WESTMONT, IL—Send Institute, a think tank for evangelism and church planting in North America, has included three InterVarsity Press titles on its list of Top 10 Church Planting Related Books from 2019. Daniel Yang, director of Send Institute, said, “These books capture how some leaders are responding to the church planting challenges and opportunities in the 21st century.”

The IVP books that made the Send Institute list include Together for the City by Neil Powell and John James, Sent to Flourish edited by Len Tang and Charles E. Cotherman, and A Big Gospel in Small Places by Stephen Witmer.

In Together for the City: How Collaborative Church Planting Leads to Citywide Movements pastors Neil Powell and John James contend that to truly transform a city, the gospel compels us to create localized, collaborative church-planting movements. They share lessons learned and principles discovered from their experiences leading a successful citywide movement. In the foreword Tim Keller, founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church, said, “While there is an increasing body of literature about church planting in general, there is almost nothing available that describes whole-city collaboration among multiple denominations, networks, and movements. Neil and John spell out what it takes to get this done. I know of no better book on the subject.”

Sent to Flourish: A Guide to Planting and Multiplying Churches is written by a diverse team of scholar-practitioners who have planted churches in a variety of contexts, cultures, and church traditions. This book provides a tested road map based on Fuller Theological Seminary’s renowned church-planting program. In addition to editors Len Tang and Charles E. Cotherman, contributors include Carrie Boren Headington, John Lo, Tim Morey, Johnny Ramírez-Johnson, Scott W. Sunquist, Nick Warnes, and JR Woodward. “Drawing from Scripture and the experience of many church starters and reproducing churches, this book has the capacity both to inspire and to guide planting initiatives into healthy, practical activation,” said Daniel Steigerwald, missional catalyst and coach at Artesia ReSourcing. “Along the way, the authors remain ever attentive to helping startup teams cultivate the supportive environments and practices conducive to their flourishing and the multiplying of new churches.”

In A Big Gospel in Small Places: Why Ministry in Forgotten Communities Matters pastor Stephen Witmer lays out an integrated theological vision for small-place ministry. Filled with helpful information about small places and with stories and practical advice from his own ministry, Witmer’s book offers a compelling, comprehensive vision for small-place ministry today. A Big Gospel in Small Places was also recently listed on Kevin DeYoung’s Top 10 Books of 2019 and was honored with two awards: the 2019 WORLD Magazine Book of the Year Short List in the Accessible Theology category and the 2019 Gospel Coalition Book Award in the Ministry category.

Collin Hansen, editorial director for The Gospel Coalition, said “This is a book whose time has come. I’ve long appreciated Stephen Witmer’s advocacy for ministry in the small places. And now we have an apologetic, a theological vision for this particular work. He makes the case for small places without patronizing them or denigrating ministry in other areas. I even appreciated his pushback to the urban thesis of the early church. That’s what makes this book an important read, even if you could never imagine living in the places where Stephen and I grew up.”

Yang also made special mention of two other IVP books. He said, “In addition to my recommended books on church planting, I offer up eight more books in evangelism and missiology that I think are important as we continue to think about missions in 21st century North America.” The two IVP titles included among the eight were You Found Me: New Research on How Unchurched Nones, Millennials, and Irreligious Are Surprisingly Open to Christian Faith by Rick Richardson and Seeking Church: Emerging Witnesses to the Kingdom by Darren T. Duerksen and William A. Dyrness.

WHEATON, Ill.—Crossway is pleased to announce that Rosaria Butterfield’s The Gospel Comes with a House Key: Practicing Radically Ordinary Hospitality in Our Post-Christian World (Crossway, April 2018) has surpassed 100,000 units in print sales.

With engaging stories from her own life-changing encounter with radically ordinary hospitality, Butterfield equips Christians to use their homes as a means of showing a post-Christian world what authentic love and faith really look like. Such hospitality sees one’s home not as his or her own, but as God’s tool for the furtherance of his kingdom as people welcome those who look, think, believe, and act differently from them into their everyday, sometimes messy lives.

“For Christians to maintain an authentic Christian witness to a world that mistrusts us (at the very least), we must be transparently hospitable,” writes Butterfield. “The Christian life is a cross-bearing life, and the word of God calls and equips God’s people to holy living. All our neighbors must know that we live differently from the world, and they will know as we live visibly within the means of grace, placing ourselves under the authority of the church as members in good standing—and we must be unmistakably hospitable.”

