Faith should be more than rituals and routines. It should move you, challenge you, and shape the way you live. That’s exactly what Pietism set out to do. Born in the quiet corners of 17th-century Europe, this movement turned stagnant religion into a dynamic force—one that put passion back into worship, purpose into belief, and power into the hands of everyday believers. Its impact still ripples through churches, communities, and hearts today. This isn’t just history—it’s the story of a movement that made faith personal. Pietists believed that Christianity wasn’t just about ...

In a time where leaders of reformations and local churches are being scrutinized for making normal mistakes, we have to ensure that our leaders are getting the necessary assistance, help, and guidance that they need to be effective in ministry.

Your church is perfectly tuned to get the results you are now getting. If you keep doing what you have been doing, you will keep getting what have been getting. If you change. . . Well, you might lose your job. It might be a big brouhaha. I would like to converse with you about how to change a church while keeping your job—and keeping the peace. I want to talk to you about introducing new music, a new small group strategy, and new technologies to help your church grow.

Bill Hybels spoke at North Point’s fifteen-year anniversary. He described North Point by saying it is the fastest movement in history. How did they do it? Doubling groups that are growing through hospitality are two key components. They are two components every church can use to reach their...

The story begins with a simple grain of rice: one grain on the first square of a chessboard, two on the second, four on the third, and so on. By the 64th square, the number is staggering—over 18 quintillion grains, more than the world could produce. This ancient tale of exponential growth captures the same principle that drives multiplying groups: small, consistent actions that, over time, result in extraordinary impact. In Multiplying Groups, Josh Hunt explores how this principle has fueled some of the most dynamic movements in church history. Drawing from the groundbreaking work of ...

You can Double Your Church in Five Years or Less by helping Sunday School teachers and small group leaders double every two years or less. Barry Posner did some research that revealed an interesting result of quality. People were 6 times as likely to talk about a business that they considered a 5 on a scale of 1 to 5 than they were to talk about businesses they rate as a 4. This is the power of Wow! There is a reason Jesus taught us to shock people with above and beyond, “second mile” service. It is in the second mile that we get people’s attention. It is in the second mile that ...

It breaks the barrier of traditional thinking as it reveals exactly what a disciple is, how one is made and how you can become one. Revealing certain principles that are generally not included in many people’s Christian learning, the author creates a guided path that systematically reveals how discipleship is the way Jesus chose to fulfill His highest calling.

Contending but Not Contentious is one young pastor’s perspective on when and how to fight. We do not merely fight against, but for, and this inheritance we have received from the previous generation is worthy of protecting.

Hear about old favorites, such as Augustine and Luther, and learn about the obscure, though equally influential Christians, such as Cocceius and Olevianus. This collection of short biographies details the lives of fifty-two professing believers who lived and died for Christ. Not sentimental or fictionalized, these accounts tell what Christians actually said and did during difficult times, and they prepare the listener to face opposition today.

"Looking Through Stained Glass Windows" by Cecilia Oliver Jones takes a critical look at instances where the Church falls short of its benevolent mission. Jones explores the dark side of some religious leaders who exploit their followers, turning a place of solace into a domain of control and manipulation. She sheds light on the characteristics of cult leaders who hide behind charismatic personas while ruthlessly preying on the vulnerable, leading to spiritual, financial, and emotional devastation.

What kind of bread did Christ offer to His disciples at the Last Supper? Why do Roman Catholics and the Orthodox disagree on how to bake bread? What is the significance of the symbolism of bread for Christian theology and praxis? This book addresses these and many other questions. Scholars and bakers, ...
