Rethinking church (365 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Why is it important to rethink the church? Today many leaders focus on how their ministries can be run more efficiently. But the foundational question, according to James Emery White, should be Why do we have this ministry? and then, Why do we do this ministry the way we do? Is it effective?	Rethinking the Church helps pastors and lay leaders work through questions that must be answered if a church is to rethink evangelism, discipleship, ministry, worship, community, and the structure of the church. Break old molds, check assumptions, and be sensitive, says White. He uses the language and aims of seeker-targeted churches but urges readers not to tie themselves to any model without understanding the individual purpose of their church. 	Now thoroughly revised and expanded, Rethinking the Church contains more emphasis and key material on how to move from rethinking to transition. White blends biblical reflection and hands-on experience and uses the early church as described in the Book of Acts as the ultimate example.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. ?Leeman?s work was influential in our church?s decision to move from multiservice to a single service.? ?Ryan Kelly, Pastor of Preaching, Desert Springs Church, Albuquerque, New Mexico Maybe you have been there: you?re running late to church, and you know it will be hard to find an empty seat. This is an all-too-frequent experience in a growing church. For churches experiencing this dilemma, a common solution is to add another service or location. This seems like a cost-effective fix. Besides, no one wants to turn away non-Christians. But is it the best option? Jonathan Leeman presents a series of biblical, theological, and pastoral arguments to help reorient our minds to a scriptural definition of church. He makes the case that maintaining a single assembly best follows the Bible, fulfills the Great Commission, and furthers our partnership with other churches. Makes the case that keeping presence and authority together best allow a church to protect the gospelOffers compelling alternatives to the multisite model for dealing with growing attendance other than simply building a bigger space, such as planting, revitalizing, learning to work with other churches, or encouraging attendees to attend a church closer to where they liveSets forth a biblical definition of church based on the words of Jesus and the New Testament modelFocuses on long-term gospel ministry rather than short-term logistical fixes.…
