“Sharing the biblical reflections of leadership guru J. Robert Clinton, Reese and Loane ably communicate the insights gained from a lifetime of study. Their book imparts life-changing ideas.

Growing Women in Ministry

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Anna Morgan integrates the real-life insights of an experienced leader with the disciplined study of leadership development. Morgan’s examination of critical issues identifies seven key areas for forming women as leaders. Building on the lifelong learning platform, Morgan skillfully develops a process based on extensive research on women leaders. Growing Women in Ministry is a book worthy of careful study by a leadership team and worthy of broad implementation.”

Is the Commission Still Great?

Evangelism & Missions

“The debate over responsibility for the Great Commission is an enduring feature of Christian mission. The modern missionary movement was widely influenced by an important article to the churches that questioned their responsibility to go and make disciples of all nations. In that tradition, Steve Richardson offers thoughtful responses to eight common concerns about missions found in churches today. The book is ideal for small groups and church mission committees to foster a discussion of the role of individuals and churches in fulfilling God's mission for the world. Richardson's writing invites you to participate in a way that will result in significant outcomes.”

Leading Financial Sustainability in Theological Institutions

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Bellon as a missiologist and educator brings together the historical, administrative, and strategic conversations on the role of theological education in Africa and beyond. A sobering analysis of the situation is followed by an astute prescription for the future. We need to learn these lessons!”

Missional Life in Practice and Theory

Evangelism & Missions

“Christopher Flanders and Greg McKinzie demonstrate their ability to lead a group of scholars toward an important goal: honoring a worthy colleague. Gailyn Van Rheenen’s service as a highly respected missionary, missiologist, educator, author, and mentor deserves such honor. The book fulfills the promise in the title, giving us an important look into missional life in practice and theory while honoring one who was able to do both.”

The Study of Evangelism

Evangelism & Missions

“In The Study of Evangelism Paul Chilcote and Laceye Warner bring together the writings of outstanding international scholars who have also engaged in evangelism through the church. This groundbreaking volume crosses the barriers of tradition and culture to engage in topics that cannot be ignored if the church is to truly be missional today. It is refreshing to have such a diverse range of issues and perspectives in a single volume. True to their goal, the authors combine the best of missiology and theological insights for serious students of evangelism.”

Transforming Worldviews

Evangelism & Missions

“True to his unique contribution to missiology, in this final contribution Paul Hiebert has opened our understanding of worldview at a depth yet unexplored. Transforming Worldviews begins with a thorough examination of the concepts of worldview, moves on to cultural and philosophical analysis, follows with sound biblical reflection, and ends with a call to transformation. This promises to be a classic in the study of missions. It is Hiebert at his best!”

Unmasking the Male Soul

Men

“Wilmer Villacorta delivers on his promise to unmask the male soul. His analysis of the distressing behavior and rhetoric surrounding the issues of hyper-masculinity are eye-opening. Focusing on human relationships, particularly those of men toward women, he adds new understandings of the nature of abuse and the urgent need for transformation. Villacorta’s outstanding contribution to the conversation invites men and women to think again about relationship to God and one another in humility with integrity.”
