What do you do when your Christian life feels stale? When the royal road of faith feels more like a treadmill or dead end? When church is more endured than enjoyed? When the grand yearning of your eternal soul has become the great yawning of your daily life? Suppose it could be different. What if it is supposed to be different? What if the day-to-day adventures of the here and now can serve as pavers on the royal road to the Great Hereafter? Suppose instead of being a consumer of adventure that you were meant to be a steward of adventure? What if every fresh opportunity and risky challenge with an unknown outcome became a part of an earthly training program for eternity? 
From the sacred storehouse of Scripture and a wealth of stories across six decades of amazing adventures in his backyard and around the world, Scott Wigginton invites us to consider the role of adventure on the road to Christlikeness.

On the Way to Faith

Manley, Ken

The 5th Conference of the Australian Association for Mission Studies,  Whitley College, Melbourne, 2-5 July 2017This book is the creatively titled, collective output of the international mission scholars and mission practitioners who gathered at Whitley College, Melbourne, for the 5th Conference of the Australian Association for Mission Studies, July 2017.Together in this volume, theologians and missiologists contribute to the vitally important public debate about the place of indigenous peoples, migrants and refugees in Australia and elsewhere. Theoretical and practical themes are considered in the light of a shared commitment to biblical and theological interpretation, reflection and application. In doing so, the authors have contributed towards clarifying the task of missiology in previously unimagined contexts.The Australian Association for Mission Studies is a member body of the International Association for Mission Studies and gathers missiologists and theologians from a wide range of different Christian traditions.

Intergenerational cultural differences present serious challenges for effective teamwork, sustainable leadership, congregational unity and membership retention. Using historical and empirical research, Dr Michael Chu reveals the relatively low levels of cross-cultural competence among the pastors of Chinese churches in Sydney, and identifying the key factors that hinder cultural competency and conflict resolution: non-communication, language deficiency and low self-reflection. Using Cultural Intelligence as a theoretical framework for analysing and understanding the cultural factors beneath intergenerational leadership conflict, the book makes practical recommendations for pastoral leaders, theological educators and mission agencies for improving intercultural competence within Chinese Christian communities.

Intercultural Competence: Cultural Intelligence, Pastoral Leadership and the Chinese Church

Chu, Michael K

This unique discipleship book explores resurrection living through the biblical paradigm of the garden of Eden. It asks what life was like in the garden, what was lost, and how in Jesus holy resurrection living is restored.\nIn eight simple steps, we live a life of: 
- Overcoming Shame 
- Rediscovering Work 
- Embracing Wholeness and Wellness 
- Standing for Love and Marriage 
- Reclaiming Rest in the Sabbath 
- Committing to Stewardship and Creation Care 
- Sharing the Gospel and Being Missional 
- Loving God and Loving Others\nBased on the authors' lived experiences as pastors, mentors, and educators, Rise is a practical tool for personal discipleship, mentoring, and preaching. As Jim and Ross declare, "We are forgiven in order to be restored . . . If the forgiveness of the cross clears the ground of the soul, then the resurrection is the instrument with which the new gardener replants the Creator's image."\nJim Baucom is the Senior Pastor of Columbia Church, Virginia. Ross Clifford is the Principal of Morling College (Seminary), Sydney. Both highly sought- after speakers, they love bringing together the church and the seminary.
