|  Just In! | ReJesus: A Wild Messiah for a Missional Church
Michael Frost, Alan Hirsch
Retail Price: $19.95
CBD Price: $11.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt
"How has it come about that the development of Christianity and the church has given birth to a society, a civilization, a culture that are completely opposite to what we read in the Bible, to what is indisputably the text of the law, the prophets, Jesus and Paul?" So adduces Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch from the introduction of their newest book citing philosopher Jacques Ellul.
In ReJesus, Frost & Hirsch examine the practice of everyday Christian spirituality and ultimately ask if what we practice today is what Jesus passed down to his first century followers. The authors note that many institutionalized forms of Christianity have traded the radical way of Jesus for the stability of outward religious expression. Frost & Hirsch issue a call to the church, therefore, to refocus its spiritual practice upon the true author and Foundation of our faith.

Exiles: Living Missionally in a Post-Christian Culture
Michael Frost
Retail Price: $19.95
CBD Price: $13.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt
Exiles: Living Missionally in a Post-Christian Culture presents
a biblical, Christian worldview for those in the emergent conversation outside of traditional church models or those in the secular world. As
exiles of both, they must create their own worldview that integrates
their Christian faith with the contemporary world. Exiles seeks to
integrate all aspects of life and decision-making in order to develop characteristics of a Christian life lived intentionally within postmodern culture. Ultimately, Exiles presents a plea for a dynamic, life-affirming,
robust Christian faith that can be lived successfully in the
post-Christian world of twenty-first century Western society.

Excerpt
In The Shaping of Things to Come Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch explore why the Church needs to recalibrate itself, rebuilding itself from the roots up. The case is built around real-life stories gathered from innovative missional projects from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and England. These spirited experiments of Gospel community serve to point out just how varied a genuinely incarnational approach to mission can, and indeed needs to, become. They present vital nodes of missional learning for the established Church as it seeks to orientate itself to the unique challenges of the twenty-first century.
