The Evangelistic Love of God & Neighbor: A Theology of Witness & Discipleship
ISBN: 9780687046140 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There are, it seems, as many definitions of the term "evangelism" as there are people doing the defining. For some, it means proclaiming the gospel to those who have not heard it. To others, it means making disciples of Jesus Christ. To others, it means working for the transformation of the world into the kingdom of God. For still others, it has principally to do with building vibrant, healthy congregations. Underlying this confusion is a fundamental inability to locate the practice of evangelism within one's overall theological convictions. We will never understand the part that...

Radical Outreach: The Recovery of Apostolic Ministry and Evangelism
ISBN: 9780687074419 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book tells how the contemporary church can reclaim its ancient witness through hands-on ministries with the unchurched. When it comes to transforming people's lives and leading them into active Christian discipleship, why does there seem to be such a difference between the church we read about in the New Testament and our own churches today? What was it about those earliest Christians that empowered them to spread the gospel with such startling results? One core reason, says George G. Hunter III, is that they reached out into the communities in which they lived. Instead of...

Altar Call: Inviting Response to the Gospel
ISBN: 9780687091423 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume examines commitment in the context of the individual and institutional response to God's call to be God's people. "The call from God is a call to the altar, to the holy, in a simple do-able way," explains the author. "Right now we are a little like an aborted African chant in the mainline church; there is a call, but no response." Donna Schaper outlines various reasons for this disconnect between call and response, and she offers ten concrete ways of responding to the gospel through specific actions that will help persons reconnect with their commitment to be the people of God.

Needs-Based Evangelism: Becoming a Good Samaritan Church
ISBN: 9780687332489 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. By meeting needs of people through intentional ministries, churches will grow; but more importantly they will fulfill their biblical mandate to care for those who are hurting and suffering. Being a Good Samaritan church begins with the leadership. It requires an absolute commitment to address the needs of people in order to invite them to become disciples of Jesus Christ. But in order to compete with and appeal to unchurched people in today's secular and consumer-driven society, the church needs to be entrepreneurial in its method of evangelist outreach. In this book, Rev. Robert... By meeting needs of people through intentional ministries, churches will grow; but more importantly they will fulfill their biblical mandate to car... |

Evangelism in the Small Membership Church
ISBN: 9780687335794 / Angielski / Miękka / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Evangelism has nothing to do with church size but everything to do with making disciples.
Evangelism is about introducing people to Jesus but also helping them to grow in Christ. Evangelism has nothing to do with church size, but everything to do with making disciples. Making disciples is a call from God for all churches whether that church is in a declining rural community, a teeming inner city, or a sprawling suburb. In fact, small membership congregations are often more effective in evangelism then their sister megachurches. This book will help pastors have "God eyes" for big...

The Story of Evangelism: A History of the Witness to the Gospel
ISBN: 9780687352036 / Angielski / Miękka / 435 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The gospel is about good news, then bad news, then even more good news. The good news of God's loving creation of the world is followed by the bad news that human beings decided to reject the relationship with God and one another for which God created them. The Good News is that God broke into human history in Jesus Christ and made it possible for the members of flawed and fallen humanity to be reconciled to God and hence to one another. Telling that story, living the story, working for the transformation of human lives by the story-that, says Robert Tuttle, is what evangelism is...

Biblical Perspectives on Evangelism: Living in a Three-Storied Universe
ISBN: 9780687412334 / Angielski / Miękka / 139 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this timely and provocative work, Walter Brueggemann applies his experience and skills in the area of biblical interpretation to the theme of evangelism. He argues for the importance of considering afresh how the Bible itself thinks and speaks about evangelism, how it enacts the dramatic claims of the "good news." Brueggemann here describes evangelism as a drama in three scenes, concerning (1) God's victory over the forces of chaos and death, (2) the announcement of that victory, and (3) its appropriation by those who hear the announcement. This same dramatic sequence, as he... In this timely and provocative work, Walter Brueggemann applies his experience and skills in the area of biblical interpretation to the theme of ev... |

"Everywhere in the world . . . the Christian Church finds itself on the way to rediscovering, re-evaluating and restating its marching order," says the author in the opening lines of this discussion of the problem of communication in the Church.

Communicating God's Word in a Complex World: God's Truth or Hocus Pocus?
ISBN: 9780742514478 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Communicating God's Word in a Complex World reaches out to the growing number of missionaries, pastors, Bible translators and teachers, mission and theological educators and students dealing with communicating the gospel. This is increasingly difficult in today's pluralist and global contexts. What was God's message, and how has spreading that message changed through the generations? The answer to that question requires a hermeneutical process that seeks to understand the biblical text and the context in which it was originally presented. R. Daniel Shaw and Charles Van Engen say that...

Evangelism among African American Presbyterians: Making Plain the Sacred Journey
ISBN: 9780761837732 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As Presbyterians, Lutherans, Methodists, Disciples of Christ, and other predominantly European-centered Christian denominations of North America seek to respond as a faith community to the increasingly dynamic ethnic and cultural diversity within our society, this book offers a sobering yet valuable perspective. By understanding the ministry of Christian evangelism as a construct that speaks of the power of divine transformation (personal and communal) and the embrace of a way of life, this work argues for a multi-variant approach that values the philosophical aspects of cultural differences,...
