Many pastors struggle to translate their theological beliefs into fruitful ministry in the places they are called to reach. It's not enough to simply know what to believe (theology) or, on the other hand, how to do ministry (methodology) - they need something in between. They need help thinking about ministry in a culture that no longer believes Christianity is a force for good, let alone the source of ultimate revealed truth in the person of Christ. This collection of twelve essays by Timothy Keller outlines a theological vision for ministry that is organized around three core commitments: - Gospel-centered: The gospel of grace in Jesus Christ changes everything, from our hearts to our community to the world. It completely reshapes the content, tone, and strategy of all that we do. - City-centered: With a positive approach toward our culture, we learn to affirm that cities are wonderful, strategic, and underserved places for gospel ministry. - Movement-centered: Instead of building our own tribe, we seek the prosperity and peace of our community, as we are led by the Holy Spirit. A theological vision creates a bridge between doctrine and expression, a balance between cultural engagement and countercultural distinctiveness. Written by a practitioner for practitioners, it will provoke serious reflection, creative adaptation, and decisive action. It can be used by groups or individually and includes questions for discussion and reflection.… (plus d'informations)

This is typical Keller applied to a comprehensive approach to church based ministry, especially as it applies to doing ministry in the city. However, he makes the argument early on that because of the pervasiveness of popular culture, more and more suburban and even rural areas and their people take on characteristics of a city mentality. Though listening to it was of tremendous benefit, this was not a great choice for an audible format. Nor do I think an electronic version will do it, so I'm still going to be out $30 or so to pick up a hard copy. There are numerous sections of the book I need to revisit. ( )

This one is my book of the year. It is a clarion call to be faithful to the Gospel, while having a theological vision that is contextualised faithfully to the environment in which we work. It concludes with a ringing endorsement of the importance of church planting. This is a book that engages heart and mind in mission, provokes us to thoughtful faithfulness and drives us to a clear theological vision of mission in our context. The best I've read o the subject. Although it's quite long, it is not filled with unnecessary padding, has a very clear structure and progression as you read through it. ( )
