The Whole Man, Volume III: The Life of Wholeness - Formation, Community, and Mission in the Restored Church
A Comprehensive Vision for the Daily, Relational, and Missional Existence of the Restored Church
We have laid the theological foundation. We have built the altar of encounter. Now we must live the life.
The Whole Man, Volume III: The Life of Wholeness is the culmination of the trilogy. It takes the truths of Volume I and the liturgies of Volume II and translates them into a comprehensive vision for the daily, relational, and missional existence of the restored Church.
This volume addresses three essential dimensions:
Formation - The intentional process of becoming like Christ. How are we shaped into the image of Christ in spirit, mind, emotions, body, relationships, and vocation? What practices, rhythms, and disciplines sustain formation over a lifetime?
Community - The relational environment of belonging and healing. How do we build authentic community, heal relational wounds, and practice the one anothers? What marks, practices, and culture define authentic community?
Mission - The missional expression of wholeness in the world. How do we embody the gospel through witness, service, healing, justice, reconciliation, and disciple-making? How does the Church participate in God's mission of restoring all things?
This is not a book about theory. It is a book about life. It is a book about the daily rhythms, the relational practices, the communal structures, and the missional calling of the restored Church.
Within these pages, you will find:
Theological foundations for formation, community, and mission
Practical practices and rhythms for the life of wholeness
Guidance for pastors, leaders, and believers seeking to live out the life of wholeness
A comprehensive vision for the Church as a formation community on mission
Complete appendices including a Rule of Life template, formation exercises, community covenants, prayers, and a scriptural harmony
Whether you are a pastor seeking to build a formation community, a believer longing to live out your wholeness daily, or a leader wanting to guide your church into mission, this book is for you.
Key Themes:
Formation of the whole person-spirit, mind, emotions, body, relationships, vocation
Authentic community-belonging, healing, and the one anothers
Missional life-witness, service, healing, justice, reconciliation, disciple-making
The eschatological hope that sustains formation, community, and mission
The Church as a formation community on mission
Who This Book Is For:
Pastors and leaders building formation communities
Believers longing to live out their wholeness daily
Small groups seeking authentic community
Churches wanting to recover their missional calling
Disciples desiring to grow in Christlikeness
Missionaries yearning to see the Church become the light of the world
Step into the life of wholeness.
Be formed. Belong. Go.Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers. - 3 John 1:2
Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy... - Jude 1:24
