Where There Is Now a Church: Dispatches from Christian Workers in the Muslim World<\/a>, edited by James Nelson. GMI Books, 2015. 210 pages.<\/p>\n Just released from GMI, Where There Is Now a Church<\/a> provides seven case studies showing how God has established churches and church-planting movements among some of the world\u2019s Muslim peoples. Each case study is accompanied by thoughtful discussion questions and a list of the church planting practices it illustrates. An appendix, more than 50 pages long, explains, categorizes, and describes a more complete list of 68 \u201cfruitful\u201d practices for evangelism and church planting in Muslim settings.<\/p>\n This readable and encouraging book would be a great resource for church planters to read and discuss with teammates. It may also be of interest to supporters, students, future church planters, missiologists, and instructors. The language is non-technical, the stories are written in an engaging way, and many of the practices could also be applied in non-Muslim contexts.<\/p>\n Though it can stand alone, this book is the sequel to a helpful 2010 publication, Where There Was No Church<\/a>. You may want to read them both as well as From Seed to Fruit: Global Trends, Fruitful Practices, and Emerging Issues among Muslims<\/a> (2nd edition). All three are based on the work of a multi-agency team that conducts primary research, analyzes data, and trains field workers in fruitful practice principles.<\/p>\n \u00bb Learn more or purchase Where There Is Now a Church<\/a> for US$4.99 (ebook editions) or US$12.50 (paperback).
