We're 2 months into the year 2007, and we're doubly excited to feature 2 books for the month of February! The Big Idea and the Blogging Church!
The Big Idea: Focus the Message -- Multiply the Impact was written by Dave Ferguson, Jon Ferguson, and Eric Bramlett, and zones in on this: Nothing is more dangerous than a single compelling idea that is lived out and nothing is more harmless than lots of little ideas never applied. By creatively communicating one Big Idea every week your church will transform people into genuine Christ followers who live out the mission of Jesus. Less is more!
The Blogging Church: Sharing the Story of Your Church Through Blogs was written by Brian Bailey with Terry Storch, offering church leaders a field manual for using the social phenomenon of blogs to connect people and build communities in a whole new way. In this book, you will find the why, what, and how of blogging in the local church. The book is filled with illustrative examples and practical advice, plus contributions from five of the most popular bloggers in the world!
Similarities between the 2 books:
- both have websites - www.thebigideaonline.org and www.bloggingchurch.com, respectively
- both authors are active bloggers (here and here)
- both are published in partnership with Leadership Network
- both describe how a church can communicate more effectively
- any other similarities you've noticed?
Get your copy and come along with us as we dig into these books this month!
