Leading Faithful Innovation

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Leading Faithful Innovation: Following God into a Hopeful Future is a must-read for congregational leaders today. The authors not only make the case for faithful innovation and experimentation in congregational ministry but outline how to actually put it into practice. This is not a handbook on the latest gimmicks for church growth but, rather, a model for church life where leaders intentionally listen to God’s voice (starting with Scripture), act on what is heard, and then share subsequent learnings with others. Along the way, leaders may find their own lives transformed as their congregations become centers for faithful innovation in Christ’s name.”

My Burden Is Light

Preaching & Worship

“Bishop Satterlee captures well the current challenge in preaching and provides clear, pastoral wisdom for preachers. His words are simple, playful at times, and a needed resource for preachers in any stage of their preaching life. With humility and grace, Satterlee gives practical suggestions for keeping Jesus at the center of our proclamation. Reading this book is balm for a weary preacher's soul.”

The Augsburg Confession

Theology

“In this commentary on the Augsburg Confession, Timothy Wengert shares personal and pastoral vignettes to illustrate the timelessness of this foundational document. Wengert connects us to our faith ancestors in new and refreshing ways. This is a helpful resource for those who work in congregations today.”
