Movements That Change the World
Steve Addison gleans the characteristics of the dynamic missionary movement from biblical, historical and contemporary case studies. Addison shows how these factors recur in every period of Christian expansion, and suggests that Christianity's distinction as a historical movement lies in its power to outlast the centuries.
What Jesus Started
Sometimes we get so caught up in the power of Jesus shouting from the cross, "It is finished!" that we forget that Jesus started something too. Uncovering the inner dynamics of Jesus's work with the disciples, veteran church planter Steve Addison reminds us that Christianity is a movement with a unique design for expansion.
The Rise and Fall of Movements
A ministry is what you can do with the help of others. A movement is what God can do when you let go of control and multiply disciples and churches. Drawing on the life and ministry of Jesus, and with reflections on past and present movements, Steve Addison provides a roadmap for leaders who want to multiply disciples and churches to the ends of the earth. Whether pioneering on the edge, riding a wave of expansion, or stuck in suffocating decline, The Rise and Fall of Movements addresses each phase in the movement lifecycle, helping leaders identify their stage and align themselves with God's purposes.
Pioneering Movements
Jesus pioneered something completely new in human history—a dynamic missionary movement intent on reaching the world. What does it take to lead movements like that today? Steve Addison shows how to follow Jesus' example, offering a vision of apostolic leadership that embraces Jesus' mandate to make disciples of all nations, in all places.
Your Part in God's Story
When Jesus rose from the dead, he found disciples who were defeated and disillusioned. Just like us. But in the forty days between his resurrection and his ascension, Jesus restored and prepared them for their worldwide mission. Spend forty days with Jesus as you explore forty decisive moments from Genesis to Revelation and discover your part in God's story. Invite Jesus to do for you what he did for those early disciples. He met them in their failure. He opened their minds to his Word. He showed them their part in God's story. He promised the power of the Holy Spirit. Then he set them loose on the world.
Growing Object-Oriented Software, Guided by Tests
Test-Driven Development (TDD) is now an established technique for delivering better software faster. TDD is based on a simple idea: Write tests for your code before you write the code itself. However, this "simple" idea takes skill and judgment to do well. Now there's a practical guide to TDD that takes you beyond the basic concepts. Drawing on a decade of experience building real-world systems, two TDD pioneers show how to let tests guide your development and “grow” software that is coherent, reliable, and maintainable. Steve Freeman and Nat Pryce describe the processes they use, the design principles they strive to achieve, and some of the tools that help them get the job done. Through...
Understanding PKI
PKI (public-key infrastructure) enables the secure exchange of data over otherwise unsecured media, such as the Internet. PKI is the underlying cryptographic security mechanism for digital certificates and certificate directories, which are used to authenticate a message sender. Because PKI is the standard for authenticating commercial electronic transactions,Understanding PKI, Second Edition, provides network and security architects with the tools they need to grasp each phase of the key/certificate life cycle, including generation, publication, deployment, and recovery.
