Joining God in the Great Unraveling

Church Leadership & Ministry

“The title of this book conveys two important and connected realities. First, profound change is impacting our culture and the churches that attempt to minister in such a context. Second, God has not abandoned either our culture or his church. Finding our way in the midst of anxiety-producing change is a challenge that requires some signposts, and Alan Roxburgh’s latest offering helps to locate that signage in ways that local leaders can recognize and engage with.”

Kingdom First

Christian Living

“This is a book rich in wisdom, insight, and experience. The combination of knowledge and the delightful recounting of stories makes an enjoyable and memorable read. The last chapter on leadership is particularly helpful and readers may well wish to read this chapter a number of times. Bob’s wide experience of different cultures and context’s helps him to convey the lessons of a lifetime.”

Leadership, God’s Agency, and Disruptions

Church Leadership & Ministry

“There are many books that offer descriptors of that which is wrong with the church in the Western world. Few, however, offer a way forward that is not merely a reflection of the current fixation of the West with methods, techniques, and programmes. . . . Mark and Alan’s offering brings together a well-tuned intellectual and academic perception, practical engagement in ministry, and a significant insight into what the journey ahead might be.”

Missional Discipleship After Christendom

Discipleship & Christian Education

“The challenge to ‘come and follow me’ can sound scandalous to the ears of some. Yet it is precisely the challenge to become like Jesus that keeps the Christian faith fresh and relevant. Living as a disciple of Christ is the issue of the age for believers at a time when discipleship is arguably a lost art. The debate about discipleship has begun. Hardy and Yarnell offer a valuable perspective in deepening such a dialogue.”

Power and the Powers

Evangelism & Missions

“The issue of power, its uses and abuses, concern about trust and the complex relationship between power, the powers, and a Christian view of evil, are all troubling and disturbing issues. Those in ministry and leadership grapple with these issues but with few maps to guide them. This helpful volume bridges the gap between helpful but inaccessible academic works and the accessible but sometimes superficial popular books on these areas. Thoughtful leaders will find this book an invaluable guide to their reflection on these key leadership issues.”

Servantship

Christian Living

“Ever since Robert Greenleaf's pioneering work on servant leadership, there has been a need for a thorough theological exploration of the subject. Graham Hill's insightful book meets this need in a balanced and thorough way. There are many books on leadership but the servant dimension has often been overlooked. A timely contribution.”

The Forgotten Ways

Christian Living

“This book clearly demonstrates Alan’s original and creative thinking. There are few books that one can describe as markers in the field of mission—this is one such book. It is essential reading for all those who are grappling with the key issue of what the church can and must become.”

The Missional Church in Perspective

Church Leadership & Ministry

“This volume performs two essential tasks. First, it provides us with a way of understanding the missional conversation so that we can make sense of the many contributions to the debate. Second, it provides a theological framework that propels the conversation to a new level of debate. Van Gelder and Zscheile offer a work that is generous, balanced, and insightful.”
