Paperback. Condición: Good. There are many different numbers floating around to describe the percentage of 20-somethings that are leaving the church after they graduate high school, and most of those numbers are above 60%- which means, at most, 40% of our generation is staying in the church post high school. American Christianity often sees us as lost-- the invisible generation that no one knows how to reach.Can that be true? Are 20-somethings really that hopelessly lost? We're not so sure.After traveling to 23 states, visiting 32 churches, and talking to hundreds of millennials and church leaders, Heather Stevens and her team discovered five things that every 20-something is looking for in a church and every successful church is emphasizing in order to reach 20s. Rather than hearing the typical cliche answers like loud music and bright lights, or attractive preachers who wear tight pants and skinny ties, they found that the real need is much deeper than that: it's the innate human desire to be valued. In this book you'll not only get to experience the journey first-hand with Heather, but you'll also have the opportunity to learn from Will Mancini as he helps you walk through what your church is doing to reach the 20-somethings.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Care Talk provides key concepts and practical training for staff members and volunteers engaged in the work of caring for the people God entrusts to the church, as well as (and, just as importantly) each other. For ministry to be its best, any help offered can be------------ through skilled communication. For a person (guest, staff, or volunteer) in distress, leaving a conversation feeling loved and cared for can mean as much as the practical help given, and can open the door for a deeper relationship with Christ and the church. This book introduces the ideas of: - Responding to what you hear (not what you think about what you hear)- Being accessible, curious, and tenderhearted- Connecting via posture, orientation, and eye contact. This is a compact and easy read filled with trainable concepts and designed to make great communication in ministry accessible. Though written for the church at large, these skills will enhance every relationship in your life.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Sustainable Church is a thorough, Bible-based exposition of how the ministry of every church should be organically built around all of the Spirit-gifted followers of Jesus within that local body. It critiques the shallow pragmatism and unsustainability of non-organic churches and biblically showcases the sustainability of the organic church. Body Discipleship is a key part of the church's sustainability and the author explains biblically how it corrects the model of discipleship that has been popular for the last 2-3 generations. Additionally, Sustainable Church showcases the servant-model of biblical leaders who are supposed to equip the saints to do the work of ministry on behalf of Jesus, the true Pastor/Shepherd of every local church.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Recommended by the Nazarene Organic Church NetworkChange is rapidly occurring in almost every area of our society. However, the one notable exception to this is often found in the church, especially in smaller churches. Instead of responding to the changes around them, these churches have adopted a maintenance mentality, which is primarily interested in survival and risk-free ministries that are inwardly focused and fail to meet the needs of those outside their church community. If our churches are going to have an impact on today's culture, we have to move from a maintenance mindset to a missional one.Intentional Ministry in a Not-So-Mega Church is designed to help leaders of smaller churches guide their people in making their primary focus ministering to and meeting the needs of those outside their church. Drawing from more than twenty years of experience as a small-church pastor, Dennis Bickers explores the qualities of transformational leadership and explains what it takes for leaders to create a climate in their churches that promotes and facilitates necessary change. From willingness and vision to risk-taking and commitment, Bickers challenges leaders to become the agents of change their churches need as they seek to answer and act on the question: Who are we here for.…
