God's mission needs movement leaders.Jesus pioneered something completely new in human history-a dynamic missionary movement intent on reaching the world. His mission is as clear and as relevant today as in the days of the early church: to make disciples everywhere, baptizing them and teaching them to obey everything Jesus has commanded. But the potential of the church remains untapped. What does it take to lead movements that successfully carry out this mission?In Pioneering Movements, Steve Addison identifies what it takes to follow Jesus' example. Building on his previous books Movements That Change the World and What Jesus Started, he reveals the apostolic qualities and behaviors of biblical, historical, and contemporary pioneers who can guide church and ministry leaders today.This is a book for those who are called to embrace the mission-driven work that Jesus and his disciples began-making disciples of all nations, in all places.

Spend forty days with Jesus as you explore forty decisive moments from Genesis to Revelation and discover your part in God''s story.

Invite Jesus to do for you what he did for those early disciples. He met them in their failure. He opened their minds to his Word. He showed them their part in God''s story. He promised the power of the Holy Spirit. Then he set them loose on the world.

EL MOVIMIENTO QUE CAMBIÓ AL MUNDO

Jesús comenzó algo totalmente nuevo: un movimiento dedicado a hacer discípulos de entre toda tribu, lengua y nación. Sin Jesús no habría movimiento. El Señor resucitado continúa mostrando el camino. Cada nueva generación de discípulos debe sentarse a los pies de Jesús y aprender de su ejemplo como Fundador y Pionero.

El movimiento continúa hoy día. ¿Qué rol vas a jugar?
