OKPreacher Christian Resource Center has been running a series of interesting “seven questions” interviews with Southern Baptist leaders.
They recently interviewed Dr. Randy Stone who is the Education Minister at Southcliff Baptist Church in Fort Worth, TX. One of the questions was;
“What are some books that you recommend a minister read when they are considering implementing an educational program?”
The books below are the ones suggested by Dr. Stone.
How People Grow by Cloud and Townsend
Beyond the Box by Easum and Travis
Cultivating a Life For God by Neil Cole
The Church of Irresistible Influence by Robert Lewis
The Master Plan of Evangelism by Robert Coleman
Pouring New Wine into Old Wineskins by Aubrey Malphurs
7 practices of Effective Ministry by Stanley and Joiner
Kevin,
I haven’t read all of these, but of those that I have, “Beyond the Box” transformed my idea of “church” ministry. I learned the importance of focusing on Kingdom growth from that book. Also I consider Randy Stone to be a mentor of mine. I was glad to interview him.
In Christ,
Bro. D
