What world missions ministry would arise if you only had the Bible? Answer: It would start and end with the local church. A focus on the local church is biblical, practical, and effective. It aligns with the New Testament. Local churches everywhere display God's wisdom and the glory of Christ in the gospel. You’ll see it from the view of Christ, the Great Commission, first-century Christians, Paul, and the New Testament canon itself. Once you see it, you can’t un-see it! This book walks through these steps: A.

Jesus commands his disciples to love one another and promises that “by this everyone will know that you are my disciples” (John 13:35). But what does genuine care for those in our church family look like? This warm, practical book by Dwayne Bond goes beyond specific pastoral-care roles and responsibilities and explores how all church members can love and care for one another in the rhythms of ordinary life.

¿Cómo se diferencia de otras iglesias? El autor Mark Dever busca ayudar a los creyentes a reconocer las características clave de una iglesia sana: predicación expositiva, teología bíblica y un entendimiento correcto del evangelio. El escritor sigue el ejemplo de los autores del Nuevo Testamento dirigiéndose a todos los miembros de las iglesias, tanto pastores como a los miembros de la congregación, retándolos a hacer su parte en mantener la salud de la iglesia local.

Evangelism and missions are parts of the Christian life often accompanied by fears, insecurities, and cultural pressures. In this addition to the Union series, Daniel Hames and Michael Reeves argue that an individual's relationship with God influences their evangelism and missions more than anything else. Scripture clearly shows that a believer's responsibility is to make God known in the world, but this cannot be done without first knowing and enjoying God.

The third in Joe Thorn's series on the confession, nature, and expression of the Church, The Life of the Church explores what the church does because of who it is. Useful for training in membership class, discipleship groups, and elder boards, The Life of the Church is at once theological, practical, and experiential. Listeners will not simply be informed, but led to a deeper conviction about their role in the body of Christ.

What is the way forward for the church? Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches―from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches. Respected author and theologian Scot McKnight and former Willow Creek member Laura Barringer wrote this book to paint a pathway forward for the church.

Many of us experience loneliness and isolation, even in our church communities. Churches often emphasize increasing knowledge rather than encouraging believers to foster deep, authentic connections that reflect the heart of God. We sometimes forget that both are important if we want to experience vibrant spiritual growth. In The Power of Together, Jim Putman invites you to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships within your church community and to move beyond superficial interactions to form genuine bonds.

In a world where the church's relevance is often questioned, Angie Ward offers a compelling blueprint for a unified ecclesial future in Beyond Church and Parachurch. Beyond Church and Parachurch is not just a historical and theological exploration; it's a roadmap for rethinking the very essence of Christian ministry.

Contending but Not Contentious is one young pastor’s perspective on when and how to fight. We do not merely fight against, but for, and this inheritance we have received from the previous generation is worthy of protecting.

The Hybrid Congregation explores how technology has become an integral part of our daily lives and how it is impacting religious practices in unexpected ways. With the rise of online platforms, including social media and video conferencing tools, the concept of a physical church space is being redefined. The virtual world is now an extension of our physical reality, blurring the lines between what is considered "real" and what is not.

The feast of Epiphany and its following season are not as well observed as they should be. Many of us associate Epiphany with the visit of the Magi but don't know much more about it. In this short volume, priest and theologian Fleming Rutledge expounds the primary biblical texts and narrative arc of the season, inviting us to discover anew "the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."

Deacon Phoenix of the Clergy brings brilliant theological clarity to true diaconal ministry by engaging the listener with an intense look into its history. The prescription for success is simply defined and canonically faithful. This is a must-listen for deacons, the laity, and the church hierarchy—for all who appreciate that church must change.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, Christians in Africa numbered approximately nine million—by the end, that number had grown to more than 380 million. As the number of Christians continues to grow, African pastors are often overwhelmed and in desperate need of guidance. Drawing from 3 decades of pastoral experience in Zambia, Conrad Mbewe has written a comprehensive handbook specifically for African pastors and church leaders.

In his new book, Apostolic Technologies, David Stafford delves into the genetic makeup of "apostolic grace." He gives the body of Christ a clear understanding of her heritage, ancestry, and culture, explaining what it really means to be apostolic.

The late Dr. Michael Heiser once said: "The Bible has some pretty strange things in it—things that are hard to believe, especially in our modern world." The Unseen Battle addresses some of these "stranger things" in the Bible.

Wann sollten Christen sich aufgrund verschiedener Lehrmeinungen trennen und wann sollten sie nach Einheit streben? Diese Frage lässt sich nicht immer einfach beantworten. Gavin Ortlund schlägt in Wofür es sich zu kämpfen lohnt – und wofür nicht vor, das aus der Medizin bekannte Konzept der Triage auf die theologischen Debatten anzuwenden und so die richtigen Prioritäten zu setzen. Er verwendet dabei vier Kategorien und fordert Christen dazu auf, theologische Diskussionen in Demut zu führen, um die Verbreitung des Evangeliums dadurch zu fördern.

We live in a season when church attendance is still building back to what it was before the pandemic. Many Christians have been separated from their church communities. How do we resume and re-prioritize church life and join back together? Why do we even need to—especially when online church fits so neatly around our schedules? Gathered for Good addresses this felt need with empathy and authority and encourage believers to commit to their local church community as a way to deepen their spiritual growth and invest in treasure that will last.

En Fundamentos Bíblicos para la Iglesia Basada en Células, el Dr. Comiskey establece la base bíblica para el ministerio de grupos pequeños. Comiskey primero examina la comunidad dentro de la Trinidad y la estructura familiar del grupo pequeño en el Antiguo Testamento. Luego explora cómo Jesús implementó la nueva familia de Dios a través de las comunidades estrechamente unidas que encontramos en las iglesias en las casas. Comiskey luego cubre ampliamente cómo la iglesia primitiva se reunía en las casas, levantó liderazgos desde el interior y reunió a las iglesias en las casas para celebrar.

In this book, Tony Merida highlights how in-person Sunday gatherings are central to God’s plans and to our faith and joy. He reminds believers of their privileges as citizens of heaven, members of God’s family, and stones in God’s temple.

"Hypothetical universalism," or "unlimited atonement," states that Christ's death is sufficient for the guilt of all people yet is only effectively applied to those with faith. This tradition, typified by the French Reformer Moïse Amyraut, has continued among Anglicans and Baptists for over four centuries, yet has been underexplored in Reformed systematic theology. Unlimited Atonement fills a gap in resources on atonement theology that begin with the unlimited love of God.
