Joining in with the Spirit
Author: Kirsteen Kim
Publisher: Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd
ISBN: 0334046084
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
Joining in with the Spirit makes the connection between mission as the work of mission agencies overseas and mission as the activity of a local church. It shows how, through the global flows of scholarship, missionary movements and migration, mission initiatives in different parts of the world impinge on the churches in Britain, which are but part of a world church. Joining in with the Spirit is an accessible introduction to mission studies - the history, theology and issues of mission, which is up-to-date and supported by contemporary scholarship. It also offers a theological framework for mission, which applies both globally and locally, to help the reader discern the movement of the Spirit of Christ among the many other spirits of this world. This text illustrates the impact of the 1910 Edinburgh world missionary conference and shows how the churches in Britain as a part of a much wider movement of the Spirit of Christ that is world Christianity.

What Is the Mission of the Church?
Author: Kevin DeYoung
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 143352693X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Social justice and mission are hot topics today: there's a wonderful resurgence of motivated Christians passionate about spreading the gospel and caring for the needs of others. But in our zeal to get sharing and serving, many are unclear on gospel and mission. Yes, we are called to spend ourselves for the sake of others, but what is the church's unique priority as it engages the world? DeYoung and Gilbert write to help Christians "articulate and live out their views on the mission of the church in ways that are theologically faithful, exegetically careful, and personally sustainable." Looking at the Bible's teaching on evangelism, social justice, and shalom, they explore the what, why, and how of the church's mission. From defining "mission", to examining key passages on social justice and their application, to setting our efforts in the context of God's rule, DeYoung and Gilbert bring a wise, studied perspective to the missional conversation. Readers in all spheres of ministry will grow in their understanding of the mission of the church and gain a renewed sense of urgency for Jesus' call to preach the Word and make disciples.

Transmitting the Spirit in Missions
Author: Amos Jimmy Markin
Publisher: Wipf and Stock
ISBN: 9781532662430
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Transmitting the Spirit in Missions: The History and Growth of the Church of Pentecost discourses on how Pentecostalism in general has been involved in the current growth, mission, and changing face of global Christianity. It argues that African Pentecostals particularly are an integral part of the global expansion of Christianity in this century. Specifically, this book engages the history and growth of the Church of Pentecost, an African Pentecostal denomination from Ghana, to demonstrate how African Pentecostals have taken their spirituality into their own hands and planted churches in their home country, as well as other parts of the globe. The focus of this book is that African Pentecostals have achieved this feat through the experiential power and reliance of the Holy Spirit and the indigenous factor. The specific highlight is that this book is an updated analysis of the history, growth, and missions of the Church of Pentecost. Although this work is transformed from a PhD thesis, the content is presented accessibly to both the academia and general church populace, both pastors and the laity. ""The saying that 'a man and his message are the same' finds its confirmation in Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin and this amazing book. As an apostle and seasoned evangelist who has been involved with missionary work, he understands that it is not enough just to go around preaching the gospel. One needs to transfer the passion, content, and dunamis undergirding the work of missions to others, to both the present and future generations. This, Dr. Markin has brilliantly done in this masterpiece."" --Michael Ntumy, The Church of Pentecost, Director, Pentecost Literary Works, Missionary, Germany ""This is indeed a remarkable effort, demonstrating how insiders see and understand the factors underlying the continuous growth and expansion of the Church of Pentecost as an indigenous global church. An excellent compendium to earlier works."" --Emmanuel Kingsley Larbi, Founder and Chancellor of Regent University College of Science and Technology, Ghana ""Dr. Markin's book, Transmitting the Spirit in Missions, deserves serious and widespread attention as a momentous achievement in Pentecostal missions history in Africa, particularly as it relates to Ghanaian Pentecostalism. . . . This is an impressively thorough treatment of the history of how the Church of Pentecost defied all challenges of schisms and acrimonies in a very delicate colonial era and grew to become one of the major Christian denominations in the world. Anyone interested in Pentecostal missions history in Ghana cannot afford to ignore this important work."" --Lord Elorm Donkor, Principal, Birmingham Christian College, Birmingham, UK ""In this book, Dr. Jimmy Markin argues that the missions abroad of the Church of Pentecost . . . has a deliberate intention for reverse mission. He contends that as a typical example of a Pentecostal church in this era, the Church of Pentecost moves beyond translating the message to transmitting the Spirit in its global missionary endeavors. This book will open your mind to the debate on reverse missions."" --Opoku Onyinah, Chairman, The Church of Pentecost, Accra, Ghana Amos Jimmy Markin is an apostle of the Church of Pentecost and its evangelism director. Markin is a lecturer at the Pentecost Theological Seminary and a regular resource person at conventions and conferences in his native country, Ghana, and abroad. His passion in ministry includes intercessory prayer, evangelism, discipleship, and leadership empowerment. He takes delight in preaching the gospel of Jesus. Markin has been in the service of the Lord Jesus as a minister of the Church of Pentecost since 1991. His twenty-seven-year ministerial journey has taken him to many communities across Ghana and many countries around the globe. He currently lives in Accra, Ghana, and is married to Mrs. Mavis Markin, with whom they are blessed with four biological children: Loretta, Jeshurun, Cor

Spirit Walk (Special Edition)
Author: Steve Smith
Publisher: William Carey Publishing
ISBN: 1645082288
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The Holy Spirit is the Hidden Mover behind all personal life transformation and ministry fruitfulness. Since the original publication of Spirit Walk, author Steve Smith has gone home to meet the Lord face-to-face. However, before that glorious day, he penned an impassioned plea to believers in the last days of his life. That plea and piece of instruction is what comprises the new foreword in this special edition of Spirit Walk. Read and be both challenged and invited to a life lived in the power of the Holy Spirit. Though we know the Bible says to walk in the Spirit, the majority of Christians are illiterate (and even nervous) about how to practically live in His power. The result is lives marred by continued brokenness and ministries plagued by fruitlessness. In contrast, believers from Acts understood the ancient path of the Spirit Walk. That extraordinary power was not just for them, but also for us. Gleaning insights from implementation in dozens of Acts-like movements around the world, Spirit Walk “lifts the hood and shows us the real secret behind apostolic, disciple multiplying movements” (Neil Cole, author of Organic Church). Whether you need a movement of God in your personal life or in your ministry, this book takes you through the timeless principles of the Bible. The Spirit Walk path has helped thousands of ordinary people shift from a fundamental reliance upon methods and self-helps to the essential reliance upon the Spirit who empowers both. Discover how to start on your lifelong journey of being filled again and again by the Holy Spirit as you abide in Christ.
