Church in Life

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Michael Moynagh has done it again! Building on his foundational work, A Church for Every Context, he goes on to create a framework for innovation in the church . . . This is a work that will bring hope and inspiration to the innovative church leaders who understand that God is up to something brand new in the world today. Moynagh does not depreciate the traditional church but instead builds bridges between inherited and new expressions of church. Once again, Moynagh shows his deep roots in theology along with an understanding of the hard, practical, on-the-ground work of starting new ecclesial communities . . . This book is both a work of theology and a very practical guidebook for leaders with a new vision for being church in a particular context.”

Starting Missional Churches

Church Leadership & Ministry

“'If you build it, they will come' may be good advice for creating a ballpark in the middle of a cornfield, but it doesn?t work for starting new churches in post-Christian North America. When all the expert advice about church planting leads us down a rabbit hole, we need to start over again by turning to biblical and missional foundations. Mark Lau Branson and Nick Warnes show us a new/old way to embark on the daring adventure of starting missional faith communities through building relationships rather than buildings. This book is an important and engaging addition to the current church planting literature.”

Sustaining Grace

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Hurray for Scott Hagley and his team for taking on the most challenging obstacle for most new worshiping communities, how to become sustainable for longer than the first couple of years. Sustaining Grace helps us to see that starting new churches is not an optional luxury item in the expense line for thriving churches. Instead it is essential for the sustainability of God’s church in all its expressions.”
