George (Dr Lings in fact!) has finished a PhD on Anglican Ecclesiology, and Steve has written a book called mission-shaped evangelism, release date February 2010.
We have written books and articles with others to make training in today's mission more widely available. These include Equipping your Church in a Spiritual Age, available upon request from the Sheffield Centre, where Steve was one of the writers. George was in the group that wrote the Mission-shaped Church Report and follow on books such as Moving on in a Mission-shaped Church & Starting a Fresh Expression, all available from Church House Books www.chbookshop.co.uk.
We have also contributed to journals that explore how current theological understanding of Church and Mission is changing, such as the International Journal for the Study of the Christian Church (IJSCC).
