Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why Christianity is declining in America? Since the 1980's, many American congregations have been very focused on "doing church" better. A lot of effort and resources have been poured into worship and ministry programs, and they have significantly improved yet Christianity has been steadily declining. Could it be that "doing church better" is not the answer to stop the decline of Christianity in America? Could it be that we have paid too much attention to what's happening at church and not enough attention to what's happening at home? Do we care that many church goers are living, acting, dressing, behaving one way at church and a complete different way at home and as a result, children raised in those environments are later leaving the church at an all time high rate? In The Faith@Home Focused Church Pastor Holmen is going to challenge church leaders to consider three very important questions; Do we want the home to be the primary place where faith is lived and nurtured?

Discover what's truly happening in the homes of churchgoing parents based on Faith@Home Ministry's one-of-a-kind survey of over 1,600 parents across 12 denominations. The Faith@Home movement aims to help people go from being one hour per week consumers of church to 24/7 followers of Christ.

Drawing on the results of their own FaithLIFE survey as well as numerous other studies, they reveal some important trends and takeaways that ministry leaders can use to give the parents in their congregations help where they need it most.

Download or read book Churches That Make a Difference written by Ronald J. Sider and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2002-04-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Churches over the past generations have been weakened by a failure to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of their communities. Many have adopted a narrow vision, focusing on only one aspect of ministry. But in today's environment of faith-based opportunities many Christians are eager to start reaching out to their world with both Good News and good works, and therefore they are searching for appropriate ways to integrate both into their ministry. In Churches That Make a Difference, best-selling author Ron Sider and his coauthors give those involved in community outreach a comprehensive resource for developing holistic ministry--a balance of evangelism and social outreach. Illustrations and helpful organizational tips detail the how-to's of an effective holistic ministry. Case studies that show how different churches across the United States reach out to their communities provide a variety of ideas and practical applications. User-friendly tools are included as well for congregational studies, surveys, evaluations, and community assessments. The authors draw on extensive experience with church ministries and faith-based organizations as they share the life-changing vision and biblical mandate for living the whole gospel. Church leaders will be encouraged in their process of developing and maintaining a holistic ministry, and local churches will rediscover a passion for loving the whole person the way Jesus did.

Book Synopsis A God-Centered Church by : Henry T. Blackaby
Download or read book A God-Centered Church written by Henry T. Blackaby and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An award-winning book from a multimillion selling author, now available in paperback for the first time! Henry Blackaby says, “As important as Experiencing God has been to many people, A God Centered Church is a necessary sequel. Christians must make the transition from knowing and doing the will of God as individuals to knowing and doing the will of God within a corporate body of believers.” Indeed, there is a corporate nature to salvation. God saves individuals but places them in community with one another—a community of believers. God is creating for Himself a people through whom He can accomplish His purposes in our world. Experiencing God Together helps churches experience the fullness of life as a congregation, a manifest presence of God in their midst, and a love that could only come from above.

Learn how to grow your church and discover the commitments that denominational leaders must make to guarantee the fruitfulness of local congregations.
Download or read book Comeback Churches written by Ed Stetzer and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research shows that over time, most churches plateau and then eventually decline. Typically, they start strong and experience periods of growth, then stagnate and lose members. Since 1991, the North American population has increased by 15 percent while the number of "unchurched" people has increased by 92 percent. Large church houses that were filled in the 1950s and `60s now hold a fraction of their capacity. To counter this trend, authors Ed Stetzer and Mike Dodson surveyed 300 churches from across ten different denominations that recently achieved healthy evangelistic growth after a significant season of decline. What they have discovered is an exciting method of congregation reinvigoration that is shared in the new book entitled Comeback Churches. Endorsements “As a successful pastor, church planter, researcher, and advisor to thousands of churches, Ed Stetzer speaks from a wealth of experience with all kinds of churches. Now, in one volume, your church can benefit from his wisdom. This book is a winner!” —Dr. Rick Warren, author of The Purpose-Driven Life and The Purpose-Driven Church “First and foremost, it is biblical. Second, it is well researched. And third, it is immensely practical and applicable . . . this book should be in the hands of hundreds of thousands of pastors, staff, and church leaders. Simply stated, it is just that good.” —Thom S. Rainer, author of Simple Church, president/CEO of LifeWay Christian Resources “Finally, a book of practical advice that is based on research. I have seen it both ways— endless research with little advice, or, much advice with little facts. This book strikes the balance with perfection.” —Elmer Towns, Dean of Liberty University “This is the most helpful, practical book on church revitalization I’ve read this century.” —Leonard Sweet, Drew Theological School, George Fox University “Comeback Churches is more than a pep talk. It’s rooted in the ‘right stuff’ to bring a congregation out of the dismal into the vital.” —Jack W. Hayford, President, International Foursquare Churches, Chancellor, The King’s College and Seminary “No one, to my knowledge, has done the hard research, presented the facts, and offered such sound advice as Ed Stetzer and Mike Dodson… Comeback Churches is the number-one book on turning around declining and plateauing church ministry. —Gary L. McIntosh, D.Min., Ph.D., Biola University “A refreshing book by authors who know how to make research exciting and instructional. Leaders and members of non-growing evangelical churches should read this book (it wouldn't hurt mainliners either)!” —Bill Easum, Easum, Bandy & Associates