Available in both hardcover and ebook formats, The Gospel Comes with a House Key has received commendations from Russell D. Moore (president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention), Gloria Furman (author of Missional Motherhood), Sam Allberry (author of 7 Myths about Singleness), and more.

Moore writes, “One cannot spend any time at all with Rosaria Butterfield without a renewed sense of how good the good news really is. This book is a needed call to the church to model the hospitality of our Lord. As our culture faces a crisis of loneliness, this is the book we need. The book will inspire you and leave you with a notebook filled with ideas for how to practically engage your neighbors with the welcome of the gospel.”

“It is a great honor for us to publish this book, which Rosaria describes as the work closest to her heart, and it is a wonderful encouragement for us to see how widely it has sold, especially given that this is a book that directly challenges the church to get out of its comfort zone and to become biblically hospitable for the sake of the gospel,” commends Justin Taylor, Crossway’s executive vice president of book publishing and book publisher. “Rosaria is a gift to the church, and we are delighted to see how many are responding to this timely and timeless message.”

Butterfield is also the author of The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert (Crown & Covenant Publications, 2012), and Openness Unhindered (Crown & Covenant Publications, 2015). For more information about the author, visit rosariabutterfield.com.

Rosaria Butterfield (PhD, Ohio State University) is an author, speaker, pastor’s wife, homeschool mom, and former professor of English and women’s studies at Syracuse University. She is the author of The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert and Openness Unhindered. rosariabutterfield.com

Writing Worship: How To Craft Heartfelt Songs for the Church

Nashville, Tenn. (December 2019) – What’s the most important ingredient in crafting an impactful worship song? Dove Award-winning songwriter and worship leader Krissy Nordhoff knows it’s all about relationships: with God and one another. In her first book, Writing Worship: How To Craft Heartfelt Songs for the Church, available March 1 through David C Cook, Nordhoff invites aspiring and seasoned lyricists on a journey of exploration and skill development because, as she states, “your voice is valued by the King and needed by the church.”

A professional songwriter for over twenty years and founder of the Brave Worship writing community, Nordhoff is the recipient of three Dove Award nominations and the winner of a Dove Award for Worship Song of the Year for the beloved anthem “Your Great Name.” Her songs have been recorded by artists including: Natalie Grant, Tauren Wells, Darlene Zschech, Jenn Johnson (Bethel Music), Mandisa, David and Nicole Binion, Corey Voss, Aaron Shust, Travis Cottrell, Prestonwood Worship and Philips, Craig & Dean.

Though she’s been writing since childhood, it has only been within the last 10 years that the Nashville area wife and mom’s songs – born from her tears and triumphs – would travel the globe and help others plumb new depths in their relationships with God. Through Writing Worship, Nordhoff hopes to impart the lessons she learned to help writers discover, cultivate and nurture the songs in their hearts in order to write impactful worship songs for themselves, their congregations and the global church.

While focusing on their relationship with God through prayer and two-way journaling, readers of varying skill levels will learn to craft lyrics and melodies, learn to self-edit during the writing process, clarify a song’s purpose and co-write songs customized for their churches and communities. Nordhoff also offers free resources such as video tutorials, a songwriter personality assessment, topical podcasts, a leader’s guide for group learning and a bonus audiobook.

An instructor who regularly coaches individuals and church worship teams in writing and co-writing for their communities, Nordhoff is passionate about unlocking God’s fresh revelation through new songs and the head-heart connection found in music.

“Whether in times of challenge or victory, worship leaders and songwriters have an opportunity to meet the congregation right where they are,” she explains. “Worship songs help us gently approach people experiencing trials and lead hearts to healing. Often we can encourage through song as we never could through the spoken word.”

Nordhoff and David C Cook release Writing Worship [Paperback | $16.99 (US) | ISBN 978-0-8307-8079-2] globally March 1. For additional information, visit KrissyNordhoff.com or follow Nordhoff on Twitter @KrissyNordhoff and Instagram @Krissy_Nordhoff.

Headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado—with offices in Illinois, Ohio, Tennessee, and the United Kingdom—David C Cook produces resources that are published in over 150 languages and distributed in more than 170 countries.

