Unbinding the Gospel Series
"Martha Grace Reese's 'trilogy' may be the most useful resource for awakening slumbering churches that has come along in a very long time."
George G. Hunter, III
Summary of series as described by Chalice Press (January 1, 2008):
Martha Grace Reese's Unbinding the Gospel: Real Life Evangelism was published exactly a year ago. Chalice Press is about to receive the fifth printing. Who could have anticipated that a book about evangelism for mainline churches would be a runaway best-seller?
Churches using Unbinding the Gospel with their leaders have asked for more, and here it is: The Unbinding the Gospel Series.
Reese has prepared two more books that expand Unbinding the Gospel into a faith and faith-sharing saturation experience for your whole church. Unbinding Your Heart and Unbinding Your Church. They are available today.
Unbinding the Gospel provides the fundamentals for pastors and church leaders. After your leadership is excited about faith and faith sharing, use Unbinding Your Heart (a six-week version of Unbinding the Gospel, with 40 days of individual prayer exercises) as a small group study for your ENTIRE church!
Unbinding Your Church furnishes the tools to tie all of the elements into one, seamless process. Use it from the beginning if you want your studies of Unbinding the Gospel and Unbinding Your Heart to be as effective as they can be. With sermons, fully integrated music and worship resources, organizational forms, lesson plans, prayer coaching, calendars, and more, you can help the Spirit jump-start faith and faith-sharing in your church.
The Unbinding the Gospel Series is an integrated set of resources for an all-church, small group, prayer-based study of the basics of the bestseller Unbinding the Gospel.
