Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one likes to eat alone; to approach a table filled with people, only to be told that despite the open chairs there isn't room for you. The rejection stings. It leaves a mark. Yet this is exactly what the church has been saying to far too many people for far too long: “You're not welcome here. Find someplace else to sit.â€ How can we extend unconditional welcome and acceptance in a world increasingly marked by bigotry, fear, and exclusion? Pastor John Pavlovitz invites readers to join him on the journey to findâ€"or buildâ€"a church that is big enough for everyone. He speaks clearly into the heart of the issues the Christian community has been earnestly wrestling with: LGBT inclusion, gender equality, racial tensions, and global concerns. A Bigger Table: Building Messy, Authentic, Hopeful Spiritual Community asks if organized Christianity can find a new way of faithfully continuing the work Jesus began two thousand years ago, where everyone gets a seat. Pavlovitz shares moving personal stories and his careful observations as a pastor to set the table for a new, more loving conversation on these and other important matters of faith. He invites us to build the bigger table Jesus imagined, practicing radical hospitality, total authenticity, messy diversity, and agenda-free community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jake Colsen, an overworked and disillusioned pastor, happens into a stranger who bears an uncanny resemblance (in manner) to the apostle John. A number of encounters with John as well as a family crisis lead Jake to a new understanding of what his life should be like: one filled with faith bolstered by a steady, close relationship with the God of the universe. Facing his own disappointment with Christianity, Jake must forsake the habits that have made his faith rote and rediscover the love that captured his heart when he first believed. Compelling and intensely personal, So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anything relates a man's rebirth from performance-based Christianity to a loving friendship with Christ that affects all he does, thinks, and says. As John tells Jake, "There is nothing the Father desires for you more than that you fall squarely in the lap of his love and never move from that place for the rest of your life."

Book excerpt: Over the past few years, John Pavlovitz's blog, Stuff That Needs To Be Said, has become a virtual hub for millions of people from all over the world, drawn there by his clear, compelling words on compassion, equity, love, and justice. This expansive, like-hearted community transcends race, orientation, gender, religious tradition, political affiliation, and nation of origin--and finds its affinity in the deeper place of our shared humanity, which is the True North of his writing. This collection lovingly pulls together some of John's most widely-read and most beloved essays on faith, politics, grief, and the elemental parts of being human. It is an encouraging, inspiring, challenging storehouse of "stuff that needs to be said."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it like to live in a society where there is no active witness to the Gospel? In predominately Muslim countries, even the introduction of Jesus into a community can be dangerous. However, the Lord is bringing fruitful workers to begin discipling seekers. While fruit can be slow to produce and start as ones and twos, entire Muslim families and networks of families can eventually follow Jesus. The first part of Where There Was No Church brings together stories that show what God is doing through his people among Muslims. The stories are engaging and bring to life fruitful practices and practical insights about reaching our Muslim neighbors. The second part of the book contains discussion questions to guide leaders in discussions about the narratives. If you work in the Muslim world or are interested in doing so in the future, you will find this to be an excellent resource. The principles illustrated through the stories will also be of value to anyone living among peoples where there is no church. The stories can be heart-wrenching at times, but they also illustrate how prayer and faith can triumph in difficult circumstances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As many--young people especially--leave the traditional church in droves, they often still long for a genuine Christian community in which to practice their faith and share their spiritual journeys with others. They want to be faithful but struggle to find a place where they flourish. Whether they've already left the church behind or are merely considering it, readers will find here both heartfelt encouragement and practical steps for finding or creating a community of faith that honors God and offers rest, love, and communion with other believers. Author Kelly Bean broadens our definition of church to include many alternative forms of Christian community. With true stories of those who have given up on church and what they're doing now, this book is also helpful for pastors and churchgoers to help them understand why people leave the church--and what might be done to help them stay.

Book excerpt: This study contributes to the revival of a more full-blooded Marian teaching and attempts to take the path set by ressourcement theology in recovering the robust voice of witness to Mary. Aidan Nichols, OP, works through the biblical, patristic, and medieval sources and introduces readers to the robust scriptural and theological bases for the Churchs celebration of Mary. He argues for the crucial relevance of Mary in the theological articulation of the gospel, the celebration and practice of the liturgy, and the sacramental life of the Church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be a Christian? The gospel of Jesus Christ is the best news in history, but we often live as though it has minimal impact on our lives. Being a Christian isn’t just about Sunday mornings, small groups, and studying the Bible. The good news is that Jesus redeems everything. In the Bible, we read story after story of people meeting God and walking away completely changed. The same is true for Christians today. Being a Christian, by Dr. Jason Allen, shows how Jesus redeems all of life. Useful for new and mature believers, small group and personal study, Being a Christian walks readers through the gospel’s impact on all facets of life, from your relationships to your resources, from your work to your rest, from your past to your future.

Book excerpt: This book is written for the purpose of being a road map for someone wanting to understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Charts as visual aids, are entitled: “The Church of Jesus Christ Illustrated”, for the purpose of letting the reader see exactly what the “Gospel of Jesus Christ” is, and not just getting a little here and a little there, but being able to see the whole picture of what Christ is about. The book is written in a systematic approach, beginning with, “who God is”, “who are we?”, “where did we come from?”, “why are we here?”, “is there life after this?”, and “how do we fit into the scheme of things?” These are all basic questions that have often crossed people's minds, and now you do not need to wonder anymore. This book is here to answer fundamental questions, and look into some of the mysteries about God. The scriptures are explained to the point, that when the reader starts to grasp what is contained herein, will look up at the ceiling, and say WOW. It all has been right in front of me the whole time, and I could not understand it. Too many people depend on a minister, preacher, prophet, pope, bishop, doctor of divinity, pastor and other leaders, who supposedly go to college and get a degree in religion, but yet when they teach, they are those who “are ever learning and never able to come to a knowledge of the truth”. This book is designed to help the reader understand that the title of it, “TWO CHURCHES ONLY”, means just that. It shows everything is in one system or the other, even the Christian Churches. It talks about God, government, those who are in government, agencies, churches etc., and shows how everything is all tied together. The main purpose of this book is to show the reader what Slavery, and Freedom look like. Once a reader finishes this book, the reader will have great knowledge, and will never be the same again. They will begin to look at life much differently. To read the book, and understand the pearls contained therein, will take the Spirit of the Holy Ghost, bearing witness that it is true. The author is only a man who loves God first, and then loves his brother/sister second. He has no glamorous titles, nor college degrees, but he is just another everyday person who works for a living to feed his family. The difference is that the author has fought “the good fight”. And because of this, God has granted him knowledge, and allows him to see, because he exercises his faith in God. The information contained in this book are things the reader will not learn in church, especially those 501(c)(3) charter churches. They would much rather be politically correct, charismatic, and avoid being controversial, as if they are ashamed to learn the truth. Anyway, the reader needs to be the judge, may God bless you who are proclaimed Christian, and may he also bless you who are not, that you will have a burning desire to take upon yourself the Name of Jesus Christ, and receive his gospel.
