Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why are more churches not engaged in practical, substantial ways of taking the gospel to the nations?" When Missions Shape the Mission unpacks a statistical study of traditionally evangelical churches that reveals their anemic level of commitment to the biblical mandate of making Christ known around the world. Veteran pastor David Horner makes the data easy to understand, challenging other pastors to radically assign their best leadership and resources to missions as he looks at where the church is today, how it got there, and where we must go from here: "Let's dream a godly dream. What if you committed to step up and lead your church in the pursuit of becoming a mission-focused church? Then, what if you invited ten of your pastor friends to join you in the effort—and each of them did the same? What would happen to the available missions force beginning right here in the West?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, people are on the move. These diaspora people do life in two places: the country they presently reside and their homeland. Unfortunately, Christians often do life without ever knowing who these dispersed people. This book goes in detail discussing five disciplines Christians should develop in order to effectively reach the nations and more specifically diaspora people near their locale. Testimonials ... "Bryan Galloway is deeply practical, and wonderfully brilliant. He understands the basics of cultural interaction like few do. At the same time, he cares deeply for the least reached peoples of the world, and carries that compassion to the significant diaspora population of North America who need to experience God's love." --- Linda Bergquist, Church Planting Catalyst, North American Mission Board "Here is an excellent, yet brief, book to assist in reaching the peoples among us. Galloway has done a wonderful job helping us understand the movement of the nations from God's perspective and our necessary response. This highly practical guide sets forth disciplines that are easily applied in our contexts." --- JD Payne, pastor, missiologist, author Strangers Next Door: Immigration, Migration, and Mission "Bryan and I have rubbed shoulders numerous times over the last several years. I can attest from personal observation: he practices in everyday life what he teaches in this helpful book! You have to admire the simplicity and usefulness of the 5-W's and 5-F's. While helpful for the solo reader, this book would be even more valuable for small groups to study, ponder, and put into practice." --- Larry Stuckey, Coordinator of Diaspora Initiatives, WorldVenture "Reaching The Nations is a Biblically-based missional handbook that begins with the heart of Jesus as recorded in Scripture and results in concrete steps for reaching the diaspora living among us. The reader will find this book inspiring, challenging, practical and timely. Bryan Galloway brings together the disciplines of missiology and cultural anthropology along with decades of personal experience. Bryan has lived the lifestyle that he advocates in his book. Get ready to embark on a journey to change the world from your own neighborhood while answering life's greatest calling - to make disciples of all peoples!" --- Mark Weible, Director of Church Planting, Greater Orlando Baptist Association "Wow! This book is so practical. Bryan Galloway's expertise, experience and heart for introducing Jesus to all resident people groups in North America is evident throughout the presentation. It is worthy of a second read in order to select suggestions relative to the reader's sphere of influence. The material is biblically based and highly motivational. Bryan was truly led by the Holy Spirit in developing this tool for advancing the Kingdom among the unreached." --- Jerry Falley, New American Research Specialist, www.yourneighbor.us

Book excerpt: Move over Boomers, Xers, and Millennials; there's a new generation--making up more than 25 percent of the US population--that represents a seismic cultural shift. Born approximately between 1993 and 2012, Generation Z is the first truly post-Christian generation, and they are poised to challenge every church to rethink its role in light of a rapidly changing culture. From the award-winning author of The Rise of the Nones comes this enlightening introduction to the youngest generation. James Emery White explains who this generation is, how it came to be, and the impact it is likely to have on the nation and the faith. Then he reintroduces us to the ancient countercultural model of the early church, arguing that this is the model Christian leaders must adopt and adapt if we are to reach members of Generation Z with the gospel. He helps readers rethink evangelistic and apologetic methods, cultivate a culture of invitation, and communicate with this connected generation where they are. Pastors, ministry leaders, youth workers, and parents will find this an essential and hopeful resource.

