About this product
Product Information
It's Time to Live a Gospel Adventure of Your Own, From Planting a church (accidentally) at a Starbucks in Europe, to baptizing members of the Mexican mafia in Long Beach author and pastor Peyton Jones has always been drawn to the front lines of ministry. Reaching the Unreached, is an honest, hard-hitting, and grace-filled adventure to rediscover the timeless principles found in the book of Acts. Jones shows us how a recovery of the mission of Jesus can covert pew jockeys into missionaries and reawaken the sleeping giant of Christ's church, one person at a time. Book jacket.

I am really excited about Peyton Jones's new book. With his usual mix of personal confrontation, biblical sophistication, and pop-cultural elucidation, Peyton sets our eyes on the beautiful adventure of re-engaging and reaching the lost. I really enjoyed this book, and you will too.
Table of Content
Chapter 1: THE BRAVE NEW WORLDDoes a lesbian get a separate gospel from everybody else? What would you say to the lesbian in the inner city who interrupts an open-air service to ask what the grace and mercy just preached means for her? Welcome to the brave new world we minister in. This was just the launch day for Refuge Long Beach. Many churches will never face this type of front-line encounter because they rarely engage the people outside their building. When they do make the attempt, it often resembles playing an 8-track tape to an iTunes world. We won_t reach the world if we approach people as we want them to be. We need to reach the people as they are. Whenever the church has regained it_s forward momentum, it has been preceded by a crisis of purpose. The first three chapters of Re:Mission will focus on _reaching the ones that nobody is reaching_. Chapter one will present the main issues, ask the hard questions, and lay out a sense of purpose that all churches can identify with.Chapter 2: I LOOK AT ALL THE LONELY PEOPLEHow can I reach people if I hate them? Few are honest about how they really feel about others until they_re on the road. Then the truth comes out! In order to reach the world, we first need to see it the way Jesus does. The world will only change if we change first. This chapter will urge the believers and churches to focus on individuals rather than crowds. Jesus actively went after the marginalized of society, and through his followers, the gospel quickly penetrated every strata of society in the first century. Jesus turned and looked at his followers issuing the challenge that there were few willing to go into the harvest field? He asked them to pray that they might gain his burden for the lost. How does a believer stoke the coals of passion for the lost so that it ignites into evangelistic fire?Chapter 3: REACH THE ONES NO ONE IS REACHINGWhat if you overheard the statement _I attend a church that Jesus would actually go to_? What would that look like? People rarely need an explanation. They know what kind of people that Jesus attracted, and can therefore envision what his church would look like. What does a church do when the cross-dressing prostitute uses the women_s bathroom? How you handle these situations will largely determine what kind of people you will reach. Jones tackles the practical barriers that churches face to reaching those who appear to need the gospel most, but have the least opportunity to hear it. Jones has seen multiple sex workers leave the trade, witnessed people set free from 25-year crack addictions. He_s baptized wanted criminals before they_ve turned themselves in to pay for their crimes, or been fatally shot. Refuge Long Beach is known locally as the last stop before Hell. Perhaps when churches measure success by the types of people reached, instead of just by the numbers reached, it will be closer to what Jesus intended; a church he_d go to.Chapter 4: GO WHERE NO ONE IS GOINGThe gospel tends to follow middle class tracks. Churches frequently follow where the money goes, instead of where the need is. When Paul was sent out on mission with the blessing of The Twelve, he was told to _remember the poor_ (Galatians 2:10). Churches have been targeting upwardly mobile, middle class families because according to the old church growth models, that_s what brings success. Meanwhile, God is bringing the nations to our doorstep. Churches need an urban mindset for mission. Every city has a local _Samaria_ where people would rather go around. The question is, are you willing to go there? When you do, it won_t just be the un-churched who are changed.Chapter 5: YOU CALL THAT MISSIONAL?The Missional movement hasn_t gone missional enough. In Acts 5:42 we read that the church met from house to house and in the temple courts. We_ve learned how to meet in houses, but we haven_t learned the necessity of doing ministry in public spaces. When church goes public, it will becom

As described... A+++ on shipping and price... C (and that's being generous) on time. If you have forever and a month of Sundays to wait around then by all means do so. The price was great and the seller communicated wonderfully and the item was packed well so it wasn't damaged during transit all A pluses in my book just took a little bit longer than I anticipated.
