Randall House to release Visionary Church: How Your Church Can Strengthen
Families
(Nashville, Tennessee)
On September 10, 2021, Randall House and Rob Rienow will release Visionary Church: How Your Church Can Strengthen Families.
About the book: God calls churches and families to work together for the glory of
God and the advance of the Gospel. In recent years, we have seen unusual spiritual attacks seeking to divide our families and churches. God has revealed, in the pages of Scripture, an intentional strategy for how the church can equip and strengthen families, so that faith in Jesus will be passed through the generations. Visionary Church: How Your Church Can Strengthen Families will equip you with a Bible-driven game plan for how your church can partner with families for the sake of the Gospel.
Dr. Rob Rienow writes from the perspective of a husband, father of seven, and thirty
years in family ministry. You can connect with the author at
http://www.VisionaryFam.com
Features include: In the book, Rob Rienow shares God’s mission for the local
church and the family, which is followed with practical action steps for churches and
families to partner together in the Great Commission. Each chapter ends with
discussion questions, making this an ideal read for a ministry team, small group
study, or seminary class.
About the author: Rob Rienow’s most important ministry is loving his wife Amy and leading their seven children to love God. He serves as the founder of Visionary Family Ministries (visionaryfam.com), whose mission is to build the Church through a global reformation of family discipleship. He is a pastor, church planter, and author of several books including Visionary Parenting and Visionary Marriage. Rob has an M.A. in Theology from Wheaton College Graduate School, an M.Div. from Trinity International University, and a Doctor of Ministry degree in Christian Leadership from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. The Rienow family lives in Wheaton, IL.
