Church politics doesn't have to be frustrating. When we think about politics we often think about the privileged vying for power. Alternatively, we might think about gridlock, about frustration, or about how little our voices seem to matter. Our obsession with statecraft can both paralyze us and lead us to duplicate the tactics of this exasperating form of politics when we lead our church communities.  Ross Kane has good news for us: church politics doesn't have to work this way! In fact, it can even become a spiritual practice. Church leaders, whether lay or clerical, will find The Good News of Church Politics an uplifting guide to modeling God's reign in our world by loving our neighbors.    Visit the Blog

Meet This Book—Humility

Amid culture wars and church division, Michael W. Austin calls us back to the authentic Way—following Christ in humility and love. 

American Christians have lost the Way. We chase power and comfort and coat our self-righteousness in a Christian veneer. We comfort ourselves that we follow the rules and go to church, so life will work out for us. But we have forgotten what it means to truly follow Christ.

Michael Austin brings us back to basics of the Christian life: humility and love. Drawing on Philippians and 1 Corinthians, Austin reminds us how Jesus, in love, poured himself out for others. This other-centeredness stands contrary to vainglorious affirmation in our lives, online and off—and it is the key to healing the deep divisions in our communities.
