Book Synopsis The Starfish and the Spirit by : Lance Ford
Download or read book The Starfish and the Spirit written by Lance Ford and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine an organizational model for church leadership that enables the entire team to unleash their full potential. The joy and vigor coming from a collective strength, intelligence, and skill in the community of leaders not only brings greater potency but better yields for your ministry. What would it be like to see this kind of healthy leadership reproduced into the second, third, and fourth generation, on multiple strands? Leveraging the metaphor Ori Brafman popularized in his NYT best-selling book, The Starfish and the Spider, Rob Wegner, Lance Ford, and Alan Hirsch show: How to take a close look at your church's organizational structure and how to adapt instead of simply adopt a certain kind of structural approach. How churches can function without a rigid central authority, making them nimbler in reacting to external forces. How seeding starfish networks inside today's churches will prepare the church of tomorrow to be agile while maintaining the accountability to be effective. The Starfish and the Spirit is about creating a culture where church leaders view themselves as curators of a community on a mission, not the source of certainty for every question and project. It's about creating a team of humble leaders "in the middle" of the church, not at the top--leaders who naturally reproduce multiple generations of leaders, from the middle out.

Download or read book The DNA of a Man written by Matt Hallock and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is speaking to you today: "You have not failed. You have not missed the boat. You are exactly the right man to lead your wife, your kids, and yourself into the powerful Kingdom life that you were made for. So stick with me. I will show you that you do have what it takes."Do you feel like you've lost your way and can't figure out how to get a grasp on your confidence? Do you feel like a fearful, bland husband, trying simply to appease your wife rather than lead and love and protect her? Do you feel like, rather than abundant and victorious, your life in God is stagnant and defeated?This, then, is your opportunity to rouse yourself from the commonly taught weak, nice, passive, and self-pitiful form of "manhood" that has been keeping you stuck, disrupting your marriage, and leaving you bitter. It is possible for you to walk in true Godly manhood as a confident, gritty, unshakeable, irresistible Man of the Kingdom.It's time to come back to how you were meant to be: fully alive in your walk with God and unleashed in your own masculinity. Become a Kingdom man who runs hard after Jesus, who sees God do miracles in everyday life, who takes full ownership of your life while at the same time depending on Jesus for absolutely everything.From this place, you can truly begin to rebuild the places in your life that have lain broken for too long: your finances, your parenting, your marriage, your emotions. Come. Arise and build.
Book Synopsis Understanding Christian Mission by : Scott W. Sunquist
Download or read book Understanding Christian Mission written by Scott W. Sunquist and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2013-09-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive introduction helps students, pastors, and mission committees understand contemporary Christian mission historically, biblically, and theologically. Scott Sunquist, a respected scholar and teacher of world Christianity, recovers missiological thinking from the early church for the twenty-first century. He traces the mission of the church throughout history in order to address the global church and offers a constructive theology and practice for missionary work today. Sunquist views spirituality as the foundation for all mission involvement, for mission practice springs from spiritual formation. He highlights the Holy Spirit in the work of mission and emphasizes its trinitarian nature. Sunquist explores mission from a primarily theological--rather than sociological--perspective, showing that the whole of Christian theology depends on and feeds into mission. Throughout the book, he presents Christian mission as our participation in the suffering and glory of Jesus Christ for the redemption of the nations.

Book Synopsis Spirituality in Mission by : John Amalraj
Download or read book Spirituality in Mission written by John Amalraj and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authors from eighteen countries give us their perspectives on biblical principles and cultural expressions of spirituality particularly as the church engages in God’s mission. The anthology of texts enriches our understanding of the depth and the meaning of being spiritual and the diversity of forms to live out the Christian faith. The issue today is how spirituality should direct and guide a daily life as followers of Jesus in the engagement in the mission of God. No doubt that it has to do with our inner life and our relationship to God, but it is in showing our love and concern to others that we prove our love to God, according to the Apostle John (1 John 4). Mission without spirituality will only be a human effort to convince people of religious theories. Spirituality without a missionary involvement of the church will not express God’s desire that the transforming gospel reaches every person. This book will help you rethink your understanding of what is spiritual, revisit your own spiritual journey, and appreciate the different forms of spirituality as they are described and performed around the globe.

Book Synopsis Missional Church by : Daniel L. Guder
Download or read book Missional Church written by Daniel L. Guder and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1998-02-09 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would a theology of the Church look like that took seriously the fact that North America is now itself a mission field? This question lies at the foundation of this volume written by an ecumenical team of six noted missiologists—Lois Barrett, Inagrace T. Dietterich, Darrell L. Guder, George R. Hunsberger, Alan J. Roxburgh, and Craig Van Gelder. The result of a three-year research project undertaken by The Gospel and Our Culture Network, this book issues a firm challenge for the church to recover its missional call right here in North America, while also offering the tools to help it do so. The authors examine North America’s secular culture and the church’s loss of dominance in today’s society. They then present a biblically based theology that takes seriously the church’s missional vocation and draw out the consequences of this theology for the structure and institutions of the church.
