Roy Hession - Good News for Bad People (bc1-118) The message which this book proclaims, Good News for Bad People , is not a joke, nor even a snappy Christian title; it is serious theology, gospel theology.

Eddie Gibbs & Ian Coffey - Church Next (bc1-274) Church has always been potentially just one generation away from extinction. But now, with a generation of under-thirty-five-year-olds turning away from institutional expressions of Christianity, churches in the West must recognise that they face a challenge that is more urgent and radical than it has been for many generations. This penetrating book identifies some of the major storm-centres through which churches must navigate, not in order to return to a previously more tranquil world, but to enter an entirely new one. It looks at mission, church structures, developing new leaders and mentoring worship, spirituality and evangelism, and asks how our ministry must change in order to serve a new generation of Christians. Excellent condition. 254 pages, published by Inter Varsity Press 2001. £2.75. p&p £1.43. Multiple purchases will result in p&p savings. |
