Introducing the Kingdom Matrix Jeff Christopherson

Commendation Quotes: Jeff Christopherson is one of the brightest missions minds in North America. In The Kingdom Matrix, he helps Christian leaders reconcile the altruistic impulses that so many unchurched people possess, with the hope of Christ that the church is uniquely positioned and commissioned to deliver. This isn't just a book of theories, but tested applications borne out of the context of his ministry. Commendation Quotes: The Church needs to be awakened to the reality of the Kingdom of God--His global movement that will end around His throne with men and women from every tribe, tongue, people, and nation. There is no voice in contemporary culture that understands this more than Jeff Christopherson. I am so thankful for this book that speaks straight to the heart of this issue. May the awakening begin!Publisher Marketing: This book questions how the church properly fits into the larger picture of God's activity. It is based upon three solidly biblical yet highly controversial assumptions: 1) At any given moment, I am either building the Kingdom of God or the dominion of Darkness. Period. 2) It is possible to participate in church expansion and unintentionally be an agent for shrinking the Kingdom of God. 3) It is possible to unknowingly value the Kingdom of God before acknowledging the value of its Source: the King.
