Church planting is in vogue, yet there is a paucity of sustained biblical and theological reflection on the topic. Key voices are practitioners and planters themselves - here is the biblical theology that the missiological practice of our day has been crying out for. John Valentine explores the Bible's 'how' and 'why' for starting new churches and revitalizing old ones - in this robust and comprehensive biblical theological look at one aspect of the mission of God.
This manual tells the story of a boy and his compelling and unusual life journey. Born and raised in an era where society appears to have lost its values, living in hypocrisy and falsehood, driven by a mentality built upon false ideals, the boy starts asking questions and seeking answers through his own introspection. He looks beyond the barriers imposed by society and conventional logic. It's a capacity we can nurture, develop, refine, and pass on to enhance our relationship with ourselves, with others, and with the reality we encounter every day. We can choose to live with love and positivity, being happy and grateful for this wonderful and magnificent adventure that is life.
