Hardback. Condizione: Good. Best-selling author and ministry leader Thom S. Rainer drew an exceptional response when he posted a 500-word declaration about church membership to his daily blog. "I Am a Church Member" started a conversation about the attitudes and responsibilities of church members -- rather than the functional and theological issues -- that previous new member primers all but ignored. Thoughtfully expanded to book form, I Am a Church Member begins to remedy the outbreak of inactive or barely committed church members, addressing without apology what is expected of those who join a body of believers. When a person's attitude is consistently biblical and healthy, matters of giving, serving, and so forth will fall into place more naturally.   Six intentional chapters with study questions guide this rising discussion: I Will Be a Unifying Church Member I Will Not Let the Church Be About My Preferences and Desires I Will Pray for My Church Leaders I Will Lead My Family to Be Healthy Church Members I Will Be a Functioning Member I Will Treasure Church Membership as a Gift. …

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. In a national survey conducted by author Thom Rainer and his staff, eight out of ten unchurched men and women said they would come to church--if only someone would invite them. When and how is the next big question. Rainer helps you figure out where your neighbors, friends, and coworkers are in their spiritual quest, and how you can know who among the unchurched people in your life are receptive to Christ. In this fascinating book, Rainer identifies five faith stages that represent your running buddy, your sister-in-law, or your hairdresser. A discovery we made is that reaching lost and unchurched people is not always best accomplished with some cookie-cutter strategy, Rainer writes. The unchurched are different in how they respond to the gospel. How different? You will be amazed at the variables that exist when it comes to how open people are to the Christian message. Open this book, and open your mind and heart to the powerful new possibilities of reaching The Unchurched Next Door. …

Hardback. Condizione: Fair. Why do so many young adults (18 to 22) leave the church, and what will it take to bring them back? This important question is examined and duly answered in Essential Church?, a follow-up to Thom S. Rainer's best-selling Simple Church cowritten this time with his son, research expert Sam Rainer. The book is based on a study of one-thousand so-called "church dropouts" who were interviewed about why they left. Their answers are quite surprising, having less to do with "losing their religion" and more about the desire for a community that isn't made stale by simply maintaining the status quo. In turn, the Rainers offer churches four concrete solutions toward making their worship community an essential part these young people's lives again:  Simplify - develop a clear structure and process for making disciples. Deepen - provide strong biblical teaching and preaching. Expect - let members know the need for commitment to the congregation. Multiply - emphasize evangelism, outward focus, and starting new churches. …