Download or read book Preaching to a Postmodern World written by Graham M. Johnston and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While growing churches dot our urban centers and country landscapes, church-goers and students today are actually less likely to maintain a Christian worldview than in the past. In fact, the majority of society does not even believe in objective truth. A minister out of touch with this culture is like an uninformed missionary trying to teach in a foreign country. To communicate God's Word effectively in the twenty-first century, teachers need to know how to connect with and confront an audience of postmodern listeners. In Preaching to a Postmodern World, Johnston shows pastors, seminary students, professors, lay teachers, and church leaders can reach the present age without selling out to it. The book discusses how to: • distinguish between modernism and postmodernism • understand postmodern worldviews • change the style of preaching without compromising the substance • take advantage of new opportunities provided by the cultural shift • show an inattentive society the relevance of God's truth The author's keen insights into contemporary pop and media culture also help equip speakers to address today's listeners with clarity and relevance.

Download or read book Let the Nations be Glad written by John Piper and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Book excerpt: Spent Matches explores the possibility that a few small paradigm shifts within the church might make the difference between extinction and effectiveness. In fact, taking a clue from the automobile industry, the church might be able to not only halt the rapid decay in attendance but also become an effective tool in achieving Jesus' final command. For instance, the Hybrid car has become the answer to Detroit's environmental and oil crisis issues. Finding the synergy between two technologies, gas and electric has created a new day for the auto industry. Likewise, Spent Matchesexplores how the church can find synergy between two seemingly competing thoughts: an invitation to come and a command to go. The Hybrid metaphor brings energy to the church's mission and an explanation to the age-old argument of Missional versus Attractional methods. Features include: Innovative ideas for growing the church Methods to reach those who may never have attended church Scripture passages that touch on the subject of church growth

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radical Evangelism and is a response to the call of God on my life to teach this concept to His people. My only hope is to enlist every Christian into the army of the Lord and for them to get started building the kingdom of God. This book was written and designed to light a fire under the religious church! The main idea is to change the ordinary mundane life of a traditional Christian. Living an ordinary life and then you die! Jesus said " I come that you might have life, and that you might have it more abundantly!" There is no more abundant life than leading someone to Christ and receiving a blessing for being willing to do it.

Book excerpt: Reaching the World in Our Own Backyard is designed as a guidebook for Christians to better understand and engage people from other countries including immigrants, foreign exchange students, and tourists.

Pillai explains cultural considerations and common points of reference to readers eager to share the good news of Jesus Christ with foreign-born individuals. Between 1990 and 2000, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism–along with many other religions–grew at a record pace, due heavily to immigration and conversion. During this same period of time the number of people who call themselves Christians dropped by 9 percent. Meanwhile, 98 percent of churches experienced non-growth or declines in attendance.

Book excerpt: What If You Could Change the World without Changing Your Daily Routine? When you’ve been transformed by God’s love, you can’t help but want others to experience the same grace and freedom. But how do you share it without scaring them away or offending them? For most Christians, “evangelism” is an intimidating word that suggests handing out tracts to strangers or doing other awkward things. But what if there was a more organic, more authentic way to share your faith with your friends, neighbors, and coworkers? Dave and Jon Ferguson have found five simple, straightforward practices that will allow any believer to do just that. And by consistently living them out, you can affect not just individual lives but your entire neighborhood and community—one person at a time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Church is irrelevant to my day-to-day life! It's just a dead, empty tradition of the past." This is the overwhelming consensus among young people today, and it has resulted in an ever-widening cultural divide between the secular youth culture and the Church. Much of what was formerly regarded as the Christian world is leaving its roots behind and is dominated by secularism and relativism. The Bible is no longer considered the moral compass, but rather everyone is free to decide for themselves what is right and wrong. As followers of Jesus, it's clear that we need to respond to this - but how? Jesus in the Secular World combines vivid illustrations from over a decade of front-line ministry with practical principles that will encourage and equip any follower of Jesus to relevantly reach those who would not come to the Church for answers.

Book excerpt: Christianity is declining in the West. Churches in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe are closing their doors at an accelerating rate. How will the church respond? In this short but sweeping manifesto, New York Times bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller argues that this decline should prompt us to rethink evangelism from the ground up. Using the early church as our guide, churches and individual Christians must examine ourselves, our culture, and Scripture to work toward a new missionary encounter with Western culture that will make the gospel both attractive and credible to a new generation.
