Some e-books worth checking out

Thought I would make you aware of a few free e-books I found on the web recently. Although they look interested I must confess I have not read any of them yet. But check them out for yourself – let me know what you think.

The Resurgence has posted Grow: Reproducing Through Organic Discipleship by Winfield Bevans

Here is their blurb:

“Many churches have a linear discipleship program where they try to funnel everyone through the same process. Sadly, many times churches simply use the latest program or book in hopes that what works for a large church across the country in a different context will work for them. Organic discipleship is the opposite. Organic discipleship is an organic understanding of the spiritual formation that begins and ends with the gospel. Just as the physical body has to have an organic structure to hold it together while allowing it to grow and develop, likewise the body of Christ must have an organic structure that can do the same. Organic discipleship is not a program or curriculum; rather it is about learning the natural rhythms of discipleship within your church context.”

Tall Skinny Kiwi has linked to The Starfish Manifesto by Wolfgang Simson

“Probably the largest reformation of all times in Church history is in full swing. It is the combination of a threefold current initiative of God: moving from church to Kingdom as our legal base; moving from pastoral, teacher-based & evangelistic to apostolic and prophetic foundations; and departing from a market-shaped behaviour to a kingdom-shaped economy.”

Tim Challies has also made an e-book of his recent blog series Sexual Detox: A Guide for the Single Guy

In line with the above e-book, you could also check out Mark Driscoll’s Porn Again Christian
