God on the Move: Making Disciples Among the Nations (Paperback or Softback)

Movements Impact Millions

Countless stories have emerged about powerful movements of God drawing hundreds of thousands from unreached people groups into saving faith. These testimonies reflect the fresh and transformative ways God is working through movements, known as Church Planting Movements and Disciple Making Movements.

Motus Dei (2021) offered a groundbreaking, scholarly exploration of these movements--filling a critical gap in mission literature. Now, God on the Move makes that rich insight accessible to a much broader audience. Designed for everyday readers, busy missionaries, and global believers alike, this guide distills and simplifies key ideas from Motus Dei, without sacrificing depth or credibility. With inspiring case studies, biblical reflections, and practical insights from around the world, God on the Move serves as both introduction and invitation--to witness, understand, and join in what God is doing through modern-day movements.

Readable, relevant, and rooted in solid research, this timely resource is for anyone eager to see how the gospel is multiplying across the nations today.
