Previous Post – Missional Economics

-ViralHope Released & Thriving.  I have been really excited to see this project come together.  As one of the many contributors, I feel honoured to have my name attached to this powerful and challenging book.  Each chapter embodies a call to Gospel life rooted deeply in the soil of real communities.  You can order it on Amazon here or take advantage of the great sale on at Ecclesia Press, where you can buy 3 books for  $20.00 plus S&H or 10 books for $65.00 plus S&H.  This is the kind of book you are going to want to give copies away.  The Ecclesia Press sale is for this week only, so order now.

-ChurchMatters Interview on Missional Church:  I had the privilege of doing an interview with Mennonite Church Canada’s radio show & podcast, ChurchMatters.  While it aired on the radio yesterday, the podcast (which has more material than the radio interview) is available on iTunes here.  I was interviewed on the topic of missional church, specially looking at Little Flowers Community.  Let me know what you think.  I would also highly recommend scanning through their other interviews, as they have some excellent content.  Better yet, just subscribe!

-Upcoming Book Reviews: In the coming weeks I have a few book  reviews & author interview lined up for the blog.  A couple of titles I want to feature include Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove’s powerful and prophetic new title “The Wisdom of Stability: Rooting Faith in a Mobile Culture”, as well as “Living Gently in a Violent World: The Prophetic Witness of Weakness” by the unlikely pairing of Stanley Hauerwas & Jean Vanier.  Both books are powerful, practical and helpfully accessible.  Finally, “The Naked Anabaptist: The Bare Essentials of a Radical Faith” by Stuart Murray is now available.  I can hardly endorse a book more strongly than this one.  Check out Scot McKnight’s initial response to the book and the Facebook group here.

-Books Page Live: Speaking of books, at the top of this page you will see navigation button called “Books”.  After a lot of work, I have finally posted my “Recommended Reading” list with links to Amazon.com.  If you scroll over the titles you can see my brief comments on each book.  I will add titles occasionally, so keep checking back.  Remember, any book that you purchase through clicking on through this page will result in a percentage of support to us in our ministry.  What more could ask for?  Great books and supporting a missional community!
