Small new Christian communities created by pioneer ministers, both
lay and ordained, are popping up everywhere - on housing estates,
in community centres, schools, cafes, among different age groups
and in numerous other contexts beyond the local church. This
practical book is for all who are engaged in this form of ministry
and it begins by identifying some basic principles from a wide
variety of creative examples of pioneer ministry. Illustrated with
actual examples throughout, it explores * how to 'listen' to the
physical, social and spiritual environment of a local context * how
to discern a community's needs and the appropriate missional
response * how to build a creative team * the art of the start -
how to begin well * how to build relationships and create community
by acts of authentic love * how to become and stay Jesus-centred *
how to live and tell the gospel in meaningful ways * how to grow
disciples * how to stay fresh (and avoid rotas!)
