Relational Mission: A way of life

 

Pause for a moment and consider: what would your church be like if…

…everyone prayed together?

…we regularly shared the gospel together?

…we had deep, genuine friendships with one another?

…we equipped the next generation to start new churches?

…we worked with other churches in partnership?

…we were committed to living out New Testament values?

 

Introducing: a way of life

These values were at the heart of Mike Betts’ vision for a worldwide church that would change the world. Mike, together with a team of other contributors, shaped this vision to form the content of a book that would dig deep into the foundations and values they wanted churches to build upon.

Whilst the roots of the book stem from the Relational Mission / Newfrontiers family of churches, the story that unfolds in the book is a challenge and provocation to everyone in the Christian community. Were the wider church to pursue and embrace these values, we truly believe the world would be transformed.

A fantastic book for individuals and groups, both members of local churches and their leaders, as well as those looking in on the Relational Mission family of churches.

 

A manifesto for world-changing churches

Dive deep into key building blocks for churches that will foster increasing spiritual maturity, deep and genuine relationships, and lasting fruit.

Read the book with us and begin to dream about churches where:

  • everyone is committed to pray together, and everyone is committed to share the gospel together;

  • everyone knew deep, genuine and lasting friendships, and everyone fostered a love for a broken world;

  • everyone equipped the next generation and gave themselves to starting more churches just like it;

  • they didn't stand apart from others, but worked in partnership with other churches for the sake of the mission;

  • there was a diligent ongoing attempt to build on New Testament values, combining word and Spirit, relationship and mission.

In this book Mike Betts sets out a manifesto for the 21st century church. Whether you want to know more about the Relational Mission network, or you are seeking to understand how to see the church grow into a movement in our generation, this book is invaluable.

It is packed full of hard-won and profound wisdom and principles of secure, godly, visionary leadership that will lead to multiplication and growth. Highly recommended.
