Flyover Church: How Jesus' Ministry in Rural Places Is Good News Everywhere (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781513813721)

Christ is present and at work in rural communities. How do we lead from that reality?

The temptation to operate from a scarcity mindset is stronger than ever. The tensions unleashed over the past few years--which led to skepticism, breakdowns of trust, declining church attendance, and uncertainty around community ministry--continue to linger in and among our rural churches. Yet God's loving, redemptive work is happening in all places, no matter how small or far-flung.

In Flyover Church, Brad Roth, the author of God's Country, describes how rural ministry shares soul-deep commonalities with the church in every place. And he speaks a hopeful message into the distinct challenges--and promises--faced by rural communities. Tracing Jesus' ministry and bountiful work among the small-town people and places in the gospel of Mark, this book offers a vision for ministry tailored to rural settings. Pastors and leaders everywhere will be encouraged to approach ministry from the reality of God's abundance.
