It has recently become acceptable, and even fashionable, to refer to one's church as "missional." But many churches misunderstand the concept, thinking of "going missional" as simply being a necessary add-on to church-as-usual. This domestication of what is actually a very bold paradigm shift makes missional nothing more than one more trick to see church growth.With a light hand and a pastoral spirit, Michael Frost points out how church practitioners are not quite there yet. He reestablishes the ground rules, redefines the terms accurately, and insists that the true prophetic essence of "being missional" comes through undiluted. This clear corrective will take ministry leaders from "not missional yet" to well on their way. - Häftad, Engelska, 2013

What if our neighbors were our friends?
When Lynda MacGibbon moved from a small city in eastern Canada to a high-rise apartment in Toronto, she decided to follow Jesus' famous commandment to "love your neighbor" a bit more literally. In the past, she would have looked first for friends at her new job or her new church. This time, though, she decided to look for friends among the strangers who shared her apartment building-her actual neighbors in her new "vertical neighborhood."
In this charming and relatable memoir, MacGibbon tells the story of the community that took shape as neighbors said yes to weekly dinners and a writing group, Christmas morning brunch and even a Bible study. It's a story of the simple, everyday risk of reaching out with love to those around us, and of the beauty and messiness of real human relationships. It's a story of the risks-and rewards-of taking Jesus at his word.

Not In Kansas Anymore: Christian Faith in a Post-Christian World
Not in Kansas Anymore explores the church''s place in the strange, new post-Christian world of the twenty-first-century West.
The twelve contributors approach the topic from a variety of angles, as historians, theologians, biblical scholars, missiologists, political activists, social theorists, pastors, and educators, and offer perspectives that at times complement and at times collide with one another. Whilst their analyses and proposals vary, they share a common conviction about the importance of the issues under discussion and a common desire for the conversations of the academy to connect with the mission of the church and the changing world in which that mission takes place.
The end result is a chance to listen in on a conversation that is provocative, timely, and engaging, full of insights and implications for students and practitioners alike.

Exiles: Living Missionally in a Post-Christian Culture presents a biblical, Christian worldview for the emergent church--people who are not at home in the traditional church or in the secular world. As exiles of both, they must create their own worldview that integrates their Christian beliefs with the contemporary world. Exiles seeks to integrate all aspects of life and decision-making and to develop the characteristics of a Christian life lived intentionally within emerging (postmodern) culture. It presents a plea for a dynamic, life-affirming, robust Christian faith that can be lived successfully in the post-Christian world of twenty-first century Western society. This book will present a Christian lifestyle that can be lived in non-religious categories and be attractive to not-yet Christians.Such a worldview takes ecology and politics seriously. It offers a positive response to the workplace, the arts, feminism, mystery and worship. Exiles seeks to develop a framework that will allow Christians to live boldly and courageously in a world that no longer values the culture of the church, but does greatly value many of the things the Bible speaks positively about. This book suggests that there us more to being a Christian than meets the eye. It explores the secret, unseen nooks and crannies in the life of a Christian and suggests that faith is about more than church attendance and belief in God. Written in a conversational, easy-to-read style, Exiles is aimed at church leaders, pastors and laypersons and seeks to address complex issues in a simple manner. It includes helpful photographs and diagrams. - E-bokEngelska, 2010

"One who is strengthened by God professes himself to be an utter fool by human standards, because he despises the wisdom men strive for."--Thomas Aquinas"Go and do likewise. . . ."--Luke 10:37Missiologist Michael Frost is looking for the real Jesus--the man who didn''t care what people thought, worked on the Sabbath, touched the unclean, ate with sinners, and generally contradicted what was acceptable to the leadership of his day. He''s searching for the Jesus who embodies all the characteristics of the ancient tradition of the holy foolish paradigm as described and commended by Paul, the church fathers, and the medieval saints. And he finds him. . . . Saintly fools prefer life out in the open in the secular world, intentionally make themselves conspicuous, and consistently defy rules set by society. Frost directs our minds and hearts to the greater story of Jesus. He reminds us that following the Savior is rarely safe--and that Christ will continue to redraw our blueprint of what''s right and what''s righteous; and will persist in calling us to take the alternative, dangerous, ridiculous road walked by wise fools down through the centuries of the church.A much-needed and longed-for challenge to emergent, contemporary, and traditional gatherings and churches alike. - E-bokEngelska, 2011

Christianity is a surprising religion. It has changed the world in remarkable ways throughout history simply through Christians living out their faith. More recently, we’ve become afraid of a habituated Christianity, thinking that routines will rob our faith of its vitality. The net effect is that we’ve replaced the habits that surprise the world with habits that mimic the world―and both we and the world suffer for it.
Integrating the five habits in the BELLS model―Bless others, Eat together, Listen to the Spirit, Learn Christ, and understand yourself as Sent by God into others’ lives―will help you spread the gospel organically, graciously, and surprisingly.
Michael Frost, a world-renowned expert on evangelism and discipleship, makes evangelism a lifestyle that is fulfilling, exciting, effective, and easy to live out!

