Key volunteers. Some of his best leaders and friends. And that’s exactly how he wants it to be.
When Jesus gave his disciples the Great Commission, he revealed that the key for reaching the world with the gospel is found in sending, not gathering. Though many churches focus time and energy on attracting people and counting numbers, the real mission of the church isn’t how many people you can gather. It’s about training up disciples and then sending them out. The true measure of success for a church should be its sending capacity, not its seating capacity.
But there is a cost to this. To see ministry multiply, we must release the seeds God has placed in our hands. And to do that, we must ask ourselves whether we are concerned more with building our kingdom or God’s.
In Gaining By Losing, J.D. Greear unpacks ten plumb lines that you can use to reorient your church’s priorities around God’s mission to reach a lost world. The good news is that you don’t need to choose between gathering or sending. Effective churches can, and must, do both.

African AmericansUrban Apologetics examines the legitimate issues that Black communities have with Western Christianity and shows how the gospel of Jesus Christ–rather than popular, socioreligious alternatives–restores our identity.
African Americans have long confronted the challenge of dignity destruction caused by white supremacy. While many have found meaning and restoration of dignity in the black church, others have found it in ethnocentric socioreligious groups and philosophies.
These ideologies have grown and developed deep traction in the black community and beyond. Revisionist history, conspiracy theories, and misinformation about Jesus and Christianity are the order of the day. Many young African Americans are disinterested in Christianity and others are leaving the church in search of what these false religious ideas appear to offer, a spirituality more indigenous to their history and ethnicity.
Edited by Dr. Eric Mason and featuring a top-notch lineup of contributors, Urban Apologetics is the first book focused entirely on cults, religious groups, and ethnocentric ideologies prevalent in the black community. The book is divided into three main parts:
- Discussions on the unique context for urban apologetics so that you can better understand the cultural arguments against Christianity among the Black community.
- Detailed information on cults, religious groups, and ethnic identity groups that many urban evangelists encounter–such as the Nation of Islam, Kemetic spirituality, African mysticism, Hebrew Israelites, Black nationalism, and atheism.
- Specific tools for urban apologetics and community outreach.
Ultimately, Urban Apologetics applies the gospel to black identity to show that Jesus is the only one who can restore it. This is an essential resource to equip those doing the work of ministry and apology in urban communities with the best available information.

Could sharing your faith be the secret to developing your spiritual maturity?
For many followers of Jesus, discipleship means doing certain things to deepen our connection with Jesus Christ. But our spiritual growth checklists are often disconnected from the mission of reaching a lost world with the gospel message.
Taking a holistic approach that unites evangelism and discipleship, Kevin and Sherry Harney demonstrate how God’s plan for our spiritual growth is intimately connected to his mission to the world.
In Organic Disciples, the couple lead ordinary followers of Jesus through seven markers of spiritual maturity, showing how simple shifts in our Bible reading, prayer, community life, giving, service, and other biblical practices can connect us with God’s work of reaching people with his love. You’ll learn:
- Why true spiritual maturity will always lead believers outward to engage the world with the good news and truth of Jesus.
- How to overcome the common roadblocks and false narratives that stand in the way of spiritual maturity.
- How to design a personal pathway of growth to be more like Jesus in character and mission.
Along with the Organic Disciples audiobook, churches and individuals can utilize a free, self-directed online tool at OrganicOutreach.com to help each person identify where they are in their growth journey.
Also look for eight-session small group curriculum–Organic Disciples Study Guide (9780310139089)–to take congregations and Christians deeper on this journey.

