Vintage Church has arrived in our warehouse and will be shipping soon.
The latest book in the Re:Lit series grows out of the vintage concept of taking timeless truths from Scripture—truths about church leadership, preaching, baptism, communion, and more—and contextualizing them to our contemporary culture in order to reach people with the gospel.
Mark Driscoll and Gerry Breshears tackle twelve practical questions about the church including:
· What is a Christian Church?
· Who is supposed to Lead a Church?
· Why is Preaching Important?
· What is Church Discipline?
· What is a Multi-campus Church?
· How Can a Church Utilize Technology?
We will post sample content in the coming weeks. In the meantime, here are some of the endorsements for Vintage Church:
“Driscoll and Breshears have teamed up to provide a new generation of pastors and Christian leaders with a biblically sound, tartly relevant, and crisply practical guide to understanding the church. This book lives up to its subtitle, Timeless Truths and Timely Methods. The authors’ wit, grit, and gravitas combine to make it an enjoyable and thought provoking must-read for twenty-first-century spiritual leadership.”
- Rick Booye, Senior Pastor, Trail Christian Fellowship, Eagle Point, Oregon; President, Pacific Bible College, Medford, Oregon
“Having treated us to Vintage Jesus and Death by Love, Mark Driscoll and Gerry Breshears team up again to provide a third installment that addresses the nature, life, and missional character of the church of Jesus Christ. Pastors, church members, and those who are just wondering about Jesus and his church will find this book to be very helpful. The expected topics—church leadership, preaching, baptism, the Lord’s Supper—are covered clearly and practically. What I especially appreciate is the discussion of often overlooked topics like church unity, discipline, and love, and the attention given to new topics like multi-site campuses and the use of technology. “Timeless” and “timely” are apt descriptions of this book on the church that is must reading!”
- Gregg R. Allison, Associate Professor of Christian Theology, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Vintage Church is a remarkable book. Mark and Gerry seek to be rigorously biblical and theologically faithful as they address the doctrine of the church. However, the real uniqueness to this book is its personal and practical insights. Remaining faithful to the gospel of Jesus, the authors help us think and see how to do church in a twenty-first-century context that presents both challenges and opportunities to the body of Christ. Timeless truths and timely methods indeed are woven together in a beautiful tapestry. This is a valuable work.”
- Daniel L. Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Gerry Breshears and Mark Driscoll combine the thinking of a theologian with the experience of an innovative church leader to bring us fresh approaches to ministry that are more relevant without being less biblical. This book is an inspiring application of what it means for the body of Christ to be ‘in the world but not of it.’”
-Dan Jarrell, Teaching Pastor, ChangePoint Church, Anchorage, Alaska