What others are saying about Writing Worship:

“Krissy Nordhoff is a true craftsman of songs, a true worshipper of God, a true lover of people, and a true believer in helping others. I know that if you carefully and prayerfully apply the principles she shares in Writing Worship, the songs will come… whether for an audience of the One or many.”
Darlene Zschech, worship leader, songwriter, author, senior pastor of HopeUC (New South Wales)

“No matter what stage or skill level you are at when it comes to songwriting, you will take away a deeper knowledge of not only practical songwriting techniques but also what really matters when it comes to writing songs for the church. This book is a must-read for anyone wanting more of Jesus and more songs!”
Mike Grayson, worship experience director for Cross Point Church (Nashville, TN), songwriter, former lead singer of MIKESCHAIR

“Krissy’s focus and passion for saying just the right words with just the right melody is her trademark, along with keeping the writing process fun and heartfelt. You will learn so much from reading her book and will be inspired to write your new songs immediately…”
Paul Baloche, Dove Award-winning songwriter, worship leader, founder of LeadWorship

“Krissy carries the heart of the Father and the kingdom of God with unspeakable depth. This isn’t just any book—this is an awakening of identity and destiny. You’re about to go to a whole new level!”
Jenni McGrew, founder of Worship Leaders Collective, pastor of Hope City Church (Abbotsford, B.C.)

“Very few people have encouraged me in songwriting like Krissy has. She is a gifted songwriter who has devoted her life to helping others find their voice. This book should be read by anyone who wants to write songs for the church. It is not just for the professional, but it is for anyone who has ever dreamed of writing a song. As Krissy will tell you, “everyone is invited to the table.”
Dustin Smith, worship leader, songwriter, founder of Here Be Lions, pastor of HopeUC (Nashville, TN)

WESTMONT, IL—With nearly three hundred books reviewed each year between their academic journal Themelios and their regular book review section, The Gospel Coalition has chosen two IVP titles among its top twelve books of the year. The Gospel Coalition 2019 Book Awards went to He Descended to the Dead and A Big Gospel in Small Places.

TGC editor Ivan Mesa said, “At the end of each year we take stock of the most helpful titles across various categories, using the following fourfold criteria:

• offers gospel-centered argument and application;
• includes faithful and foundational use of Scripture, both Old Testament and New Testament;
• fosters spiritual discernment of contemporary trials and trends; and
• encourages efforts to unite and renew the church.”

He Descended to the Dead: An Evangelical Theology of Holy Saturday by Matthew Emerson was the title that best fit these criteria for the Academic Theology category of the TGC Book Awards. “Matthew Emerson has brought light to an often dark topic,” the judges wrote. “This book is a lovely blending of academic, systematic, and pastoral theology that deals with a neglected, misunderstood, and important creedal topic. It also models how evangelicals can engage and retrieve Patristic theology under the authority of Scripture.”  

A Big Gospel in Small Places: Why Ministry in Forgotten Communities Matters by Stephen Witmer was one of two TGC Book Award winners in the Ministry category. This title was also recently included on the shortlist for WORLD magazine’s Best Books of the Year. The Gospel Coalition judges said this about Witmer’s book, “In recent years, church planters and revitalizers have been drawn in increasing numbers to urban areas. But what about those out-of-the-way places where rural folks need to hear the gospel and sound doctrine? Stephen Witmer provides a compelling theological case for why those places matter and offers a keen, biblically sound strategy for the small places. Focusing on the city may seem strategic, but Witmer shows how Jesus is often unstrategic. Witmer argues, in beautiful prose, why ministry in the country remains an urgent and fulfilling necessity.”

Grand Rapids, MI—Baker Book House knows reading is its own reward, but that hasn’t stopped the store from rewarding readers too. This past summer, Baker’s summer reading program had 1,802 participants who earned a combined total of $18,615 in store gift certificates. This December, the store is adding a new reward program aimed at Christmas break.

So far, 13 area schools have taken up Baker’s new Christmas Break Reading Challenge. Students are being challenged to complete 25 different reading-related goals over their break.

