire, empowered by education, authority, position, and resources. She soon found herself thinking: "There has to be another way." In this book, Bailey invites pastors and congregations to a new understanding of ministry, leadership, and the church that challenges hierarchy by fully sharing responsibilities, risks, and rewards in mutual ministry. This model took shape over 10 years as Bailey, pastoral colleague Marcus Pomeroy, and the congregation they served began writing their own definition of partnership--creating their own map, trusting their own instincts, making their own mistakes. For Bailey, this kind of partnership began when she discovered the courage to listen to herself and to the Spirit for the inklings of another way--to incarnate Jesus's example, a ministry that was widely inclusive, delegated power, shared authority, and thrived with the multiplication of gifts. Partnership invites us on a journey that can transform us as leaders, as human beings, and as the church. It is challenging and exciting, and it requires hard work. It is also energizing, engaging, and empowering. Partnership unleashes the Spirit to create a new vision and reality among us, moving us one step closer to living into God's reign.
