Bringing Home the Message

Church Leadership & Ministry

“His plan for sermon-based small groups and his own reflections on implementing the plan will help preachers and congregations who are serious about reclaiming the essential connection between the Word preached and how it is lived out in a particular congregation.”

Mapping Church Missions

Evangelism & Missions

“Congregations are engaging in mission more directly, mobilizing themselves as institutions and mobilizing their members as individuals for service at home and far away. As they do, they face new challenges and the need for new discernment. Hoover recognizes that a church’s best efforts can quickly be undone by a failure to navigate tensions and false divisions that are often set up in the church. . . . In Mapping Church Missions, Hoover tells stories in which her readers will recognize themselves and the challenges they face, and she shares knowledge and wisdom that will help mission leaders and their congregations to find their way. This is a book to read and share with others, and the discussion questions that accompany each chapter make it easy to study together.”

Path of Life

“In this engaging, practical study of the Bible's wisdom literature, Chris Scruggs calls us away from the assumptions of today's world and invites us to humbly open our lives to the wisdom that has its source in God. Scruggs winsomely shows how these texts can help us to rediscover the moral order of the universe and to see reality and our lives as God sees them.”
