Helping Men Take the First Step
Men need to start somewhere in their faith journey, but the first step of any expedition is
the hardest. A man's maturation of faith can be brought to a standstill without a proper
roadmap on how to navigate his spiritual journey. The initial act of stepping out in faith can be difficult, but it doesn't have to be intimidating. Why not start with some fundamental spiritual practices? Just like with family, friends, or your significant other, the investment of time and effort in your walk with Christ is an important aspect of growing and deepening the relationship. But how can men make simple, yet effective, strides in their faith?
Join author Vince Miller as he guides men on how to use practices like: memorizing and
meditating on Scripture, how to study the Bible, the power of prayer, journaling, and
quiet time in solitude to advance and strengthen their relationship with the Lord.
A vision to reimagine the Church entirely
In March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic revealed that the average American church needed to change. If you sense the previous century's model won't help your church thrive in today's context, you're not alone.
Many faith leaders believe the Church faces a unique opportunity to reimagine itself entirely. Join author Steve Pike in The Reimagined Church, as he diagnoses why church leaders feel stagnant and offers a principle-based approach to getting unstuck.
The Reimagined Church is a ministry innovator's field guide for reformatting their church to thrive in the complex cultural context of the 21st century. Drawing from the collective wisdom of global church leaders who've successfully navigated ministry in the wake of COVID-19, this book provides an optimistic framework and practical insights to help any existing church proactively adapt itself to join Jesus on His mission in their unique context.
How Can a Prayer Ministry Transform Your Church?
Whether you are part of your church's prayer ministry, or thinking about starting or joining a prayer ministry team, the Prayer Ministry Volunteer Handbook is for you
We are often very quick to say we will pray for someone when we hear they are going through tough times, but do we actually follow through with our promise to pray for them? How many times do we turn to prayer only in times of crisis, as a last resort, or simply to ask things of God?
We need to make prayer the first course of action, guiding all of our life decisions. We must challenge ourselves to move beyond the dinnertime and bedtime prayers and progress to a thoughtful conversation with Christ.
Join authors David and Kim Butts as they explore how a well-equipped church prayer ministry team can serve as a model and an encouragement to support the members of the congregation, and even the pastoral staff, in their prayer journeys. Discover how you can make your church a house of prayer for all believers.

Discern and care for The Church's invisible epidemic of mental health
...the Black Church is still lagging behind when it comes to mental health support. This is a
brilliant piece of work withpromise to provide help and facilitate healing for African-Americans
and the community-at-large.
Jameisha (Meisha) Brown, PhD(c), M.S., CHES, Health Minister
Mental health is rarely spoken of in African-American congregations. It's often whispered about
during prayer circles or kept behind a counselor's closed door. For many pastors, grappling with
the topic from the pulpit is either unthinkable or unnecessary.
Struggling with mental health still holds a stigma of shame for believers--one that can keep you
from admitting a problem even exists while your life falls apart.
With scenarios drawn from community stories and Biblical examples alike, Dr. Bill Reese
applies wisdom and compassion to tackle the complex issues of emotional and mental wellness
in the context of the church.
The church can be a safe place for those seeking mental health solutions--starting today
Using the true story of how one church grew from a tired remnant of 100 attendees to over 300 in a few short weeks, this book offers a growth strategy to help you transform your church.
Churches all across America are discovering that revitalization is a much more effective way to build church attendance and attract seekers. Written by Dr. Harry Fowler, an expert on church growth, The Revitalization of Southside Baptist Church has loads of practical ideas any pastor can use. The book also includes photos documenting the unprecedented growth Southside experienced as they breathed new life into a dying church.
