Evangelicalism is in trouble. Surveying the modern evangelical landscape, professor Michael Svigel asks, "Why does evangelicalism appear to be spinning out of control, losing appeal to younger generations, dwindling in numbers, or selling out to pop culture to muster a crowd?" He seeks to answer this question by looking to the past—to a Retro Christianity. Calling for a return to evangelicalism's historical and theological roots, Svigel begins by addressing some of present-day evangelicalism's problems and explores what can be done to help churches regain a healthy perspective on doctrine. He then gives practical examples of what establishing a biblical, historical, and theologically sound foundation will mean for Christians as they think through aspects of church life and worship. As the numbers of those confused or disenchanted with evangelicalism continue to grow, Svigel's book meets a timely need and will benefit many readers with his balanced argument for preserving the evangelical faith.

The purpose of the Sunday school is to teach the word of God; its power brings about the spread of justice and equality in society. It aims at developing a society that believes in living with peace and harmony. Sunday schools aim at helping people from all age groups to adopt the principles of God. Sunday school education intends to educate people the ways to adhere to ideals in life. At times, this involves the teaching of scriptures from the Bible. Learning what the Bible has to say helps the people meet with God. Enabling the connection of a common man with God is a primary purpose of Sunday schools. They aim at bringing about a spiritual development for their students. The purpose of Sunday schools is indeed worthy. One must not ignore the fact that Sunday schools offer the group an opportunity to be a part of the mission of Christianity to establish equality, peace and harmony in society. They aim at the creation of a society based on the principles of Christ and serve as excellent platforms to move closer to God.

The Church Growth Movement has divided devout Christians. Even though Rainer is an advocate, his aim here is to present an objective view of the movement--its history, the theology associated with it, and the principles which seem to separate churches that grow from those that don't.

This new book from top Christian education professionals integrates biblical foundations, educational theory, and practical insights into a new curriculum formation approach for the local church. Uniquely identifying curriculum as a means of ministry through the metaphor of mapmaking, it shows how believers are lost along the spiritual journey without a study plan, having no clear destination or reliable path to follow toward maturity. Detailing the theological, educational, and pastoral dimensions that make a curriculum Christian, the text is arranged into four sections: (1) rationale for curriculum, (2) curricular foundations, (3) curricular theory, and (4) the practice of curriculum. Covering areas from children’s ministry to adult education, contributors include editors James R. Estep, Karen L. Estep, and Roger White as well as Holly Allen, Mark H. Senter III, Michael S. Wilder, Timothy Paul Jones, and Brett Robbe.

No matter what people may think, feel, and say, Sunday school ministries are never going away. They are the Christian education ministry impacting the most children across the country, maybe even the world. Sadly, too many Christian congregations' Sunday school ministries are floundering. Poor attendance, lack of direction, zero enthusiasm, and trouble seeking and keeping volunteers have church leaders sighing, "What do we do about Sunday school?" It doesn't have to be that way. Dr. Joel A. Nelson's book What Do We Do About Sunday School? What 44 Years of Ministry Has Taught Me provides a tightly written, well-researched, hyper-practical, and very entertaining pep talk for how to create and maintain a winning Sunday school ministry. The book challenges its readers to seriously consider the following questions: Why do we care about Sunday school? What do we want Sunday school to be? How do we make a quality Sunday school happen? How do we find the winning Sunday school team? What Do We Do About Sunday School? What 44 Years of Ministry Have Taught Me ends with final encouragements and discussion questions for each book section, inspiring readers and Sunday school teams to carry on the Sunday school turnaround conversation and process.
