    Breaking Through Unfruitful Paradigms of the Past
  

*by D***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2009*

This is not a book on church planting for those who are afraid of change, correction, and even shifting to a new paradigm for training leaders.  It was forged in the furnace of failure to accomplish the goal of training leaders and shows the wisdom of course correction and the difference it makes. It is co-authored by Paul Gupta who deals with his experience in seeing traditional formal leadership training in a new way and missiological explanations by Sherwood Lingfelter to explain what has happened.The three major parts of this book are:1. How can a school train church planters?2. The birth of a national church-planting movement.3. Challenges to accomplish the vision.So here is a book that speaks to training institutions, church planters, and those who long to facilitate a movement that plants churches.  Here is help for moving to a new paradigm as a training institution broke with the traditional way of training in order to produce more effective pastors, church planters, and teachers.This book is a gold mine of information on seeing an indigenous church planting movement take place. The main means were by the use of non-formal training, being willing to constantly assess and correct the trajectory of a movement, and by teaching church planters to be cross-cultural missionaries.There is too much in this exciting book to give a full review but let's follow the advice of the late Paul Hiebert who states, "It is essential reading for those around the world who are involved in higher Christian education and church planting."  Endorsement in this book, p. 246.

    Healthy theological education in a church planting movement
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2012*

I appreciate at least 3 things about this book. First, I appreciate that it affirms theological education. I get the feeling that many think that theological education is a hindrance to, if not completely incompatible with, church planting movements. So I appreciate that this book affirms the vital long-term role that theological education can play in developing leaders; at the same time it recognizes honestly that formally structured theological education simply cannot keep pace with the quantity of leaders anticipated in a movement. Second, Dr Gupta is transparent about his "course corrections" and how they addressed those. That is really helpful. Third, the book shows the many forms theological education takes at various levels (and the different kinds of students drawn by each); this is a good challenge to those of us in theological education to take an honest look at how to effectively train leaders; there is no "one size fits all".

    Felt like reading my future.
  

*by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2014*

Great road map and encouragement for anyone looking to transition a traditional lecture-style training format into one more field and discipleship based. It has been a great help for our work in South Sudan.
