Christians often misunderstand one another when they refer to the kingdom of God. They may ask: Is it here on earth? In our hearts? In our churches?" Over the years, best-selling author Howard Snyder has been helping pastors and church leaders understand kingdom terminology. Now he explains in eight models how the kingdom or reign of God has been and may be conceived. Snyder explains with biblical texts and illustrations from church history. If you are a pastor or church leader, you will find guidance for building new kingdom communities in your congregation as well as ways to relate kingdom theology to global crises with the environment and our economy.

Everywhere the church is rediscovering Jesus' call to live under God's rule. What the world needs, however, is not just greater kingdom awareness but more kingdom action. How can the church stabilize families, revitalize, neighborhoods, create just societies and a peaceful world? How can we hasten the day when the kingdoms of this world will become the kingdom of our Lord?

The Church gets into trouble whenever it thinks it is in the church business rather than the Kingdom business. In the church business, people are concerned with Kingdom activities, all human behavior and everything God has made.... Church people think about how to get people into the church; Kingdom people think about how to get the church into the world.

American Christians, weary of decades of entrenched partisan feuding, are increasingly distancing themselves from politics. Some, however, continue to turn toward the state and public policy to find solutions to the world's problems. The problem is that both responses allow a narrow vision of politics to determine the church's mission and ministries, which often ends up separating its commitment to personal faith from the pursuit of social justice--the King from the kingdom. Christians too easily forget that the church is inherently political, a community defined by its allegiance to a King, its citizenship in a new world, and its call to work alongside others in pursuit of a new way of life. The church needs a political vision that is more than blind acceptance or mere rejection of past models. It needs a positive vision that takes its cues about politics not from the nation-state but from another political reality: the kingdom of God. This book tells the stories of the visits of two researchers to five diverse congregations across the United States. From the megachurch energy of Rick Warren's Saddleback Church in California, to a young Emergent community in Minneapolis, to the politically active home of Martin Luther King in Atlanta, these stories illuminate the vastly different ways congregations understand and approach politics--and offer a glimpse of a new political imagination for today's church. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }

Is the kingdom of God related to the physical kingdom of Israel? A noble desire to search for the meaning of heavenly kingdom of God usually leaves many lost in realms of imagination. As a result, unfolding the nature of God and the expanse in which he exists becomes key to those who need to have this mystery unfolded. This book gives a coherent narrative of a fairly unique perspective and insight on the kingdom that unveils God's purpose with mankind. It has an exposition of its inception in the heavenly realms at creation, manifestation in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, conferral to the church, and ultimate possession as an eternal inheritance for the chosen. Throughout the book, the triune nature of the kingdom is pursued in the various models on earth that were used by God for mankind to have an appreciation of aspects in the heavenly realms. It is a great starting point for those who need to gain knowledge from simple and clear interpretation of fundamental scriptures that carry the hope of mankind.

In Equipping Christians for Kingdom Purpose in Their Work, Tom Lutz and Heidi Unruh offer advice to those who seek to influence the faith of people outside the church. Pastors, Christian educators, life coaches, workplace mentors, college professors, and any Christian who considers their vocation to be one of discipleship will find nourishment in this book. Few resources are designed for personal disciplers—those who connect with other believers on a personal basis with a deep interest in their spiritual growth. This book fills the gap. This one-of-a-kind resource shows how to disciple others in and for their work. Most “faith and work” books focus on pastors and church programs, or they speak directly to workers. But this resource comes to the aid of those who offer spiritual guidance to working Christians. This guide makes faith-and-work discipleship accessible to anyone who influences the faith of another. With short, readable chapters filled with case studies, examples, and practical resources, readers will learn how to equip others to fulfill their kingdom purpose in their work. Sample topics include: Principles for Effectively Connecting with Adult Learners Structure for One-on-One Discipleship Meetings Research on Vocational Discipleship and Kingdom-Centered Spiritual Maturity Various Leadership Models Scripture Passages on Being an Image-Bearer Selected Scriptures for Faith and Work Principles

Micro Kingdom written by Donald Dodge and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021 with Discipling (Christianity) categories.


Using a bibliographic methodology, this thesis is a theological and missiological defense for the microchurch model as a solution to the limitations of the prevalent Western attractional model to effectively live out Jesus command to be a community of disciples making disciples. The declining western model is proving insufficient in a post-Christian, post-Christendom world to fulfill the intended role of the church. And as more churches are continually planted, if the erroneous presuppositions responsible for the decline of the church’s efficacy are not amended, there will be no lasting change regardless of how much effort and money is invested. New paradigmatic models are needed to address the faulty presuppositions. The microchurch is one such model. Effectively defining and evaluating the microchurch requires a standard by which it is assessed. This begins with the identification of how mission and Kingdom were interpreted in the early church and how this interpretation changed when it was institutionalized in Christendom. This context then makes possible a theology of mission by which the attractional model and the microchurch model can be contrasted and evaluated. The research reveals that the diminishing attractional church is inadequate in its ability to fulfill the three ecclesial minimums of worship, community, and mission in a culture becoming less familiar with Christianity. In contrast, the relatively young western microchurch model is increasingly more effective in multiplying communities of worshiping disciples within their surrounding communities. As denominations and parachurch organizations invest countless dollars in new church planting models, the microchurch is a model worthy of consideration.
