Through new research, he figuratively dissects hundreds of churches that were on the path toward death. But they turned around. They revitalized. They did so in the face of facts and naysayers who told them it could not be done. Today, three out of four churches are declining in our nation, and twenty percent of churches are close to death. What are the secrets of the churches who avoided this fate and experienced revival? In Anatomy of a Revived Church, Thom will show you how these churches experienced renewal. He will cover everything from “expanding the scorecard” to “dealing with toxins” to “choosing meaningful membership.” When you finish reading this book, you will have the tools to strengthen, restore, and energize your church. You can choose life for your church.

After reading this book, you will appreciate those who have dedicated their lives to preaching the Gospel, and you will empathize with those imprisoned by human trafficking as you see how God can redeem their lives. Project Rescue was no grand strategy of a lone abolitionist who set out to stop sex slavery twenty-five years ago. Instead, courageous men and women of God in different cities of Southern Asia and Europe were led by the Spirit to take Jesus and hope to their cities’ darkest streets and victims of sex slavery. These pioneers had little in common to bring to this battle. But each one was marked by a daring willingness to obey God’s voice and a relentless belief that women and children in prostitution were indeed in the heart and plans of God. What made them different in the anti-trafficking space is that they decided to do the journey together, not alone. Project Rescue network ministry leaders have learned together, prayed...

These encouraging words and images from artist, entrepreneur and writer Becky Strahle help readers recognize God’s presence in the ups and downs of their daily lives.

Everyday Prayers for Peace is a thirty-day devotional and reflective journal for women seeking peace both in their homes and in the world at large. How do you pray for peace when it seems like your whole life is spinning out of control? In Everyday Prayers for Peace: A 30-Day Devotional & Reflective Journal for Women, author Brooke McGlothlin guides you through prayers for peace wherever it’s needed—in your family, your community, your workplace, your church, and the world at large. This thirty-day devotional features Brooke’s “Think, Pray, Praise” method of daily prayer—a practical, biblical way to pray the Word of God over yourself and the people you love. Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid” (John 14:27). Brooke says Jesus does not simply give us peace; He is our peace. He is "our refuge in the storm, a place where we can run to get strength, comfort, and truth to see us through whatever troubled circumstances would come our way." This peace offered by our dear Lord can be ours if we just pray.

Summary David Mathis Examines the Qualifications and Calling of Church Leaders for a New Generation of Congregants and Leaders We live in an age increasingly cynical about leadership—some of it for good reason, much of it simply the mood of our times. Still, the risen Christ continues the countercultural work he’s done for two millennia: he appoints leaders in his church—not as a burden, but as a gift to his people. “He gave . . . the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry” (Ephesians 4:11–12).

Although these things seem small, their impact will be bigger, and their rewards will be better, than anything we could dream for ourselves.

As Christians, we love God and seek to follow him. At the same time, nothing shapes us and tugs at our loyalties quite like the place we live. And of course we are regularly encouraged to pledge our allegiance to our country—or particular understandings of it. Who wins when the priorities of God and our country clash? In Kingdom and Country, a collection of leading Christian thinkers and practitioners take a holistic approach to considering the questions of patriotism, nationalism, and where our ultimate loyalties must like.

Cultural Identity and the Purposes of God A Biblical Theology of Ethnicity, Nationality, and Race Steven M. Bryan

Summary Understanding God’s Design for Cultural Diversity Humanity’s diverse nationalities, ethnicities, and races were intended to be a blessing from God. However, due to sin and rebellion, these differences often result in alienation, hatred, and even violence, becoming one of the most urgent problems facing the world. Cultural divisions are unfortunately common in the church, too. How can Christians embrace God’s purposes for diversity and experience renewal and unity as his people?

Many American Christians have good intentions, working hard to welcome immigrants with hospitality and solidarity. But how can we do that in a way that puts our immigrant neighbors first rather than pushing them to the fringes of white dominant culture and keeping them as outsiders? That's exactly the question Karen González explores in Beyond Welcome. A Guatemalan immigrant, González draws from the Bible and her own experiences to examine why the traditional approach to immigration ministries and activism can be at best incomplete and at worst harmful. By advocating for putting immigrants themselves in the center of the conversation, González helps readers grow in discipleship and recognize themselves in their immigrant neighbors. Accessible to any Christian who is called to serve immigrants, this book equips readers to take action to dismantle white supremacy and xenophobia in the church. They will emerge with new insight into our shared humanity and need for belonging and liberation.

