Dave Browning: Deliberate Simplicity: How the Church Does More by Doing Less (Leadership Network Innovation Series)
Pastor Dave Browning writes not of theory but of practice in this must read church leadership book "Deliberate Simplicity." The idea that "Large churches have demonstrated for the past three decades that “more” can be “more.” Deliberate Simplicity demonstrates that “less” can also be “more” and in this way is a “new equation” for church development." An Axis Staff Book Review of 4 stars. (***)
Ed Stetzer: Viral Churches: Helping Church Planters Become Movement Makers (Jossey-Bass Leadership Network Series)
I learned a while ago to read anything that Ed Stetzer writes. The truth is everyone of us is a church planter in some way shape or form. Where ever your feet take you the church is! Check out this book to further glean findings and thoughts that can lead to Kingdom Movements. An Axis Staff Book Review of 3 stars. (***)
Michael O. Emerson: Divided by Faith: Evangelical Religion and the Problem of Race in America
This book was the catalyst for Bill Hybels in his "2nd Conversion" that has forever changed his view and commitment to Racial Reconciliation. I recently picked this book up as well and it has wrecked me in much needed ways. If Racial Reconciliation is an area of growth and development for you we highly recommend you picking up a copy. An axis staff book review of 4 stars! (****)
Darrell Guder: Missional Church: A Vision for the Sending of the Church in North America (The Gospel and Our Culture Series)
If you are part of Axis or wondering why we are doing what we're doing then give this book a read. An Axis Review of 4 stars (****)
Gary Hamel: The Future of Management
"The Future of Management" provides case studies of Gore, Google, and Whole Foods as well as tons of insight into how "we're" still leading like we did during the industrial revolution. CRAZY! That said pick this book up if your into business, leadership, future of the Church, or mustaches. An Axis Review of 4 stars. (****)
Josh James Riebock: mY Generation: A Real Journey of Change and Hope
This book is a must read! Coming in October at the Axis Experience Josh will release his book to the public starting with the Axis Community. Josh is an incredible friend, amazing writer and communicator as well as practitioner of what he teaches in Austin, TX where he resides. (****)
Scot McKnight: The Blue Parakeet: Rethinking How You Read the Bible
A distinguished theologian, teacher, and writer, Scot McKnight also happens to be a long time Creeker, good friend of mine, and father to my old college roomie Lukas. The Blue Parakeet is an incredible book and a must for those looking to further understand how to interpret scripture. An Axis Staff review of 4 stars. (****)
Chip and Dan Heath: Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die
If your a fan of "The Tipping Point" by Malcolm Gladwell then you'll most likely really enjoy this read. A recent guest at the Leadership Summit Chip and Dan Heath offer compelling insight around making ideas stick. A 4 star rating review by the Axis Staff. (****)
Gary Hamel: Leading the Revolution: How to Thrive in Turbulent Times by Making Innovation a Way of Life
Gary Hamel not only has one of the most amazing mustaches that I've ever seen, he also happens to have an incredible mind and thoughts on leadership. A 3 star review and one you'll enjoy. (***)
Dave Gibbons: The Monkey and the Fish: Liquid Leadership for a Third-Culture Church (Leadership Network Innovation Series)
This book was written by a friend of mine named Dave Gibbons. Dave is a hero of mine and a prophetic voice for this generation as well as how to lead the future of the church. A recent Summit speaker Dave is the founding pastor of Newsong Church in Irvine, CA. (***)