The Sacred Overlap communicates a refreshing vision that embraces tension and shows us how to live in radical loveThe widening of political, racial, generational, and religious differences leads too often to an “us vs. them” mentality. The Sacred Overlap communicates a refreshing vision that embraces tension and shows us how to live in radical love and faithfulness between the extremes that isolate and divide people.
The gospels display how Jesus was committed to crossing the either/or waters of the cultural and societal wars of his day. His miracles and parables often broke or ignored religious and political lines that seemed all important. He comforted the disturbed and disturbed the comfortable.
Using Jesus’ example, J. R. Briggs offers a fresh and relevant understanding of evangelism and discipleship in our present time of extreme polarization. Without sacrificing biblical integrity, The Sacred Overlap is a joyful exploration of the complexity of life in the peace of Christ. With careful discernment, Briggs:
- Shares creative ways to engage with God’s mission of ministering to those who are intrigued by Jesus but turned off by church.
- Explores what it means to be joyful in the midst of heart-wrenching pain and earthly suffering.
- Models what it means to maintain a posture of convicted civility which emphasizes both grace and truth.
The Sacred Overlap helps listeners see how Christians are called to live with their feet firmly planted in two different worlds–in both heaven and earth–living naturally with both the sacred and the ordinary. Only then can a Christian be a faithful witness and disciple of Jesus.

Yet many Christians still rely on cookie-cutter approaches to evangelism and apologetics. Most of these methods assume that people are open, interested, and needy for spiritual insight when increasingly most people are not. The urgent need, then, is the capacity to persuade–to make a convincing case for the gospel to people who are not interested in it.
In his magnum opus, Os Guinness offers a comprehensive presentation of the art and power of creative persuasion. Christians have often relied on proclaiming and preaching, protesting and picketing but are strikingly weak in persuasion–the ability to talk to people who are closed to what is being said. Actual persuasion requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach. Guinness notes, “Jesus never spoke to two people the same way, and neither should we.”
Following the tradition of Erasmus, Pascal, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, Malcolm Muggeridge, and Peter Berger, Guinness demonstrates how apologetic persuasion requires both the rational and the imaginative. Persuasion is subversive, turning the tables on listeners’ assumptions to surprise them with signals of transcendence and the credibility of the gospel.
This book is the fruit of forty years of thinking, honed in countless talks and discussions at many of the leading universities and intellectual centers of the world. Discover afresh the persuasive power of Christian witness from one of the leading apologists and thinkers of the era.

Though many today accuse Christianity of being a white, imperialistic religion, it is actually the source for cherished Western ideals of racial and gender equality. In More Than a White Man’s Religion, author and speaker Abdu Murray shares stories from the Bible and his own experiences as a global apologist, a member of an ethnic minority, a son of immigrants, and a former Muslim to show that the gospel message provides dignity and liberty to non-whites and women.
More Than a White Man’s Religion reveals:
- The ethnically diverse roots of biblical stories and passages that inspired some of the greatest social reforms in history
- How challenging and sometimes confusing Bible passages and stories can be best understood to champion equality for ethnically diverse people and women
- Ways believers can bring real and lasting change to our culture’s pervasive racial, ethnic, and gender equality issues by following Jesus’ and his followers’ examples
Without overlooking the places where Christianity has failed to live up to its own ideals, Murray challenges the myth that Christianity is an oppressive, Western religion and shows believers how to better fulfill their God-given mandate to uphold the dignity of every human being.
Tackling head-on one of the most serious challenges to the Christian faith in our multicultural age, More Than a White Man’s Religion demonstrates how the gospel can inspire positive change for modern culture.

- frames evangelism as a human rights issue,
- explains why secularism lacks the foundation to ground human rights,
- gives evidence for the existence of the human soul, and
- describes how the Bible has shaped the modern world.

AND helps Christian leaders recognize the best in different church models and see how to incorporate these values into a cohesive church movement.
By the numbers, the American church enjoys the resources to profoundly impact the Kingdom. But despite the rapid growth of these evangelical movements, the church in the West is in decline. A growing schism has emerged between the movement with a strong emphasis on attracting people and the more missional communities that focus on releasing people into ministry.
Church resource specialists Hugh Halter and Matt Smay have been observing these different church models, and they challenge the idea that churches have to choose between them—between the attractional and missional approaches to ministry.
With professional insight and practical advice, Halter and Smay dial in on how to bring together the very best of the attractional AND missional models for church ministry by exploring:
- The balance between gathering a community together AND scattering them into the world.
- The harmony between centralization AND decentralization in church structure.
- The mindset necessary to invest in both the traditional AND the innovative.
- The drive to maintain both a vision for the future AND a depth of community for the present.
As churches begin to develop these ANDs, they will be better positioned to influence the world according to the design of God instead of the whims of the people or the pride associated with production.

