It's time to break free from our Sunday-centric, formulaic versions of church and instead architect fresh kingdom ecosystems as an ancient yet new frontier for sustainable mission.The temptation for many church leaders is to take what's worked elsewhere and use it as a paint-by-number. Yet Jesus showed us a different way. Every word he spoke and everything he did utterly broke the molds, rules, and laws that people had created to confine God and his kingdom.Taylor McCall and Hugh Halter challenge us to trade in our formulas for the artistry of living as brave cities-kingdom ecosystems that embody the authentic good news of Jesus, where homes, reconciliation, discipleship, relationships, worship, enterprise, activism, and justice coalesce to form biblical community.This book won't tell you what to do. Instead, it will invite you to uncover the places where God is already at work, attune to God's vision for transformation, and craft beautiful kingdom environments that bravely demonstrate the love of God.

Leaders often bear the weight of the church on their shoulders. But have we made leadership into something it was never meant to be?Most of us are familiar with Atlas, the mythological Greek figure condemned to hold up the heavens. If you have ever been a pastor, no doubt you have felt something similar. Being "the leader" often feels like an overwhelming burden.In an era plagued by the fall of influential pastors, it's time to reconsider our fundamental understanding and application of leadership. The Atlas Factor sheds light on the tragic mistake of replacing the God-ordained headship of Jesus with human-made systems and presents a way to realign the body of Christ with its true Head. Only when we shift leadership onto Jesus' shoulders can we become the beautiful, joyful, Spirit-filled expression of the church God intended us to be.

In an age of hyperactivity, spiritual superficiality, and a desperate scramble for quick fixes, this book beckons us into deeper waters-a missional life with God. As those actively responding to Jesus' Great Commission, we often struggle to unite kingdom mission with knowing the King. Mission for God and intimacy with God can easily become compartmentalized and seem like competing jobs on our to-do list. In The Art of Missional Spirituality, experienced spiritual directors and church planters Jeremy and Monica Chambers break down this divide by sharing thirty-one practices designed to cultivate a vibrant and authentic spirituality that doesn't draw you away from your neighbors but propels you into the lives of others and the needs of your city.Drawing on Scripture, the wisdom of the Christian tradition, and the authors' own insights and experiences, this book will help you grow in your faith, discover fresh joy in living as a Jesus-follower, and become more fruitful in your everyday mission.

¿Happy Hour unpacks the theology of party and is full of practical ideas for making merriment a way of life and a way of mission.

How Can Great Leaders Become Great Leader-Makers? Seed It Out is a transformational leadership guide designed for Christian leaders seeking to follow in the footsteps of Jesus, raising up a new generation of leaders. Through a compelling blend of biblical wisdom and practical advice, this book challenges and equips readers to adopt a servant-hearted approach to leadership, just as Jesus did.Taking inspiration from the latent power within a seed, experienced pastor and marketplace leader Oscar Amisi encourages leaders to share their expertise and experience by intentionally sowing the seeds of leadership in others, creating a lasting legacy that honors God and benefits those around them.

In an ever-changing world, how can we learn from the past to discern the shape of mission today?In our contemporary culture, the mission of God can seem elusive and hard to define. We often focus on the present moment, losing sight of the epic story of God that has been unfolding through the ages. Michael Frost offers a compelling framework for understanding mission by drawing on the rich tapestry of Christian history and revealing how context shapes mission, just as a bottle shapes water. Through captivating storytelling and perceptive analysis, this book sheds light on how the shape of mission has changed over time, enabling us to learn from past successes and failures, and inspiring and equipping readers to engage in the mission of God in new and transformative ways.

WILL WE BECOME A SCANDAL TO THOSE WHO LOOK TO US AS LEADERS, OR WILL WE CHOOSE TO IMITATE THE SCANDALOUS WAY OF CHRIST?The fall of high-profile leaders has sadly become an epidemic, and although books and podcasts have sought to uncover the problem, they often fail to identify the root cause. In The Scandal of Leadership, JR Woodward offers a deeper diagnosis, outlining a more comprehensive understanding of power abuses in the church and the critical role of imitation. Drawing from Scripture and the scholarship of Walter Wink, René Girard, and William Stringfellow, as well as from positive examples of leaders such as Óscar Romero, this book offers a robust theology of the Powers--of Satan, the demonic, and the principalities and powers explored in the Bible. By unmasking the Powers of domination, Woodward seeks to help missional leaders practice a self-emptying spirituality that reshapes their desires and forms them into Christlike servants who join God's mission in the world.

What if, instead of remaining stuck in unfruitful patterns and systems, we could experience the personal, church, and organizational transformation we so desperately desire?The answer lies in Jesus' first words as he began his public ministry: "metanoia." This profound concept encompasses repentance as a radical paradigm shift and reorientation, inviting us to perceive the world through God's eyes and bringing transformation in our own lives, the organizations we lead, and the world around us.In these pages, Alan Hirsch and Rob Kelly bring together their decades of experience helping countless organizational leaders to implement deep and significant change. Combining a theologically robust understanding of metanoia, along with best thinking from the social sciences, this book equips individuals and organizations to serve courageously and effectively in a complex and uncertain world.

IS OUR GOAL TO RAISE RELIGIOUS KIDS, OR ARE WE HOPING FOR SOMETHING MORE?Our kids are growing up in a mass church exodus. A life attending church and following religious rules isn't big enough to hold their attention-and why should it be? Do we want our kids to just go to church, or do we want them to truly follow Jesus? As Christian parents, most of us long for our children to know the God who loves them and who is able to work powerfully in their lives and in the lives of those around them.Missional leader and father Hugh Halter invites your family to live a bigger story-a story with the mission of God at its heart. With key tools and practical advice gleaned from Hugh's own parenting journey, Righteous Brood equips parents at all stages-and with all kinds of challenges-to nurture disciples of Jesus who live out his mission in the world.

OUR CHURCHES NEED REJESUSING LIKE NEVER BEFORE.∩╗┐We live in a fractured and divided world. Nationalism and political extremism are rife in the church, scandals involving well-known Christian leaders are on the rise, and ideologies and idolatries abound. Badge and brand are espoused more than servanthood and sacrificial love.In this timely revised and updated edition, Frost and Hirsch get to the root of these issues, exposing the many ways we have formed Jesus in our own image and co-opted him for our own agendas. ReJesus is a clarion call to recenter our lives on Christ so that we might become a people who look, act, think, and sound like Jesus.Now more than ever, our world needs a church remade in our Founder''s image.

FEELING ALONE, ISOLATED, OVERWHELMED, OR STUCK? We live in a world that is uncertain, unsettled, and constantly moving; and the individualism, emotional immaturity, and division of our society have permeated many of our churches and leadership structures-with the body of Christ declining and ineffective as a result. For far too long, the Western church has relied upon solo leaders to meet these challenges, but in recent years, many prominent leaders and ministries have unraveled before us. IN A COMPLEX AND CHANGING WORLD, WHAT KIND OF LEADERS MUST WE BE? Drawing from biblical principles, leadership theory, and more than twenty years of coaching leaders and teams, Bryan D. Sims reveals a Christ-centered vision for shared leadership that will not only bring leaders a greater sense of joy and camaraderie but is also essential if the church is to adapt to the challenges we face and become all God has called us to be.
