This is an exciting, informed, thoughtful, and ground-breaking book on one of the most vital--and threatening--issues facing the contemporary church. Father Burrows seeks effectively to show that the older forms of church and clerical life, developed in the West, are both irrelevant and stultifying when transferred in to the Third World--and that, as a consequence, new forms of church and clerical life, forms still within the Catholic heritage to which he affirms, must be developed if the church is long to survive in that new world. Frankly admitting that his suggestions are only the beginning and by no means final, Burrows nevertheless makes crystal-clear the need for more open attitudes towards the forms of church and the need for more open attitudes towards the forms of church and clergy if the newer churches are to become genuinely creative forces in the Third World rather than lingering embassies from the First World. I found the work exceedingly stimulating, the approach fresh and open, and his suggestions more than worthy of careful thought by all those concerned with the Church in a global context. -Langdon Gilkey, Shailer Mathews Professor of Theology, University of Chicago Divinity School New Ministries deals with topics of vital concern for the Christian churches and it does so in a way that will catch and keep the reader's interest. Burrows handles this rather explosive topic with personal sensitivity and with scholarly care. -Paul F. Knitter, Professor of Theology, Xavier

There is no shortage of books these days on new ways of "doing church." New church models have been both warmly embraced and roundly criticized. What are church leaders and others concerned about the state of the church to make of all this? Does the Bible prescribe a standard model for doing church? Or is there freedom within certain guidelines? In A New Kind of Church, respected church consultant Aubrey Malphurs addresses these important questions and suggests that there is room for new ways of doing ministry while being true to Scripture. In the process, he offers a theological and interpretive framework for evaluating any church model, new or old. He also offers suggestions for implementing change in the local church.

This book is a journey to the land of faith. That land is our own planet, ablaze with the fire Jesus Christ came to set here twenty centuries ago. For most of those centuries, Christianity was something of a provincial phenomenon. It had won the West, then its American excrescences, and seemed to be happy with that. Islam, Buddhism, and the religions of India could go right ahead and divide up the soul of the other continents. To be sure, the church’s missionary thrust never ceased driving it out beyond bounds that were too narrow. But it did so in peaks and valleys, and self-complacency tricked us back into the ghetto more than once. This is a book of living witness. It teems with the witness of the new countries, the “young churches” that live the gospel today in the Third World, in another culture, and in a situation of poverty as their daily lot. The word of God is a critique of every human society. And so the activity of the Spirit among these Christians of the church resurgent in Africa, Asia, and Latin America is a critique of the way we of the West understand that word—and live it. Time was when we could magnanimously welcome Third World Christians’ “contribution.” Those days are gone forever. Today we have to be willing to be jostled in our certitudes. And we have to be willing to change our attitudes and behavior.

Entering the 21st Century, one of the most pressing issues for Christian churches is to have a clear understanding of who they are and what they are about! For churches in 'western' contexts, this becomes critical as western society becomes increasingly 'post-Christian' in nature. Putting it another way, we need to redefine ministry for a 21st Century context. The vestigial image of the harmless old vicar cycling around an English village has to go! Even contemporary responses that created 'contemporary' churches that are still fruitful must be examined afresh. New visions need to be created and endorsed. We are at a new frontier, or rather a set of new frontiers, as unprecedented changes press in on the church from all sides. In 2012, a small conference of practising ministers who are also academics and ministry students came together at Harvest Bible College, Melbourne, to wrestle with some of the issues of the new frontiers for Christian ministry. They started a conversation, addressing questions that included developments in women's ministry, the concept of ordination, training ministers online and relating emotional intelligence to ministry 'burnout.' Together they discussed the developing focus of New Zealand Pentecostal churches as they seek to engage with their communities and shared ideas about reaching 'Aussies' in creative new ways. A group of masters level students contributed an insightful report on a study tour of effective ministries in the US, UK and China. The conference wrestled with issues of leadership and the place of teaching in the local church. This book is the result of their deliberations. New Frontiers contains more than theory! On the other hand, the insights contained here are also genuinely research-based, not just 'tips from what I learned in practice'. This means that this book contains well-thought-through and workable insights for ministry. This book will help ministers and trainee ministers engage with some of the real theological and practical questions they cannot avoid if they desire to make a lasting and effective impact. These authors have credibility. They are pastoring significant churches, pioneering new ways of reaching ordinary people who couldn't care less about God, supporting serving ministers to continue in lifelong ministry, and developing fresh modes of training the next generation of ministers and leaders. They are actively engaged in research into ministry practice! This book will certainly stimulate both your thinking and praxis if you are, or want to be, involved in effective Christian ministry. Dr Jon Newton is an ordained Pentecostal minister with extensive experience in church planting, pastoral teams, Christian schools, missions, ministry, and Bible college training. His doctoral thesis at Deakin University was on 'Postmodernism, Christianity and the Book of Revelation'. He is senior minister of Oasis Church, and Head of Research and Dean of Postgraduate Studies at Harvest Bible College, Melbourne. Jon's wife Judy is also a pastor, teacher and professional counsellor, and they have five adult children.

Our nation used to look at violence, poverty, and gentrification and assign those problems to urban centers. Today, these issues concern the suburbs, too. The Christian community is responding to this reality. Churches and parachurch ministries are actively working to transform lives and restore communities throughout the city and suburbs. In A Heart for the Community: New Models for Urban and Suburban Ministry, you will be challenged by a collection of voices seeking community renewal. These individuals are involved in creative church planting initiatives, and they are serving the growing Hispanic and Muslim populations. Additional endeavors include serving racially changing communities, economic development strategies, and more. As anyone who has been in ministry for any length of time can attest, tackling some of the most challenging issues of our times is no mere academic exercise. The voices within these pages write from experience and offer workable, vibrant models of ministry that make a difference.

A revolutionary cure! This book is a revolutionary cure! In its preface, author Z.T. Fomum says these are messages taught at a time when the church was registering an increasing number of young ministers. Since the ministry depends on the quality of ministers who are available to the Lord, it was a question of presenting to the young ministers, in the light of the Scriptures, ways and means for the foundation of a glorious ministry, by equally glorious ministers, radically separated from self and sin, and totally surrendered or given to the Lord. This is the purpose for which this book is published. It is an outline of the fundamental principles for ministry in perfect holiness and from a position of renunciation - a revolutionary cure!
