Renewing Communication

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Colleen Derr speaks of Christian formation as if the Holy Spirit actually matters. Her writing is carefully nuanced between the work of the Spirit and the work of the person as compelled by the Holy Spirit. She operates with a rich pneumatology and creates a compelling vision for what a transformed church might look like. Bathed in Scripture, this book is a helpful tool for anyone who desires to communicate in a way that actually affects lives.”

The Invitation

Evangelism & Missions

“Evangelism has long been a topic that causes Christians to squirm. Varying understandings and practices tend to be murky if not conflicting. Osmer provides a beautiful reimagining of evangelism that is deeply rooted in theology and Scripture. He manages to untangle the complexities found in various traditions and provides the reader with a hope-filled understanding of this invitation to the gospel message. It can be difficult to appeal to both the academic guild and the local church, but Osmer does this brilliantly. This is practical theology at its very best.”
