About the Authors
Dan White Jr. coleads Axiom Church in Syracuse, New York, and is the author of Subterranean: Why the Future of the Church Is Rootedness.
Alan Hirsch is the founding Director of Forge Mission Training Network. He is the co-founder of shapevine.com, an international forum for engaging with world transforming ideas. He leads Future Travelers, a learning journey applying missional-incarnational approaches to established churches and is an active participant in The Tribe of LA, a Jesus community among artists and creatives in Los Angeles. Known for his innovative approach to mission, Hirsch is a teacher and key mission strategist for churches across the western world. His popular book The Shaping of Things to Come (with Michael Frost) is widely considered to be a seminal text on mission. Alan's recent book The Forgotten Ways, has quickly become a key reference for missional thinking, particularly as it relates to movements. His book ReJesus is a radical restatement about the role that Jesus plays in defining missional movements. Untamed, his latest book (with his wife Debra) is about missional discipleship for a missional church. His experience in leadership includes leading a local church movement among the marginalized as well as heading up the Mission and Revitalization work of his denomination. Hirsch is an adjunct professor at Fuller Seminary and lectures frequently throughout Australia, Europe, and the U.S.
JR Woodward is the national director of church planting with V3, a missional church-planting movement, and the author of Creating a Missional Culture.
"This back-to-basics book on pastoral theology could benefit the
involved layperson as well as pastors. Indeed, much of the book
explains how to stoke lay involvement in a way that's real,
practical, Spirit-driven, and faithful."
