A practical guide to changing the world with gospel action, from the CEO of a leading evangelical nonprofitGlobal social justice issues are motivating a new generation of evangelicals, most of whom grew up with a simple "Jesus is the answer" worldview. What's often missing for these new activists is a clear understanding of how individual and social transformation happens, and how a culture of "haves" can bring good to a culture of "have nots" without inadvertently also bringing harm.Bauman's book is a stirring yet pragmatic treatise on how individuals and churches can be catalysts for radical, positive, and lasting change. He sees ours as a crucial moment in history-when Christians could, with a wiser and more creative approach to faith and action, go on to effect unprecedented good around the world. Drawing on a wealth of experience on the front lines of Christian ministry as well as international relief and human rights, he shows his readers the breathtaking yet entirely possible scope of their calling.

Across the world, people like you are rising up to fight poverty, oppression, and injustice—not just professionals, but bloggers, musicians, entrepreneurs, artists, homemakers, and advocates. People who refuse to accept the world as it is, who dare to believe change is possible.  But we face a crisis of vision. We sense what needs to be done, but often we don’t know how to do it. Without a better blueprint for doing good well, our moment in history will slip away. Stephan Bauman, president of one of the largest relief organizations in the world, believes true change begins in the hearts and actions of ordinary people. In Possible, he presents clear and biblical thinking, powerful stories, and practical tools for sustainably impacting our workplaces, neighborhoods, villages, and cities.  Possible is an eloquent and personal call to reconsider what it means to change ourselves so that we can change the world.

Possible: A Blueprint for Changing How We Change the World

christianaudio

The world is witnessing its worst refugee crisis in recorded history, and the videos and images that have surfaced are harrowing. Many of us wonder how we can help, but at the same time we are nervous—we want to be compassionate, but we are concerned about the risks.
Seeking Refuge speaks right into that tension. It explores the salient issues and dilemmas, the theological and moral arguments, the economic costs and benefits of welcoming refugees, and more. Informed by real stories from refugee communities around the world, Seeking Refuge will equip you for a compassionate response to refugees and other displaced people, one that displays God’s redeeming power to a broken world.
The church has an opportunity to lead out on one of the most important issues of our time. Someday our Lord will say, “I was a stranger and you welcomed me...” Will he be talking about us?
