Here are two excerpts from “The Forgotten Ways” by Alan Hirsch

A Note to Leaders and Introduction: http://www.cmaresources.org/files/ForgottenWaysHandbook-excerpt.pdf

and

Introduction and Chapter 1 – Confessions of a Frustrated Missionary: http://assets.bakerpublishinggroup.com/processed/book-resources/files/Hirsch.pdf?1362591025

I’m not sure if I’m allowed to link to these or not, which is why I am not hosting them on my own pages but leading you back to their original sites.

Here is a good overview of the whole book, but I’m not sure I’m allowed to link to it either.

This book is really good and has a ton of thought-provoke for Christians in churches, especially you mega-church folks.

“The Forgotten Ways: Reactivating the Missional Church” (Alan Hirsch)

I know there were some other speakers before Francis Chan, but he was the first one I heard. There were some good bits in here, and it was good that at the end he wrapped it up on a positive note.

Revelation 3:1-2

“‘I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead. 2 Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete in the sight of my God.

I’m going to end most of my Exponential blog posts with this footer. I think the $50 for this is well spent. It is not an affiliate link or anything like that, I just think you’ll get your world rocked in a positive if you listen to these talks.
