Boxed Leader Kit for a seven-week curriculum exploring how a church should be a counter-cultural community.
Part of the Gospel Shaped Church series.
Gospel Shaped Church is a curriculum based on the five characteristics of gospel ministry that lie at the heart of The Gospel Coalition that will help whole congregations pause and think carefully and prayerfully about the kind of church they are called to be.
This seven-week whole-church resource explores what it means to be a counter-cultural community that lives as a light in the darkness. This Leader’s Kit contains everything you need to evaluate, plan, promote and run an engaging and immersive program with your church.
Inside the Leader's Kit, you will find a copy of the Leader's Guide, a copy of the Member's Handbook and the seven teaching videos presented by Vermon Pierre, in both digital download and DVD formats (running time: 140 minutes). Please note, this DVD is available in NTSC format only (All modern DVD players play NTSC in the UK). You will be able to download digital copies of the videos with a code contained in the kit.
How should Christians live? The church should be a distinctive community of God’s people—but how different are we from the rest of the world? This track helps us untangle some of the false ideas and traditions that evangelicals have had in the past, and reveals the more deeply challenging picture that emerges from Scripture.
This flexible resource will train your whole church through teaching, preaching, daily reading and small-group Bible study and discussion—or any combination of those elements. The overall aim is that your church will embark on a journey to discover the kind of people they should be as they are shaped by the gospel of Jesus Christ.

This is part of the five-track Gospel Shaped Church curriculum developed with The Gospel Coalition from its ministry aims. It is designed to take the whole church family on a journey to discover how the gospel should shape every part of their life and witness. The full range is:
• Gospel Shaped Worship
• Gospel Shaped Outreach
• Gospel Shaped Living
• Gospel Shaped Work
• Gospel Shaped Mercy
"The Gospel Coalition believes in the priority of the local church, and that the local church is the best place to discuss these five ministry drivers and decide how to integrate them into life and mission. So, while being clear on the biblical principles, these resources give space to consider what a genuine expression of a gospel-shaped church looks like for you in the place God has put you, and with the people he has gathered into fellowship with you."
- Don Carson and Tim Keller
I brought this as we are covering this course at our church. The course is very well delivered and gets you thinking how you can be a better light to others, I would definitely recommend for church groups. It stirs up good conversations.
