Every generation raises the same question: What does it really mean to follow Jesus in today’s world? A lot of people who believe go to church every Sunday, sing praises, and come home the same. But the gospel tells us to do more: to be Christ’s hands and feet every day. Beyond Sunday is one of the best Christian community books out there right now, since it has such a strong message.
This captivating book won’t let you settle for superficial faith. It tells Christians to become involved in real-world ministry, love those who are hurting, and create communities that show what Christ’s Kingdom is like. Beyond Sunday keeps the debate going about church accountability, discipleship, and the ultimate goal of God’s people as Christians try to figure out how to put their faith into action.
The Church’s Real Calling: Serve Outside the Wall
We hear many sermons about loving our neighbors, yet many churches have trouble helping those who live just next door. Beyond Sunday has readers consider important questions:
- Are we living the gospel outside of church?
- Does our religion have an effect on our neighborhood?
- Do others know us for loving or for judging?
This book makes you want to put your Christian faith in action. It reminds Christians that God didn’t send them to sit in church seats; He sent them out into a world that was suffering. When we live like Jesus, we really start helping the hurting, including the lonely single mother, the struggling adolescent, the destitute, the oppressed, and those who have been left behind.
Servant Leadership: The Heart of True Discipleship
Plenty of people want to be leaders in the church, but Jesus gave leadership a whole new meaning. In Beyond Sunday, servant leadership is more than just an idea; it is a way of life that is based on humility.
Servant Leaders:
- Values people more than initiatives
- Take action rather than speaking
- Love flourishes their leadership
- Carry other people to the sky level
Churches that utilize this method really do have a community impact because service-based leadership helps Christians trust each other, work together, and identify meaning in their lives.
