Mark DeYmaz: Building a Healthy Multi-ethnic Church: Mandate, Commitments and Practices of a Diverse Congregation (J-B Leadership Network Series)
Through personal stories and a thorough analysis of the biblical text, Mark DeYmaz provides the theological mandate for the multi-ethnic church and outlines seven core commitments required to bring it about. Writing from his experience in planting,
growing, and encouraging more ethnically diverse faith communities, DeYmaz shows why the most effective way to advance the Gospel in the 21st century will be through strong multi-ethnic churches. He challenges pastors and laypeople, who believe the kingdom of heaven is not segregated, to create local churches on earth that will not be either.
Linda DeYmaz: Mommy, Please Don't Cry: There Are No Tears in Heaven
A 2004 Retailers' Choice nominee, this book is widely recognized as the #1 resource for moms and dads grieving the loss of a child.
David T. Olson: The American Church in Crisis: Groundbreaking Research Based on a National Database of over 200,000 Churches
Amon other things, documents the coming shift from a mono-ethnic to a multi-ethnic society whereby "the multi-ethnic church is becoming the normal and natural picture of the new face of Christianity."
Michael O. Emerson: Divided by Faith: Evangelical Religion and the Problem of Race in America
Paul Louis Metzger: Consuming Jesus: Beyond Race and Class Divisions in a Consumer Church
Here's my endorsement of the book: Consuming Jesus sounds the death knell for a paradigm of church growth driven by the homogeneous unit principle and measured in success by numbers, dollars and buildings. Dr. Metzger's thorough scholarship and engaging analysis of history, culture and theology provides a wealth of insight for practitioners addressing the question, If the kingdom of heaven is not segregated, why on earth is the church?
