For too long church leaders have focused on increasing the size of
their church rather than increasing their reach outside of the four
walls of the church building. The result? Church life becomes a
predictable set of routines with predictable results. Church
members struggle to reach the neighborhoods they drive through on
their way to church programs, unable to penetrate their surrounding
communities in a meaningful way. Reaching the Unreached recounts
the stories, struggles, and triumphs of individuals and churches
that have reinvented themselves to meet the world where it is,
working to reach the ones that no one else is reaching. The search
for the "silver bullet" of success has diverted us from tapping
into the timeless principles found in the book of Acts, says
author, pastor, and front-line church planter Peyton Jones. Yet the
spiritual climate that Paul and the Apostles stepped into is not
all that different from the brave new world the church faces today.
From accidentally planting a church in a Starbucks in Europe, to
baptizing members of the Mexican mafia in Long Beach Harbor, Jones
has been on the frontlines of today's missional movement and has
lived to tell the tale. In Reaching the Unreached, he teaches
church planters, pastors, and church leaders how to convert pew
jockeys into missionaries and awake the sleeping giant of Christ's
church, one person at a time. Today there are two types of
churches: those who put their proverbial heads in the sand, and
those who champion 1st century principles, meet the challenges head
on, and embrace the adventure of mission in community. Tomorrow,
only one type of church will survive-those that accept the
challenge to reach the unreached.
