A meeting in a restaurant in Eastern Europe is suddenly interrupted
by secret police. Public artworks are installed in a Guatemalan
town to confront injustice perpetrated by gangs and government. A
ministry begins in the Solomon Islands where none existed before.
All this is the work of students, young people the very age the
disciples were when Jesus entrusted his ministry to them. Drawing
together incredible stories from every region of the globe - from
North America to Romania, from movements with official recognition
to those persecuted to the point of being driven underground -
Campus Lights bears witness to the way that student mission is
flourishing around the world today. In his journalistic, engaging
style, Luke Cawley recounts how students are taking risks to share
their faith, continuing the legacy of Jesus' young disciples as
they went out into the world and changed nations. Far more than a
book on student mission, Campus Lights will inspire all leaders,
encouraging them to take risks for the kingdom in their own
context, and showing how students and young people can be catalysts
for change in our world.
"COVID-19 has transformed our everyday lives. It's as if another
world has arrived in the blink of an eye. Yet life is not on pause.
We still need to live. The pandemic, like any other time, is a
moment both of opportunity as well as challenge. Healthy Faith in
the Coronavirus Crisis is a briefing on how to thrive in a world of
restrictions. Twenty leading Christian thinkers have come together
to help you begin to navigate this strange reality. Each
contributor writes on their area of expertise, and topics covered
include prayer, loneliness, work, singleness, marriage, parenting,
grief, death, imagination, conversations, humour, and much more.
They offer practical advice as well as helpful perspective from
Scripture. This is an essential resource for anyone looking to
cultivate a healthy faith which infuses all areas of life during
this disorienting time.
There's no such thing as a non-Christian. Somebody might
self-identify as spiritual but not religious. Or they might be a
practicing Hindu, Buddhist or Muslim. Or they might call themselves
an atheist, freethinker or agnostic. But the one thing that people
never describe themselves as is a "non-Christian." So Christians
who want to "reach non-Christians" need to realize that they're not
all the same. Evangelism is not one-size-fits-all. Luke Cawley
shows how Christians can contextualize the gospel in different ways
to connect with different kinds of people. Here he unpacks the
religious identities of three key demographics: the spiritual but
not religious, committed atheists and nominal Christians. Each
group has particular characteristics and requires specific
approaches and practices to make the Christian faith plausible,
desirable and tangible to them. Filled with real-life stories of
changed lives, this book is a practical and hopeful resource for
helping people to encounter God.
