I've never been an avid reader, but over the last few years I've developed regular reading into a good habit. Read ladder. Once I realized this, I knew that if I wanted to lead others, I should become a keen learner. When thinking about your goals for the new year, how about a reading or learning goal? What do you want to learn about this year? What books will you read to grow spiritually? Professionally? As a human?
Below is a list of my top five books of the last year. Maybe one of them will be interesting for you too. If you have a reading suggestion... You are welcome to send this to me.
Pioneering Movements
Steve Addison's “Pioneering Movements” is a journey of discovery into the world of missionary action and faith pioneers. At a time when new paths in faith are being sought, this book encourages you to awaken the pioneer spirit in your own faith life. This work is a great companion for anyone who longs for fresh perspectives.
God's generals
“God’s Generals” by Robert Liardon is a fascinating journey through the lives of charismatic leaders. These men and women have not only shaped the history of faith, but also demonstrate how faith has the power to influence generations. This book is an inspiration for a deeper understanding of the history of faith.
Apostlic Church Planting
In “Apostolic Church Planting,” J.D. Payne not only provides insights into apostolic principles of church planting, but also provides practical tools for a transformative church. For those who not only want to plant churches but also make real change in their communities, this book is a treasure trove.
Strong hand of God
“Strong Hand of God” by Jens Kaldewey is an introduction to the five-fold ministry. Kaldewey conveys how the ministries of the apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds and teachers complement each other and are essential to the community. This book is very exciting for the new movements worldwide.
dhe biblical guide for the deliverance ministry
Randy Clark's "The Biblical Guide to Deliverance Ministry" is a comprehensive resource for those who want to delve deeper into deliverance ministry. Combining theological principles with practical guidance, Clark shows how faith in the liberating power of God not only brings personal freedom but can also ignite a liberation movement.