The result is a strikingly new and different portrait of Jesus of Nazareth, a Jesus for the non-religious.
Spong challenges much of the traditional understanding, from the tale of Jesus’ miraculous birth to the account of his cosmic ascension into the sky. He questions the historicity of the ideas that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, that he had twelve disciples, or that the miracle stories were ever meant to be descriptions of supernatural events. He also speaks directly to those critics of Christianity who call God a “delusion” and who describe how Christianity has become evil and destructive.
Spong invites his readers to look at Jesus through the lens of both the Jewish scriptures and the liturgical life of the first century synagogue. He proposes a new way of understanding the divinity of Christ as the ultimate dimension of a fulfilled humanity. Jesus for the Non-Religious may be the book that finally brings the pious and the secular into a meaningful dialogue, opening the door to a living Christianity in the post-Christian world.

As the Pentecostal/charismatic movement continues to grow, so does the need for solid theological resources for its members. While there are many volumes of systematic theology available, very few are written from a distinctly charismatic perspective. This book seeks to meet that need.
 
Author and professor of theology Dr. Larry Hart treats each of the traditional categories—revelation, God, creation, humanity, sin, Christ, salvation, the church, and last things—from a both a Pentecostal and charismatic perspective.
 
In Truth Aflame, Dr. Hart shows you:
 
- other theological viewpoints but does not get bogged down in analysis and rebuttal.
- bridges of understanding to those evangelicals outside the charismatic tradition.
- An understanding of systematic theology as the process of taking what the Bible teaches and relating it to contemporary questions and knowledge.
 
Clear, succinct, and readable, Truth Aflame is well-suited not only for students, but for anyone desiring a greater understanding of Pentecostal/charismatic theology.

InCalvinist theology has been debated and promoted for centuries. But is it a theology that should last? Roger Olson suggests that Calvinism, also commonly known as Reformed theology, holds an unwarranted place in our list of accepted theologies. In Against Calvinism, readers will find scholarly arguments explaining why Calvinist theology is incorrect and how it affects God’s reputation. Olson draws on a variety of sources, including Scripture, reason, tradition, and experience, to support his critique of Calvinism and the more historically rich, biblically faithful alternative theologies he proposes.Addressing what many evangelical Christians are concerned about today—so-called “new Calvinism,” a movement embraced by a generation labeled as “young, restless, Reformed” —Against Calvinism is the only book of its kind to offer objections from a non-Calvinist perspective to the current wave of Calvinism among Christian youth. As a companion to Michael Horton’s For Calvinism, readers will be able to compare contrasting perspectives and form their own opinions on the merits and weaknesses of Calvinism.

Unlike a traditional audiobook’s direct narration of a book’s text, Searching for God: Audio Lectures include high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources.
The average person today may hold to a wide variety of beliefs about religion and Christianity, including:
- Good people go to heaven; bad people end up in hell.
- All religions are basically the same.
- It’s about rules.
- It’s about controlling people.
- No religion can be the only way to God or spirituality.
In short, religion is an area of much confusion. Searching for God: Audio Lectures, narrated by filmmaker Brandon McGuire and featuring top Christian thinkers and apologists, explores questions such as: What is Christianity? What are some of the ideas that have influenced the way people think about it? And is there any evidence for God?
Most significantly, Searching for God: Audio Lectures examines the central event in the Christian story, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection is a historical claim, testable by evidence. So how credible is it? McGuire interviews everyday people alongside seasoned Christian scholars in making a case for Christianity. Featured scholars include Lee Strobel, William Lane Craig, Gary Habermas, J. Warner Wallace, Nabeel Qureshi, Paul Copan, and many more.
Searching for God: Audio Lectures feature the author’s expert teaching and is an ideal resource for traditional students, students in distance and online-learning courses, and self-learners, wanting to better understand Christian theology.