“I’m excited about Baker’s Christmas Break Reading Challenge,” says Lois Boerman, Teacher Librarian at Ada Christian School. “One of my favorites squares is ‘Listen to an Audiobook.’ When our kids were little, we listened to audiobooks on tape and CD in the car. Our kids still talk about the books and narrators that they loved. I hope families take advantage of listening to an audiobook together while traveling or while doing life around the house. It’s a great way to create shared memories.”

Some other challenges on the list are “Read 100 minutes in a single day” and “Swap a book with a friend.” Participants can earn 5 different levels of rewards based on the number of challenges they complete. The top prize for participation includes a $5 gift certificate to Baker Book House, a free hot cocoa at Baker’s Beanery, a reading challenge bracelet, an item from Baker’s treasure chest, and an exclusive reading challenge bookmark.

What inspired the challenge?

“My kids were the ones who came up with the idea,” says Josh Mosey, Children’s Book Buyer at Baker Book House. “We were talking about ways to encourage other kids to love reading like we do, and they started coming up with different reading challenges. All I did was write it down to show it to the Baker Book House management team.”

As an added incentive for schools to participate, Baker Book House is awarding a $50 gift card to the librarian whose school has the greatest percentage of participants.

The Christmas Break Reading Challenge isn’t limited to participating schools. Any child can take part. Challenge sheets are available for pick up at Baker Book House, 2768 East Paris Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546. Completed challenge sheets must be returned to Baker Book House by January 11, 2020.

Baker Book House was founded in 1939 when Herman Baker started the store with 500 books from his personal library. Baker is known world-wide for a deep selection of Christian titles, including new, used, and bargain books. Visit www.bakerbookhouse.com for more information.

WESTMONT, IL—Christopher L. Heuertz has signed a contract with InterVarsity Press to serve as the series editor for Enneagram Daily Reflections, which will provide daily readings for those who want to learn more about the Enneagram, a personality typing system. The series is scheduled to release in October 2020.

“What an honor to be included in this much-needed devotional series. With the rapidly growing body of Enneagram literature, type-specific contributions that are reflective and rooted in spiritual experiences are a welcome addition,” said Heuertz.

The Enneagram Daily Reflections series will build on current interest in the Enneagram and add new voices and perspectives to an already rich conversation about each personality type expressed through the Enneagram. The complete series will have nine volumes, one volume for each Enneagram number. Each volume will be written by a different Christian author, representing their own personality type and providing unique and personal reflections on daily living within the context of that number. The volumes will include Forty Days on Being a One by Juanita Rasmus, Forty Days on Being a Two by Hunter Mobley, Forty Days on Being a Three by Sean Palmer, and Forty Days on Being a Nine by Marlena Graves.

Cindy Bunch, associate publisher and director of editorial at IVP, said, “This is a very significant book project, and we are so pleased to have Chris’s expertise and perspective to guide us through this series. It will give readers an opportunity to view the Enneagram through fresh eyes and go deeper into their own number. These daily volumes will reflect the spiritual path of growth that Enneagram wisdom offers.”

Heuertz previously authored The Sacred Enneagram: Finding Your Unique Path to Spiritual Growth and currently serves as an International Enneagram Association Accredited Professional. He is also founding partner of Gravity, a Center for Contemplative Activism. Known as an authority on the Enneagram, Heuertz recently contributed a feature article to IVP’s newly launched Enneagram Today website, https://enneagramtoday.com.

Enneagram Today launched on October 16, 2019, and is intended to be a resource for all Enneagram enthusiasts. For beginners and experts across the full faith spectrum, Enneagram Today sets out to provide rich, trusted content from a Christian perspective and to open up a space for thoughtful teaching and learning. Articles, books, podcasts, and teachers all serve as resources on the website. While not exhaustive, the content found on Enneagram Today focuses on what best reflects the ongoing conversation and breadth of information on the Enneagram. 

Lorraine Caulton, IVP’s director of creative and customer engagement, said, “As a publisher that has and continues to release resources like the forthcoming Enneagram Daily Reflections series, we saw an opportunity to fill a void online around this topic. Curating content from many different authorities on the subject and providing it all in one central place with this website, we believe we are meeting an important need.” 

Founded in 1947 as an extension of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA, InterVarsity Press serves those in the university, the church, and the world by publishing thoughtful Christian books that equip and encourage people to follow Jesus as Savior and Lord in all of life.
