Compelled By Love
0 Comments
At the recent Dwell Conference in NYC, we were able to put a brand new book into the hands of 300 church leaders. Compelled by Love, subtitled The Most Excellent Way to Missional Living is the new book by our friend Ed Stetzer and Acts 29 church planter Philip Nation. As we expected from Ed and Philip, it is funny, conversational, and has solid biblical content. It begins with God’s nature, gives an overview of the church’s mission, and then addresses the heart of the individual believer. And all of it seeks to push missional from just a church paradigm to a fleshed out Gospel-driven life.
All of us in the ranks of pastors, elders, and planters have a fairly good handle on what it means to be missional. Most of us hope that the average person attending our church does as well. But sometimes they just do not seem to get it. Ed and Philip wrote this book to help bridge the gap for your people. It is an easy read and can be used as a group study as well; even if you are in the core group stage.
We thank New Hope Publishers for providing the books free of charge to the first 300 registrants at the conference. We also thank Ed and Philip for providing the church with this resource that emphasizes the love of Christ as the source of passion for His mission.
