Formation For Transformation - An Approach To Renewing The Teaching Ministry Within The Church

by David, A. Sanchez, David A. Sanchez, Edith, Vi, Vilamajo Sanchis, Edith, Vi Vilamajo Sanchis e Sanchis Edith Vilamajo Sanchis

27,81€ + 10% CARD

 As teachers, we long for every Christian to become more like Christ in every way. We trust that teaching within the church will serve that purpose. However, what we offer is often reduced to teaching that is simply informative, individualistic, irrelevant for a believer''s daily life, and imparted only through specific activities and events. It seems that, in general, it is difficult to ensure that our teaching ministries produce profound transformation in people''s lives.The purpose of this book is to present various important pedagogical approaches that the church usually does not take into account and that will help us collaborate with the Holy Spirit in a believer''s process of transformation. Each chapter includes practical exercises, which will help us analyze and renew our teaching ministry. Another aim of this book is to encourage teachers, so that we ourselves develop a transformative relationship with God, which will undoubtedly have an impact on the people we serve.

Mission As Transformation - Learning From Catalysts

21,19€ + 10% CARD

 This book is the product of the first Stott-Bediako Forum, held in 2012 with the title "Portraits of Catalysts."

The subjects are from Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the USA. They are people of their time, and have had unprecedented experiences. They have had to carve out their own space and then fill it. The authors, with one exception, are from the same culture as their subject, and were all helped by John Stott. Well worth a read!

Towards An Asian Theology

by Yung Hwa Yung

30,46€ + 10% CARD

 This is a condensed version of the author''s seminal work, Mangoes or Bananas? Based on the premise that theology and mission are inseparable, the author applies four missiological criteria to representative examples of Protestant Asian writings to assess their adequacy as contextual theologies. The greatest problem with most of these theologies appears to be that, at heart, they have been domesticated by Western dualism and Enlightenment thought. Authentic Christian theologies will only emerge with the dual recovery of confidence in both gospel and culture within Asian Christianity.

What Does Love Have To Do With Leadership?

by Miller Mary Miller

23,84€ + 10% CARD

 The content of this book is based on research that examines the construct of love through multiple lenses, and particularly in relation to leadership that transforms. The author''s reasoning in contributing to the vast expanse of books written on the topic of leadership is to seek to examine some of the research concerning the idea of love as a chosen and deliberate aspect of leadership that is transforming. Transforming leadership theory is laden with value. Leadership theorists have identified the need to understand these values. What are the values chosen with deliberation that are inherent to this paradigm--leadership that is transformational? What does the research have to say, and why is an examination of the research necessary or significant? More specifically, what relevance does this research have for one''s own leadership behavior?

Faces Of Holistic Mission - Stories Of The Ocms Family

by Miller Mary Miller

30,46€ + 10% CARD

 There is a popular worship song that begins with the refrain "Look what the Lord has done, look what the Lord has done." This book does exactly that; it seeks to show what the Lord has done. Fifteen authors from five different continents identify what the Lord has indeed been doing, and continues to do, in their lives. They speak with passion, as each one seeks to bring glory to the Lord for his hand in their lives. Other than God''s grace, the one constant that flows throughout these narratives is that at one point in their journey each author pursued a research degree via Oxford Centre for Mission Studies (OCMS) in order to further their very individual calling. These are their stories.
