SIGNS OF THE TIMES
We occasionally highlight online resources that challenge and encourage us in our journey toward God’s vision for the Church.

Michael Budde: Is War Ever "Just"? -- No Small Endeavor Podcast
Pediatrician and former EP board member Brian Volck helps us imagine what living hopefully in the midst of intractable conflict might look like.
PAMPHLETS
We publish occasional pamphlets which intend to foster conversation about faithful discipleship in the local church. They embody our vision of Christian discipleship as an allegiance to the Gospel lived out in the Church taking precedence over all other loyalties. To order handsomely bound printed copies (for around $1 each), contact Wipf and Stock Publishers.
CULTIVATING COMMUNITIES
Cultivating Communities is a growing network of churches across North America, who desire to be conversant with the way of Jesus in their respective places. They journey with congregations who desire to cultivate a deeper life together in Christ, which overflows into tangible love for the communities in which they are embedded.
Beginning in 2024, Cultivating Communities and the Ekklesia Project have collaborated on the Cultivating Communities Series, a collection of books to aid churches on their journey of congregational formation. These titles are brief, accessible, and practical, ideal for reading in conversation with one another. Learn more about each book and purchase copies by clicking the links below!