Contributor Bio Karen González is a writer, speaker, and immigrant advocate who emigrated from Guatemala as a child. She attended Fuller Theological Seminary, where she studied theology and missiology, and has worked in the nonprofit sector for 13 years.

Christianity is fighting for its soul. We’ve enjoyed the benefits of power and privilege for so long that many of us have forgotten the radical way of Jesus. But we have been here before. And there is a way through. Within a few hundred years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, Christianity emerged as the dominant religion of the Roman Empire. Where once it took courage to be a Christian, now following Jesus gained people entry into the lush life. The radical way of Jesus was being lost. Toward the end of the fourth century, a group of men and women began to withdraw from the halls of privilege and power into the desert to rediscover the essence of Jesus Christ. The stories and examples of these desert fathers and mothers are recorded for us. And their lives still speak by: embracing the disciplines of solitude, silence, and prayer; pursuing humility, generosity, and unity above all things; develop...

Why does it so often feel like Christians can’t talk about the real, hard stuff in life? We know our lives should reflect Jesus; what He did and said, and how He interacted with others. But if we’re being honest, there are days when we face tough, confusing things that can make us feel, well, very not like Jesus.

Out of the Embers Faith After the Great Deconstruction Bradley Jersak, Brian Zahnd

Bradley Jersak has a built-in fan base from his books in the "More Christlke" series and other works. Author has had very good traction on many podcasts; on several of them, such as The Nomad Podcast, his has been the most downloaded episode ever He is the coauthor with William Paul Young (author of the best-selling novel The Shack) of the novel The Pastor: A Crisis. Foreword by Brian Zahnd. Author has had a busy speaking schedule for two decades, discussing issues such as those addressed in this book. Book speaks to many people's struggles with doubts about their faith, disillusionment with organized religion, and healing from spiritual abuse. In the Great Deconstruction, Christianity is simultaneously being evacuated, reframed, or radicalized. In the last twenty years, between 60 to 100 million Americans no longer identify as Christians. Many continue to affirm "Jesus," but he's often a construct who'd be unrecognizable to disciples who knew him. This book speaks to their journey. This book differentiates between the popular conception of deconstruction as the complete dismantling of one's erroneous or disappointing faith/religion--which leaves people without hope and disconnected--and deconstruction that leads to reconstruction with the forging of a new and authentic faith. The book explores deconstruction that occurs from personal crises of faith, emotional or physical trauma, loss, and societal/cultural upheaval (the sea change across the Western church and civilization and globally with climate change, political chaos, race issues, culture wars, the pandemic) that is uprooting people's lives today. Exposes readers to deconstructionist ideas of theologians and philosophers of the past in a personal, approachable, and comprehensible way to glean truths for their lives today.

Summary Deconstruction: Trendy brand name for falling away from belief in God? Or a process essential to authentic faith? Liberation or trauma? Prison break or exile? It’s complicated. Just like you. Christian history records a Great Reformation and a Great Awakening. But today’s “Great Deconstruction” will surely leave an equally profound impact. In Out of the Embers, Bradley Jersak explores the necessity, perils, and possibilities of the Great Deconstruction—how it has the potential to either sabotage our communion with God or infuse it with the breath of life, the light and life of Christ himself.

Submitted By: Brian Watkins

In this collection of vulnerable memoirs, philosophical memos, and candid provocations, Jersak resists both the hand-wringing urge to corral stray sheep and the exultant desire to play the happy-clappy Ex-vangelical cheerleader. He employs the wisdom and expertise of the great deconstructionists—Christianity’s ancient influences (Moses, Plato, Paul, and the Patristics), “beloved frenemies” (from Vol...

