Be warned--reading Kingdom Collaborators may be hazardous to your comfortable life. It will change your status quo, muddy your hands, and free you from a predictable life!--Lee Clamp, team leader for evangelism, South Carolina Baptist Convention Perhaps, for such a time as this, Jesus is changing our minds as it relates to understanding the call of all people. Perhaps now is the time that God is calling kingdom leaders to agitate for the kingdom, knowing that the agitation and advancement of Gods kingdom is done with collective force and efforts. Kingdom Collaborators is the book to arrest your heart, expand your understanding, and prod you to move into Gods calling no matter if you are clergy or congregant!--Aleze M. Fulbright, director of leadership development, Indiana Conference of the United Methodist Church Kingdom Collaborators continues the winsome and wise equipping mission of Reggie McNeal. But this book is much more than the sum of its brilliant analyses and insightful syntheses. Kingdom Collaborators is infused with the life of the kingdom--the breath of the Holy Spirit--from the first page until the last. The eight attributes, applicable stories, and concrete practices are a necessary wake-up call for a Western church often paralyzed by the hostility and indifference outside her walls. The insights are vital to majority world Christianity as well, with its challenges of making disciples that bridge Sundays ecstasies and Mondays ethics. I was arrested by McNeals unique combination of gracious and humble storytelling and prophetic confrontation with the status quo that compels both personal and community changes. I heartily recommend this book to all women and men of influence in all domains of society as they work to advance the justice, peace, and joy of the kingdom. These insights will be particularly helpful to church planters and local church revitalizers as they patiently labor for eternal impact.--Charlie Self, director of city development, Made to Flourish; professor of church history, Assemblies of God Theological Seminary This book speaks of collaboration outside of the church walls and simply but strongly suggests that we can help drive the mission of Jesus through the work we do as Christians in our communities. As someone whose job intertwines a passion for education and a mission to serve, Kingdom Collaborators speaks to my heart.--Yoland Anderson, director of family and community engagement, South Carolina Department of Education True leaders possess an internal passion to improve themselves for the sake of others. Imagine what could happen if you became such a leader. In Kingdom Collaborators, Reggie McNeal provides a fresh-cut path for anyone willing to increase their effectiveness. Its a journey worth taking because it will deliver what our world needs most: action.--David Staal, president and CEO, Kids Hope USA Kingdom Collaborators is both a declaration of kingdom impact for the soul of the church and a call to eliminate the sacred and secular divide. Reggie McNeal has always been insightful; this book takes his keen insights and fashions them into a highly readable narrative. If you are a pastor, follower of Jesus, or someone who wants to make a difference in our world, this is your manifesto!--John Jackson, president, William Jessup University No one sees the big picture of Gods kingdom better than Reggie McNeal. In Kingdom Collaborators he tells inspiring stories and describes practical steps for how church, business, and social sector leaders can work together for greater kingdom impact.