Många av oss skulle vilja leva ett mer utgivande liv där Jesu kärlek får märkas bland människor omkring oss. Oftast blir det inte av för att vi inte riktigt vet hur, och sällan upplever att vi får naturliga tillfällen till det. Den här boken inspirerar till en vardag där enkla vanor skapar möjligheter för oss att genom våra liv visa på Jesus och hans kärlek. Michael Frost är en tongivande röst inom den missionella rörelsen – en rörelse som vill stötta församlingar att präglas mer av mission. Han är även författare till över ett dussin böcker, medgrundare till det internationella nätverket Forge Mission Training och församlingsgrundare. Sagt om boken: "Det jag uppskattar med »Överraska världen« är att den kopplar ihop vår efterföljelse med några enkla, bibliska och vardagligt tillämpbara vanor. Våra vanor formar våra liv. Låt denna bok få inspirera dina vanor!" – Johan Valinder, föreståndare och pastor, Aspnäskyrkan "Att göra något till en vana tar tid och kräver upprepning. Författaren Michael Frost visar i den här innehållsrika, men snabblästa, boken hur kristen tro kan bli synlig genom ett utåtriktat liv som innehåller fem vanor. Dessa är välsigna, äta, lyssna, lära sig samt vara sänd. Och de innebär att varje vecka välsigna respektive äta med tre personer där minst en inte är med i din församling, lyssna till den helige Andes röst och lära sig mer om Jesus samt skriva dagbok om hur du sprider Guds rike vidare. Tidigt utvecklar Frost även uppmaningen att leva ett liv som väcker frågor. Jag inspireras av den – låt alla nyfikna frågor blomma. Tilltalet i den här typen av text är a och o. Som läsare vill jag bli lockad att ta nya steg, inte känna mig tvingad till det. Människor bör heller aldrig ses som (enbart) mål för mission. Vi är värda kärlek och respekt i egen sak och att bli visade det för vår egen skull är värt allt, oavsett vad det eventuellt leder till. I det avseendet tycker jag att Frost i alla fall delvis lyckas bättre än flera skribenter jag tidigare läst liknande framställningar av. Författare som vill mana till handling med en rad principer, vilka lätt kan ge intrycket av en manual att följa för att framgången ska bli ett faktum. Frost diskuterar till exempel personlighet i förhållande till val av tillvägagångssätt för att sprida evangeliet och det sticker ut som ett intressant bidrag. Originalet Surprise the world gavs ut redan 2016. Nu har boken alltså även getts ut på svenska. Med förord och efterord av Johannes Stenberg, pastor inom EFK, vilket blir en hjälp att förankra praktiken i svenska förhållanden. Dessutom har boken samtalsfrågor för diskussion i smågrupper och tips på vidare läsning. I slutet av varje kapitel där en vana beskrivs upprepas inte bara just den vanan, utan även de föregående. Meningarna om vanor blir därmed fler och fler för varje gång. Det är ett pedagogiskt upplägg, likt en presentation vid en föreläsning, som jag uppskattar." – Per-Johan Thörn Wistrand i Dagen - Häftad, Engelska, 2022

When the world feels like it's on fire, how should Christians respond?
Wars, climate disasters, political polarization, social upheaval, and cultural exhaustion-many people today feel like the world is unraveling. It's no surprise that anxiety, cynicism, and disengagement are on the rise. In Field Notes from a World on Fire, renowned missiologist (and author of Surprise the World) Michael Frost speaks directly to this moment, offering a hopeful, grounded way for Christians to remain faithful, compassionate, and engaged when the world feels overwhelming.
Drawing on Scripture, cultural insight, and inspiring real-life stories, Frost invites readers to resist despair by cultivating practices that sustain hope, action, and change. Rather than retreating from the chaos of our times, readers will discover how small, faithful acts-rooted in God's enduring love-can bring light, resilience, justice, and joy even in uncertain days.
In this book, you will discover how to:
Do what's possible instead of being paralyzed by the scale of the world's problemsRemember God's faithfulness and draw hope from the story of God's work in the worldLook for signs of light where others are living out the values of the kingdomManage fear, grief, burnout, and anxiety so you can respond with courage and clarityPractice humility and contrition while engaging in a fractured and polarized cultureHope is not naive optimism-it's the quiet courage to keep showing up with love, faithfulness, and joy, even when the world feels like it's burning. Field Notes from a World on Fire is an invitation to live that hope.