Pastor David Tomberlin explains the difference between true, saving grace and counterfeit versions in Grace Is Free, But It Isn’t Cheap: Challenging Today’s Watered Down Version of Salvation. When Jesus walked the earth, rather than expressing anger toward cheating tax collectors and prostitutes, He gently urged them to walk away from their sins. Jesus saved His wrath for the hypocritical Pharisees who pretended to offer grace but only demanded adherence to their endless rules. Today, Pastor David Tomberlin says, some preachers offer another kind of grace that’s just as damaging—a cheap, “greasy” grace that says there’s no need to repent because Jesus paid for all of our sins on the cross. “Fake, cheap, greasy grace doesn’t transform,” he says. “It doesn’t set the captive free; it pats the captive on the back reassuringly on his road to destruction. Therefore, those ensnared in sin stay stuck while heaps of feel-good words pile on them.” In Grace Is Free, But It Isn’t Cheap: Challenging Today’s Watered Down Version of Salvation, Tomberlin takes up the clarion call once voiced by Dietrich Bonhoeffer for believers to appreciate the high cost Christ paid for the salvation of huma...

Fulfilling our Mission by noted international evangelist Reinhard Bonnke explores truths, stories, and principles from the Bible that show how to effectively reach out to others with the love of God and the salvation of Jesus Christ. This book builds upon Bonnke's previous book, Hell Empty, Heaven Full, demonstrating God's great compassion for the world. Tens of millions of people came to know Christ through Bonnke’s ministry. As he explains, in evangelism, there is no “right” way of doing things but only right principles, principles that can be drawn from the New Testament. In Scripture, God equipped the least likely individuals for His providential purposes. He wants each one of us to participate in reaching the world because He deeply loves all people. Where the Holy Spirit provides the tiniest spark, a start can be made. You cannot learn to play the piano better by hearing more lectures about piano-playing techniques.

Those who identify as "spiritual but not religious." Current churchgoing Christian women who are questioning if church is really necessary. Do you really need church to have a relationship with God? Church can produce all kinds of automatic reactions depending on your past experiences. Perhaps your family was actively involved in church, or maybe your experience was limited to attending on the occasional holiday. Is it a place you associate with feelings of shame or joy? Does it bring anxiety, or do you have fond memories? Few people are neutral on the subject of church.

Reaching Your Muslim Neighbor with the Gospel A. S. Ibrahim

Summary How to Better Engage and Share the Gospel with Muslims Muslims are coming to Christ more than ever before, which is why having a robust, Christ-centered foundation for evangelism is essential.

In Reaching Your Muslim Neighbor with the Gospel, A. S. Ibrahim seeks to provide readers with insight and practical tips to engage and share the gospel with Muslim friends and neighbors. Ibrahim divides the book into two sections: (1) a Christian understanding of the strands of Islam and the diversity of Muslims, and (2) practical ways for Christians to connect with Muslims and effectively communicate the gospel.

Counterfeit Kingdom The Dangers of New Revelation, New Prophets, and New Age Practices in the Church Holly Pivec, R. Douglas Geivett

Summary The dangerous practices of the New Apostolic Reformation used to live on the fringes of the church, but are now mainstream, and many are being influenced by it unaware. This book is a wake-up call. Is there a new reformation happening in the church? It depends on who you ask. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a popular and fast-growing new movement of Christians who emphasize signs and wonders, and teach that God is giving new revelation through new apostles and prophets. But is this biblical Christianity?

America has passed a tipping point. A majority of Americans now say that truth is up to the individual and that ultimate truth cannot be known. Learning to "speak our own truths" was supposed to lead to dignity and harmony. Instead, our society struggles with unprecedented levels of social conflict, purposelessness, and loss of identity. And still, the "Truth versus truths" tension continues to grow. Is all hope lost? In this inspiring book, Dr. Jeff Myers tells the fascinating stories of Jesus-followers who lived for Truth and transformed their world in times of crisis. These inspiring figures led the way in human dignity, science, art, medicine, education, politics, justice, and even the idea of meaningful work. No matter what is going on around us, the truth is worth fighting for. If you long for a positive, restorative role in our own chaotic era, it's time to discover how truth changes everything.

Many Christians are disconnected from the past or imagine they are "above" history, immune to it, as if self-starters from clean slates in every generation. They suffer from a lack of awareness of time and the effects of history--both personal and collective--and thus are naive about current issues and fixated on the end times. Popular speaker and award-winning author James K. A. Smith shows that awakening to the spiritual significance of time is crucial for orienting faith in the 21st century. He encourages us to cultivate the spiritual discipline of memento tempori, a temporal awareness of the Spirit's presence--indebted to a past, oriented toward the future, and faithful in the present.
