    About this ebook

    It is quite easy to assume that if we understand the gospel accurately and preach it faithfully, our ministry will necessarily be shaped by it—but this is not true.  Many churches subscribe to gospel doctrines but do not have a ministry that is shaped by, centered on, and empowered through the gospel.  Its implications have not yet worked their way into the fabric of how the church actually does ministry.  These churches’ theological vision has likely arisen from something other than sustained reflection on the gospel.

     

    Gospel-centered ministry is more theologically driven than program driven.  To pursue it, we must spend time reflecting on the essence, the truths, and the very patterns of the gospel itself.  This eBook contains the first part of Center Church, “Gospel Theology.” In it, Keller examines what the gospel is and is not, and how churches can be shaped by, centered on, and empowered through the gospel.

      This one is my book of the year. It is a clarion call to be faithful to the Gospel, while having a theological vision that is contextualised faithfully to the environment in which we work. It concludes with a ringing endorsement of the importance of church planting. This is a book that engages heart and mind in mission, provokes us to thoughtful faithfulness and drives us to a clear theological vision of mission in our context. The best I've read o the subject. Although it's quite long, it is not filled with unnecessary padding, has a very clear structure and progression as you read through it.

      Timothy Keller is among the finest strategic thinkers focused on rethinking and renewing the Christian church to engage largely secular, urban populations. This is his best book and one of the best I've read on the topic. Powerful insights linked with unique experience in engaging the culture of Manhattan.
