Description

Are you are sick of “how-to” Christian books that focus on better ways to “decorate” and landscape” so that your life as a Christ follower and your collective of Christ followers look good? Are you are looking for a book that helps you create a structurally sound spiritual life and church from the footings to the finishes? Blueprint is for you! Two houses, two builders: two very different outcomes. Both structures are well maintained, the fit and finishes appealing, inside and out. Picture perfect. But the storm is coming. One will be completely washed away while the other remains intact. Which house is your church? Which one your church community? Which one your personal spiritual life? Are you sure? Because appearances can be deceiving…If you desire the one that remains intact for all of the above, then this book is for you. “How-To” books that dress up the look of church and living for Christ have permeated the Christian-reading market, but a coat of paint and a nice hardwood floor does nothing to strengthen the structure needed to survive the storm. The problem is, most don’t know until the storm has done its damage that this visually-appealing version of Church and Christian living is built on a sand foundation, not rock. In a pandemic world and beyond, many are left with empty churches and empty lives. We have built who we are around “how-to” books which are the fit and finish, while very little time has been spent on the structure needed to weather the storm. Using a home-building metaphor, Blueprint encourages church leaders, pastors, volunteers, new Christ followers, and lifelong Christians to build or rebuild on a solid footing with quality building materials that will survive the storms that inevitably beat and batter. You know what looks good, but do you understand what you need to build it right? This is not a cookie-cutter plan from a how-to book. It is a design you can personalize, a guided way to seek, above all else, God's plan done God's way through God's chosen resources. If you are ready to strip your life and your church down to the foundational supports and create a structure that will support whatever storms blow into your life and church, it’s time to get out the plans, a Blueprint for the Christ follower and collective of Christ followers, and build a life and a church community that can remain structurally sound whatever comes our way!

  • Solid Foundation for You & Those You Fellowship With
Using the concept of building a house from scratch, David takes us through a journey of developing not only our walk, but also how we build our church (collective kg Christ followers).

  • A Perfect Book For This Day And Time
One of the first things that stands out about this book is how J. David Peever writes so comfortably as a friend and fellow pilgrim with all of us on a journey that follows Christ. From the very first page, the tone is just right, neither too “preachy” or too “casual.” The author takes a genuine look at where we are, how we got here, and where we need to be. He does not do this in a way that would suggest “do these easy steps and you are guaranteed success.” This book encourages a great deal of self-examination and corporate-examination. This makes it a perfect good for this day and this time and for whatever the future may hold. I would particularly recommend this book for the Lenten season as well. Recently the rector of our own church suggested that for Lent we may want to “fast our opinions and replace them with those of The Holy One.” That is what this book’s author suggests as well. In his own unique way, he encourages us to give up our own thoughts and our own opinions about what God wants us to do and who God wants us to be and instead adopt those of God. I believe this book will help us all to do that throughout the year, not just during the season of Lent. Of all the positive things I can say about this book, perhaps the best is that the book reads like warm advice from a dear friend. I highly recommend this book. ... show more

  • How solid is your foundation?
Blueprint: for the Christ Follower and the Collective of Christ Followers by J. David Peever compares building a house structure to building a church community going from the ground up. Filled with thought-provoking questions, Dave asks the reader to look beyond outward facades to what lies beneath, starting with the footer, all the way through de-cluttering and knowing whether to repair or replace. He suggests Christ followers ask themselves, why do we do what we do and why do we do it that way? Blueprint is not a how to have a perfect life, or church, in 10 easy steps type book. Nor is it a book to rush through. It is a book filled with serious questions for each of us to ask our self. How solid is our foundation? Are the supports sturdy? Are the walls sound? Does it all tie back to God as the footing everything else is built upon? Through this book, Dave challenges the reader to ask themselves what their life and church are built on. The goal being to make sure we build on God’s plan, done God’s way, in God’s timing, with God’s chosen resources. ... show more
