Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who Moved My Pulpit? may not be the exact question you’re asking. But you’re certainly asking questions about change in the church—where it’s coming from, why it’s happening, and how you’re supposed to hang on and follow God through it—even get out ahead of it so your church is faithfully meeting its timeless calling and serving the new opportunities of this age. Based on conversations with thousands of pastors, combined with on-the-ground research from more than 50,000 churches, best-selling author Thom S. Rainer shares an eight-stage roadmap to leading change in your church. Not by changing doctrine. Not by changing biblical foundations. But by changing methodologies and approaches for reaching a rapidly changing culture. You are the pastor. You are the church staff person. You are an elder. You are a deacon. You are a key lay leader in the church. This is the book that will equip you to celebrate and lead change no matter the cost. The time is now.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time, Moses had had enough. Exhausted by the challenge of leading the Israelites from slavery to the Promised Land, Moses cried out to God, "What have I done to displease you that you put the burden of all these people on me? . . . If this is how you are going to treat me, please go ahead and kill me" (Exodus 11:11, 15). If that sounds hauntingly familiar to you, you may be the senior pastor of a contemporary church. The burden of Christian leadership is becoming increasingly unbearable--demanding skills not native to the art of pastoring; demanding time that makes sabbath rest and even normal sleep patterns seem extravagant; demanding inhuman levels of efficiency, proficiency and even saintliness. No wonder pastors seem and even feel less human these days. No wonder they burn out or break down at an alarming rate; no wonder the church is missing the mark on its mission. In Creating a Missional Culture, JR Woodward offers a bold and surprisingly refreshing model for churches--not small adjustments around the periphery of a church's infrastructure but a radical revisioning of how a church ought to look, from its leadership structure to its mobilization of the laity. The end result looks surprisingly like the church that Jesus created and the apostles cultivated: a church not chasing the wind but rather going into the world and making disciples of Jesus.

Book excerpt: Millions of Christians around the world are becoming aware of an imminent reformation of global proportions within the church. God is changing this revered institution and is making a new collective awareness of an age-old revelation, a corporate spiritual echo that reflects God's desire for the church. In this book, Simson brings to light what God is saying to Christians everywhere. Researched across the globe, he presents the case for the reformation of the church's existence. In a world where the church is being ignored, it is time to bring the church to the people and not the people to the church. Whether it is what we know as church from the last five years or the last five hundred years, no one has truly been able to break free from the structures of the past. Many may see this book as radical, many may see it as a reforming of old ideals but all who read it will be challenged and their priorities refocused in a life-changing way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neighborhoods are moving. While neighborhood changes can mean exciting and fresh opportunities for some, the experience can be vastly different for long-time residents. The rapid movement of people means changes in employment, economics, landscape, demographics, and the feel of a community. Churches often experience the painful impact of these shifts. Depending on how a church navigates through these changes determines if it will either live, die, or be reduced to a tragic existence on life support. Mark Strong knows the obstacles connected with gentrification and the challenges it brings. As a pastor, he led his church through its own moved neighborhood in Portland. Strong shares the frustrations, surprises, and joys that his church experienced as their neighborhood shifted, and he provides the roadmap that his own church used to navigate the change. Who Moved My Neighborhood? gives insight to churches that need to heal from the wounds of gentrification and economic change, and revamp their mission amidst an uncertain future. Using the discussion guide included in the book, churches can discuss their own moved neighborhood and explore the unique next steps that God has for their community. There is hope and a future for congregations that face a moved neighborhood.

If you ever wondered about medicine's history, and how it became the force or, maze, it is todoy, this book explains it in an entertaining and informative way.

Fantasy is the metaphor for the story, because it represents something that is important to us, something that we are comfortable with, something we enjoy, something we would really miss, something that makes us happy, something we practice without giving much thought to the outcome, something we don’t want to give up, and something that can even destroy us. We will look at the change that comes into the lives of these three characters, and how they learn to deal with that change, and ultimately realize that change for all the right reasons is good

Book excerpt: Are you wondering whether there is more to your Christianity? Not that God is deficient in any way but that you personally, are somehow missing out of a vital component of your spiritual journey. Whether you call it vision, purpose or destiny, when tallied up the equation produces the same feelings of emptiness and longing. Despite the presence of good works and effective acts of service, echoes of a deeper walk keep whispering in the night; "Will you follow? Will you follow Me-anywhere I choose?" If you have had a stirring in your heart and a willingness to ask, trust and obey then read this book. Throughout its pages you will discover, as did one family, a God who is wild, not at all predictable but always faithful to those willing to risk crossing over to the other side with Him. The same Lord who led Israel through the wilderness by cloud and fire will lead you today. Be encouraged, He did not let Peter drown and if needed, He will rescue you or give you swimming lessons. Go deeper-and enjoy the ride of your life! Dr. John along with his wife Pina and son Jonah currently live in Ireland. Their older son Joseph intends to join them in the Emerald Isle. They are called to build and establish the Body of Christ and serve God's people. John received a doctorate in Educational Leadership from Oral Roberts University.
