(BOOK REVIEW ) Resilient : The Fearless Future of the Church
One of the things that I am very passionate about is not only sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ but making sure my children know about it. Since I was able to see the powerful impact that knowing God had on my life as a young girl and teen, it is without question a need to instill in our children at a very young age.
Insert the book Resilient by Valerie Bell. This book is an absolute must-have for every church. I have already made it up in my mind that I’m going to give this to our Children’s Ministry pastor. Raising up the next generation of Christian leaders is not only important it is imperative. So what is Resilient about:
Resilient is an honest calling to ask robust questions about the future, it is a timely conversation in the midst of changing cultural landscapes, and it’s a love letter to the church to walk this road of child discipleship together.
Something special begins to happen when KidMin leaders and disciple-makers look beyond the tactics of everyday ministry and begin to focus their energy on the few, key factors that truly contribute to effective, long-term discipleship impact. Resilient child discipleship focuses on three key areas, essential for shaping long-term faith:
• Belonging: Highly relational ministry led by a loving and caring adult
• Believing: Deeply Scriptural ministry rooted in the truth of God’s Word and the power of
the gospel
• Becoming: Experiential ministry, designed to move kids from simulation to real-world
application of faith-based living
Resilient equips you with an innovative, biblical and proven child discipleship philosophy to
build your home and/or ministry around.
