Book excerpt: Imagine for a moment...that you can forget almost everything you've ever read, ever heard, ever been taught about preaching. Somehow, everything is new; nothing is impossible. Imagine if----with the Holy Spirit's working----missional communities could be formed, vibrant stories would be told and retold for generations, in new and ever vivid manners of communication. emergentYS author and pastor Doug Pagitt offers an invitation to the kind of preaching that 'creates followers of God who serve the world well and live the invitation to the rhythm of God.' He introduces you to an approach to engaging with the Bible with a focus on three questions: * What kind of communities are we forming? (Sociology) * What story are we telling? (Theology) * How can we tell it more effectively? (Communication) These questions are engaged through the introduction of Progressional Implicatory Preaching. This insightful combination of both theory and practical advice will open the floodgates of your imagination to once again dream big dreams for your church. Envision Preaching beyond speechmaking as an agent in the creation of Christian communities and take a hopeful look toward new approaches to encouraging the spiritual formation of your church body. Includes study/discussion questions.

People today want to connect with God; they crave spirituality. But inside the walls of the church they’re getting a 30- to 50-minute spiritual monologue. Simply put, sermons do not communicate effectively in a YouTube, Twitter, Google world. We just can’t keep doing business—preaching—as we always have in this fluid culture. Sermons Reimagined will teach you easy, practical ways to reach today’s audience, who: • Consume sound bites, not sermons • Process information visually, not verbally • Apply concepts through experiences and interaction, not passivity and lectures It’s time to reimagine the sermon to reach a new generation. This book will show you how.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you’ve ever wondered how you could be more effective at engaging audiences, conveying what you have to say and, thereby, motivating them to change their attitudes and behaviour – you’re not alone. Robert Little has often wondered the same thing (but about himself, not you). He’s spent many years speaking in the world of business; advising other people on how to speak; listening to and watching others speak in a variety of contexts, as well as being a preacher. He’s also been a singer, performing as a soloist in concerts and operas around the UK. Cajoled into writing this book – outlining many of the tips and techniques you’ll need to be an effective public speaker – Robert has captured relevant thoughts and observations from many people. These include practical, pragmatic, preachers; assiduous academics, along with popular presenters and personable performers from the worlds of business, the arts and even sport. He’s contributed several of his own tried-and-tested techniques, too. Robert believes Christian communicators tend to miss out on some of this book’s tips and techniques which have been garnered from today’s business world. These tips and techniques focus on how to engage and keep an audience’s attention – and motivate that audience to put into practice what they hear and see. So, this book is worth at least a cursory glance from those who want their preaching ministry (or any other type of public speaking) to be effective – as well as, perhaps, to be memorable, popular and successful. *If you’re a Baptist, part of the Baptist church leadership, or just want to improve your biblical preaching and public speaking, this book can help you to prepare for worship leading. Discover the responsibilities of a worship leader; references to leading worship, Scripture and much more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Warren Wiersbe, The Supremacy of God in Preaching "calls us back to a biblical standard for preaching, a standard exemplified by many of the pulpit giants of the past, especially Jonathan Edwards and Charles Spurgeon." This newly revised and expanded edition is an essential guide for preachers who want to stir the embers of revival. Piper has added valuable new material reflecting on his thirty-three years of preaching at Bethlehem Baptist Church, offering a glimpse of what a lifetime of putting God first has done for the faith of the hundreds of thousands who have heard him preach over the years.

Book excerpt: In Baptists and the Emerging Church Movement, David Rathel examines the major ecclesiological proposals of the emerging church movement. Though many theologians argue that the emerging church movement emphasizes epistemology, Rathel contends that its primary concern is ecclesiology. Emerging church leaders offer a number of important ecclesiological proposals, including restructuring traditional church leadership models to accommodate the rise of postmodernity, changing the mission of the church so that the church may strike a more "missional" tone in contemporary culture, removing the categories of "in" or "out" within the church body, and adopting the multi-site church model. In assessing these proposals, Rathel draws upon historic Baptist convictions about the nature of the church, using Baptists' ecclesiological distinctives and long history of ecclesiological thought as a helpful reference point. This book will not only serve as a guide for those who wish to learn of emerging church ecclesiology, it will also be an aid to Baptists who wish to evaluate recent trends in ecclesiology in light of their denominational distinctives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While plenty of books related to the conversations as well as controversies surrounding the emergent church have surfaced in recent years, no comprehensive evangelical assessment of the movement has been published until now. Evangelicals Engaging Emergent draws from a broad spectrum of conservative evangelicalism to serve as a clear, informative, fair, and respectful guide for those desiring to know what “emergent” means, why it originated, where the movement is going, what issues concern emergent believers, and where they sometimes go wrong theologically. Among the dozen contributors are Norman Geisler (“A Postmodern View of Scripture”), Darrell Bock (“Emergent/Emerging Christologies”), Ed Stetzer (“The Emergent/Emerging Church: A Missiological Perspective”), and Daniel Akin (“The Emerging Church and Ethical Choices: The Corinthian Matrix”).
