I am a pastor at 
Today I spoke at Biblical Seminary for the installation of John R. Franke as the Lester and Kay Clemens Professor of Missional Theology. Gary and I will be discussing the challenges and opportunities the church faces in the Suburbs.
In my talk I promised that I would post some resources for further reading here on my blog. So, here it is.
This is a link to the paper that I wrote that started this whole thing for me.
Books:
- Al Hsu has put together a fantastic reading list here.
- Tom Sine’s new book “The New Conspirators” is a great companion to this conversation.
Some posts from my blog:
- Are You Rioting with the Suburban Mob?
- Four Movements of the Suburban Missional Church
- Personal Financial Accountability In the Church, A Way Forward
- A Holy (Suburban) Discontent
Some posts from other people’s blogs:
- Gary Alloway’s post: Finding God in Feasterville
- David Fitch’s post: The Idol Hath Fallen – the Financial Crisis and the Reshaping of the Landscape for Mission
Some blogs worth checking out:
- Al Hsu
- David Fitch
- Gary Alloway
- Joe Thorn
- Steve McCoy
- The Sub-Text – look especially at the resource page here.
