James Emery White Ministry Collection (6 vols.)

Pastor and church-growth expert James Emery White has challenged his fellow pastors and leaders to reach the unchurched—rather than relying on transfers from other congregations to fill their pews. His own church proves the effectiveness of his approach, boasting 70 percent of its growth from the previously unchurched.

This collection brings together some of this proven leader’s most influential and practical works. White walks pastors through the difficult process of ministry evaluation, takes an honest look at the enormous challenges of contemporary ministry, and teaches practical lessons you just can’t get in the seminary classroom. His down-to-earth introduction to the faith, A Search for the Spiritual: Exploring Real Christianity, is a great resource to study for yourself in Logos, then recommend to the spiritual seekers in your life. Plus, this collection includes White’s influential The Rise of the Nones: Understanding and Reaching the Religiously Unaffiliated, a no-nonsense guide to reaching the fastest-growing religious group in the United States—those who check the “none” box on national surveys.
