2019 World Magazine Book of the Year Short List 2019 The Gospel Coalition Book Award 2019 Send Institute's Top Ten Church Planting Related Books of 2019 Kevin DeYoung's Top 10 Books of 2019 Jesus loves small, insignificant places. In recent years, Christian ministries have increasingly prioritized urban areas. Big cities and suburbs are considered more strategic, more influential, and more desirable places to live and work. After all, they're the centers for culture, arts, and education. More and more people are leaving small places and moving to big ones. As a ministry strategy, focusing on big places makes sense. But the gospel of Jesus is often unstrategic. In this book, pastor Stephen Witmer lays out an integrated theological vision for small-place ministry. Filled with helpful information about small places and with stories and practical advice from his own ministry, Witmer's book offers a compelling, comprehensive vision for small-place ministry today. Jesus loves small places, and when we care deeply about them and invest in them over time, our ministry becomes a unique picture of the gospel—one that the world badly needs to see.

Small town life is quite different from life in a big city. There is not as much traffic. People recognize each other at the grocery store. Local sporting events carry a different cultural weight, and it may not be out of the ordinary to wait behind a tractor or get used to the smell of a nearby factory. These communities are unique, and pastoring here is an extraordinary task. Ronnie Martin and Donnie Griggs are well-aware of this reality. In Pastoring Small Towns, their hope is to equip pastors and ministry leaders to take on the different nuances that come with pastoring smaller communities. They point out the cultural realities of these places and give pastors the tools to effectively engage their people with the Gospel.

This book is about standing on the Word of God and building a relationship with God and not with man. This book should teach you to respect the calling of a shepherd of God, but not to worship that shepherd. You need to order your steps by God and not man. We all should respect the Shepherd of God, and want the very best for them but we should not worship them as gods. Love God first and the rest will follow.

Small Town Mission is a practical guide for gospel-centered mission in small towns. If you haven't noticed, people who live in small towns have limited options for restaurants, shopping, and books about mission. Small towns desperately need normal, everyday people like farmers, factory workers, teachers, secretaries, and small business owners who think and act like missionaries to reach their friends, neighbors, co-workers, and extended families for Christ. This book aims to help local churches in small towns do that. After all, mission isn't just something that must be prioritized globally and in big cities; it must also be prioritized locally and in small towns.

Ministry in a small town or rural context is challenging. The minister and his or her family live in a fishbowl, with every aspect of life under constant scrutiny. In addition, few seminaries or Christian colleges and universities offer courses preparing people for small-town ministry. Throw in limited resources and small-town politics, and you might begin to understand the struggle of Ben Wright, minister in Madison, Montana. In a last-ditch effort to find help before he quits ministry altogether, Ben solicits the advice of another minister, the aged and experienced Kain Hoddis. Ben and Kain undertake a journey of discovery as together they explore the joys and struggles of small-town ministry.

This is a story of transformation. It is a story of evangelism, discipleship and church planting. It is a story of reaching the nations of the world with the gospel. It is an exciting story. In 1970 the Prescott Foursquare Church in Arizona was struggling. It had been morally violated and broken. It was a small abused congregation. At that time, Prescott was a rural town of about 17,000 persons in northwestern Arizona. Wayman Mitchell took the pastorate of the Prescott Foursquare Church in January. The addition of his family increased the size of the congregation to about two-dozen persons. From this small congregation in a small rural community God has raised a movement that has impacted the world. The Christian Fellowship Ministries (CFM), as it is now called, has birthed over twenty-two hundred churches located in one hundred and sixteen nations of the world. This story is meaningful to layman and minister alike. It is meaningful for the broader Christian community. This story tells how God can use common men and women and the common things of humanity to minister in the regions beyond.America in the 1970s was experiencing the Jesus People Movement (JPM). That movement changed America and impacted much of the western world. Principles from that movement became part of the CFM. The language of transformation was common to the Jesus people. When witnessing, they commonly cited Romans 12:1-2. The Prescott ministry picked up the importance of transformation for individuals and the church.The Great Commission also stirred Jesus people. There was urgency about wining the world to Jesus The biblical and theological foundation for evangelism, discipleship and church planting of the Christian Fellowship Ministry starts with this commission found in Matthew 28:16-20. The ministry of the CFM was not the plan of a man or group of people. It was by trial and error, a decision here and a decision there, and out of some things that seemed to work that the ministry of the CFM evolved. It was not the discovery of a new doctrine or the rediscovery of an old one. It was not the implementation of a program that transformed the CFM. It was the discovery of what God was doing and implementing that in the Prescott church. The deeper discovery was that God was restoring the dignity of the local church. The indigenous church principle and the making of disciples propelled the mission forward.This book is intended to provide an example of what God can do with people who simply try and follow God. Based on biblical and Christian principles it is intended to inspire persons to the work of God. And it is intended to inspire ministers to the possibilities of God when faced with the impossibilities of the world.This story uncovers the core elements that led a broken church out of brokenness to spiritual health and world impact. This is not a history, formula for revival, or step-by-step guide for church growth. It is an example of what God can do with a common people who seek to faithfully obey God.

Often, we look to a huge mega-church in one of the metropolitan areas to find the "formula" for growth and success. But God is not limited to such places. In fact, there are great treasures to be found in other places-remote, obscure, rural places-where the great God of the universe is just as apt to do "great and mighty things." One of the lies that Satan tells pastors is that they cannot accomplish great things in a small area, but that they must move on to some large metropolitan area to fulfill their ministry. Pastor Virgil Amundson's book, "Called to be Faithful," thoroughly debunks that myth. Shell Lake Full Gospel Church began in 1969 as a Pentecostal congregation of about a dozen people in a town with a population of under 1,000. Today it is touching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This small-town church has become a powerful lighthouse to northwest Wisconsin and the world and now supports over 60 missionaries and has given as much as a half a million dollars to missions in one year. "Called to be Faithful" is an absorbing story of the highs and the lows of growing a great church in a small community. Pastor Amundson will be the first to tell you that what has been accomplished is only because of the grace of God, but there are valuable lessons to be learned here about cooperating with God's grace and being flexible enough to flow with what God is doing in the various seasons of life and ministry. Enjoy this collection of a lifetime of memories from a man who has personally experienced the grace of God in the building of a great local church for God.

It's one thing to market cars and deodorant and hamburgers. It's another thing, says Doug Webster, to market Jesus and the gospel. Standing up to a spate of books and seminars that urge churches to model their mission on Madison Avenue methods, Webster sounds an urgently needed wake-up alarm. Selling Jesus is a hard-hitting book that shows how Jesus is more than a product to be hawked, how seekers are more than a matter of meeting "felt needs." But Selling Jesus doesn't merely challenge. It moves beyond penetrating criticism to the next step, suggesting faithful and powerful alternatives to marketing the church. Selling Jesus is a necessary book for those who are beginning to wonder if evangelism and missions really aren't synonymous with product promotion.

Written to provide primary source material for the cultural and religious history of the region, the book is also a frank description of how a minister and his family endured the public and private pressures of the ministerial calling. Effective as a preacher and controversial as a leader, Dr. Moody is also exceptionally skilled as a writer, as this book will demonstrate. You will laugh and cry as you read his narrative of six years in the ministry.
