Church Leadership & Ministry
“Snyder and Runyon help the reader ask tough questions and consider new possibilities that could make a world of difference for tomorrow's communities of faith.”
Evangelism & Missions
“An unforgettable trip to real life in Fresno to see how Jesus uses real people to make a real difference. Essential reading for anyone who wants to see God's dreams come true in the city. Randy compellingly weaves stories from the streets with stories from the gospel and provides insightful guidelines for those who want to discover how God might want to use their mustard seeds in the city.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“I find that a growing number of people in our churches are under daunting financial and time pressures and can't find resources to help. Here is a masterful resource to enable people of faith to put first things first. Recently I had the opportunity to meet with Mark and Lisa and their congregation in San Francisco. I have never been with a group of Christians that have helped one another more in becoming faithful stewards of their lives and resources. Mark's new book is not only a must-read, it is a must-study resource for every congregation that wants to enable their members to live more fully and compassionately in times like these.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“This important, well-written book is a must-read for those looking for a way to integrate word and deed to advance God’s purposes in our needy world.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Finding new metaphors has become an urgent task of the young leaders concerned about ministry in a postmodern world. Spencer Burke and Colleen Pepper are masters at capturing the new images, symbols, and words that express the journey into the future. They provide us with handles to walk the journey, and they do so with unforgettable color and challenging imagery." —Robert Webber, Myers Professor of Ministry, Northern Seminary, Author of The Younger Evangelicals "Spencer Burke is the right man at the right place at the right time. He enjoys a ringside seat in the dramatic dialog between the church of history and the church of post-history. He stands in the middle—between where God has been and where God is going. No iconoclast, Burke embraces both past and future while challenging the dead metaphors of a passing culture and the overnight clichés of the new ‘cool’ culture. Throughout Making Sense of Church, he blows away church leaders at both ends of the spectrum with the ‘extreme reality’ of a loving Christ." —Thomas Hohstadt, Author of Dying to Live, FutureChurch.net "For all those confused about where the church is going and what we should be doing about it, Making Sense of Church is a big help. It’s a sensible rapprochement between established churches and the emerging churches of the 21st century." —Tony Campolo, Professor of Sociology, Eastern University "Spencer Burke invites us to invest ourselves in the challenging work of reexamining what it means to be a Christ-follower in a new postmodern culture. This book is must-reading for all those in both the emerging and the established church who want to create authentic new expressions of life, church, and mission.”
Christian Living
“In The Colors of Hope, Richard Dahlstrom brings a welcome call to a biblical faith that calls us beyond ourselves and the polarized debates in our society. He invites us to discover the unique ways God can use our lives and paintbrushes to bring the colors of compassion, justice, and celebration to a world hungry to find a little hope. We in Seattle are glad to share Richard Dahlstrom’s prophetic voice with Christians throughout our society who want to take Scripture seriously in their lives, churches, and in our troubled world.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“As we begin to slowly transition into a new normal, some of us are recovering from illness or loss, and many of us are struggling with a loss of focus in our lives. If you are one of those who are not only looking forward to a new normal but also a new reason for being, I want to introduce you to Mark Scandrette and his new book The Ninefold Path of Jesus. If you're looking for a follower of Jesus who can offer you a pathway to a more compelling whole-life faith for times like these, check out this book. Mark will show you creative new ways to both be a difference and make a difference that reflect the ways of Jesus.”
