Are you looking for something more than leadership tips, tricks, and techniques? Are you longing for a perspective on leadership that is developed from the rich story of the Scriptures? Storied Leadership offers just that. Jensen and Martel take their readers on a journey through the biblical narrative, drawing out rich and poignant ways that the scriptures help us to understand the world—and enable us to live and lead more authentically. Storied Leadership offers an encounter that will help anyone—from the pastor to the stay-at-home-mom to the CEO to the college student—influence more faithfully in a world groaning for redemption. Every practice emerges from a story about reality. The question is: What story is your leadership influenced by?

Reforming the Liberal Arts, published on the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, provides a nuanced account of the religious nature of higher learning. Drawing together studies in neuroscience, contemporary mysticism, and best practices in higher education, McIlhenny artfully argues that Reformational Philosophy provides the most biblically robust defense of the critical importance of a liberal arts education in our age of incoherence. More than simply offering a theoretical argument, the book contends that a liberal arts education provides a religious experience, a greater knowledge of self, world, and God. “This book sounds the major tones of a Reformed Christian Liberal Arts education, but augments it with zesty new notes: current research in brain studies, in the impact of technology, and in best educational practices. It is a chord anchored at the base in years of seasoned practice teaching and inspiring students.”Esther Lightcap Meek, PhD, Professor of Philosophy at Geneva College, Author of Contact With Reality: Michael Polanyi’s Realism and Why It Matters and other books“If the evangelical church wants to take seriously the challenges of secularism and its advances against the church, there is a pressing need for a pointed discussion about the intellectual formation of the next generation. McIlhenny’s work offers an informed, broad, and insightful introduction to this much needed conversation. McIlhenny provides a fresh look at an ancient line of thinking, distills with care the key blessings in a Reformed liberal arts education, and shows how this education provides the foundation for a life well lived.”Ben Merkle, DPhil, President of New St. Andrews College“Ryan McIlhenny constructs a new argument for the value of liberal arts education, appropriating the contributions of neuroscience to an understanding of human beings and their development as persons. Crucial is the brain’s orientation to collative structures that tend toward an integral horizon within which research and learning are to take place. At the same time he uses his own Reformed Christian emphasis on the ‘heart’ as the integral, God-ward concentration point of concrete human existence that helps to buttress the Christian understanding of the mystery of the human creature in God’s world. The result is a fresh and up-to-date defense of a venerable Christian educational project.”Bob Sweetman, PhD, H. Evan Runner, Chair in the History of Philosophy and Academic Dean, Institute for Christian Studies

Behind the work of most global missionaries are local churches. Our faith communities, from giant urban churches to small rural parishes, are necessary to the task of spreading the name of Jesus and the good news about His Kingdom beyond our borders. High-impact churches consider the work of global missions as a primary part of their daily life of faith together. ]On Mission Together is a clear and concise guidebook for any church wanting to make global missions extend beyond an annual offering or a Minute for Missions. Richard Noble-pastor, educator, and missions mobilizer-offers a clear and practical pathway toward making missions part of the fundamental DNA of your worshiping community. Half of the author royalties from the sale of this book goes to support the work of global missions.

There is a perfect storm undermining something important about America: the opportunity for people born into poverty to advance over their lifetimes. This book explores how to unleash opportunity in five key areas: early childhood, the graduation gap, foster care, juvenile justice, and predatory lending. For each issue Gerson explores the magnitude of the problem, Summers applies a theological framework for considering solutions, and Thompson tells the story of men and women who have journeyed through these issues. Social mobility has become increasingly stalled in America and the result is a class system in which birth equals destiny. Unleashing opportunity is now more important than ever.

"What if we??" For some, these three words and what follow them--irrespective of what those words may be--produce irritation and anxiety. For others, these three words and what follow them are necessary to offer with regularity, irrespective of what may or may not subsequently unfold. This book is characterized by the latter as expressed by the metaphor of dreams. The dreams specifically concern the project of Christian higher education. They were written and presented over the course of more than 20 years to a variety of audiences. Some are more "academic" and some more practical; some are more personal, even autobiographical. All are intended to catalyze new dreams for Christian higher education that are responsive to students, to social contexts and challenges, and ultimately to the Lord of all things.
