Discovering New Dimensions in Faith-Based Community Work

"A welcome and needed book addressing the current tensions and opportunities. . . . Dr. Ward's foundational book points us to a way forward. I am enthused at what this book can do to lead us as church leaders and agency leaders to a new synergy." - Jerry E. White, international president emeritus of The Navigators, a Christian parachurch organization

In a world where the church's relevance is often questioned, Angie Ward offers a compelling blueprint for a unified ecclesial future in Beyond Church and Parachurch. Beyond Church and Parachurch is not just a historical and theological exploration; it's a roadmap for rethinking the very essence of Christian ministry. Whether you're a pastor, mission leader, or nonprofit executive, you will be challenged to transcend conventional boundaries and discover the full spectrum of the church's potential.

  • Holistic Understanding: Develops a comprehensive view that integrates both traditional and emerging forms of ministry.
  • Innovative Strategies: Beyond Church and Parachurch presents forward-thinking approaches to facilitate collaboration between churches and parachurch organizations.
  • Inclusive Leadership: Emphasizes the importance of diverse leadership in fostering a more inclusive community.
  • Practical Applications: Offers actionable insights and case studies to apply the concepts in real-world contexts.
  • Future-Oriented: Focuses on long-term vision and sustainable practices for impactful ministry work.

Dive into a fresh understanding of the church in all its forms-be it campus ministries, mission agencies, or church-planting networks. Ward's vision dismantles the silos that fragment evangelical efforts, urging us to view the church as an interconnected ecosystem of apostolic networks. This paradigm shift empowers leaders to maximize kingdom impact, fostering cooperation and collaboration across organizations. With practical insights and visionary guidance, Beyond Church and Parachurch equips Christian leaders to serve a world in need with renewed purpose and unity. Transform your ministry approach and join a movement that redefines what it means to be the church.
