Blog postIt was an intimidating moment.
The pastor of a church three times the size of anything I ever led demanded that I “justify” the existence of a Microchurch since it would be too small to host an elder board.
Before I could answer, a friend jumped in, “Ralph, don’t answer him until he first justifies his megachurch through the eyes of the last half of the book of Acts.”
I was off the hook for what would have become a bloody argument because I know the church’s history baYesterday Read more -
Blog postThis is the unhappy story of unchurched Harry and Mary.
Harry and Mary came into our lives as a useful metaphor for those we would seek to evangelize. Useful for a while, that is.
The law of unintended consequences jumped in and made a mess of things. Churched vs unchurched eventually supplanted actual talking to people about Jesus. But that wasn’t the worst of it. Turns out Harry and Mary look like our cousins, whoever we are.

Blog postInviting someone to church is not evangelism. Bringing them into a friendship with Christ is.
The Bible describes our task as reconciling others to Christ. The suggestion is that of a broken friendship renewed. It’s less about conversion and more about a growing friendship.
Since most people believe in God as children, even adults who reject faith are candidates for reconciliation to that still small voice.

Starting a New Church
Aug 31, 2011
by
Ralph Moore
$12.99
According to the author, perhaps our greatest responsibility is to evangelize our own generation. Yet established churches are not able to do that. In fact, rising generations of Americans live in ignorance of Jesus Christ and have no moral absolutes. Aggressive church planting, the author believes, is the answer to the problem, because new churches focus on the needs of each new generation and present biblical truth in the cultural context that best reaches those people. The objectives of this book are to lay down the challenge to consider becoming a church planter while at the same time screen out wishful thinking and focus on the practical challenges of church planting. This authoritative and edgy message is the next thing in evangelism.

The Great Commission is to make disciples. Renowned church planter and pastor Ralph Moore shows leaders why a focus on making disciples is the essential next step once a church is planted. This biblical, practical handbook will guide churches of any size to focus their ministries around Jesus's command to his followers to make disciples of all nations. Making Disciples offers a model of church ministry that sees every member as a minister, and it will become an indispensable resource for equipping a new generation of disciple-makers.

Churches in North America are bigger than ever, but their slow rate of growth cannot keep up with population increases. Existing churches simply cannot add enough new believers! The good news is that by multiplying--steadily and strategically planting new churches that, in turn, plant new churches--the global Church creates more of what Ralph Moore calls harvest points. In How to Multiply Your Church, Pastor Moore shows church leaders and pastors why multiplication is the key to growing God's global kingdom in their communities, and he offers them proven methods for implementing multiplication in their existing churches. Countless leaders have found an indispensable resource in starting a new church because of Pastor Moore's vast firsthand experience and practical wisdom. How to Multiply Your Church is the next leap forward for those who long to see God's kingdom increase.

You Could Write For Amazon: Beginning Steps For Beginning Authors (Pastors as Authors Book 1)
Mar 12, 2014
by
Ralph Moore
$5.99
You Can Publish Through Amazon
The world needs the information rattling around inside your brain.
The driver for this little book is the fact that there are too many untold stories in the world.
This book is for you if you struggle with writing or with technology.
Overcoming Process Intimidation
I often meet people with great stories. Many have the makings of a book inside, but feel intimidated by the writing process.
Fear of the process is the primary reason why people never pen their life-message. I'll show you how writing can be easy and fun. This book is a guaranteedintimidation shrinker!
Fear Of Rejection
A second reason people don't write is a fear that publishers won't touch their stuff. This is valid. First-time authors face great difficulties, unless they bring alarge audience to market.
Publishers need to turn a profit. Their issue is quantity. You must bring a large built-in audience or a publisher can’t afford to work with you.
Amazon Has You In Mind
Amazon built two separate publishing companies for first-time authors, with small audiences.
Conventional publishers can't afford to invest in a book that might sell fewer than 2,000 copies. Because of Kindle and CreateSpace, "print on demand," Amazon can make money by printing a single copy of your book.
Questions For You...
Do you have a great story, but a limited audience? Would your story benefit even just a few hundred people? If so, keep reading...this book is for you!
Could use a book as an ultra-effective business card? Every candidate for US President begins their campaign by writing a book. In a world of sound-bites a book gives a person an opportunity to share their life, emotions, vision and values with an audience.
If It's Worth Reading, It's Worth Writing
Your book may inspire families to avoid the pain of divorce. You may save someone's life. My books on anxiety and stress continue to help people find their way out of the woods. I talk to thousands of people each year, but the books go to places I never will.
This short book hovers over three goals: A. To show what Amazon can do for you. B. To hold your hand while we get your thoughts into a readable format. C. To teach you the ins and outs of Amazon’s tools for publishing and marketing your stuff.
A recent USA Today poll shows that e-books accounted for 20 % of all book sales last year. Amazon Kindle owns nearly 80 % of that market. CreateSpace adds the possibility of selling paperback books at very little cost to themselves. This company is set to put you into print.
Thirteen Things You'll Learn:
1 How Amazon can afford to publish first time authors.
2 Six benefits unique to Amazon.
3 Seven ways in which Amazon will help you sell your book.
4 Why Amazon pays authors nearly five times as much as conventional publishers.
5 Three tools for smashing writer's block.&
6 How to get past the first draft roadblock.
7 Eight ways to hold a reader's interest.
8 A few simple disciplines to make your project much easier and fun to write.
9 How to get by with a little help from your friends.

Let Go Of The Ring: The Hope Chapel Story
Jun 18, 2019
by
Ralph Moore
$9.99
If you make disciples and want to multiply churches, this book is for you.
In its 6th edition since appearing in 1983 this book has helped several thousand pastors move from growing strong Christ-followers to multiplying churches. It will teach you to leverage your gifts in the lives of others. Ralph's story and the story of Hope Chapel is a challenge to let go of our ways for God's ways. Not the most charismatic speaker, he makes up for it with his writing.
The title came from a challenge by Ralph’s dentist over plans to leave a megachurch in California to start over in Hawaii, “You’ll never do it, Frodo, you’ll never let go of the ring. The big ones never do.”
The motive behind the book is to do things beyond our comfort zone and learned behavior. To believe in others when others normally wouldn't. To let go of our desire for self-importance for God's plans. In other words, to "LET GO OF THE RING".
Read and observe as one tiny congregation grows into a movement of more than 2,400 congregations (more than 200,000 people). Ralph's account of what it took to abandon security and begin again is three times inspiring. What sets it apart from other books on church multiplication is that this man actually experienced the story with all its bumps, bruises and victories. The book is short on theory and long on reality.
This story of the Hope Chapel mosaic of churches is funny and heartwarming, it also presents a simple, practical approach to making disciples and multiplying churches.
See how God turned a handful of people, with no money and few resources, into a movement operating on every continent.
You'll learn how individual surrender to God mounts up to allow ordinary people to make a great difference in the world.
What happened to these people could happen to you!
Gather:
1. The organic nature of making disciples through relationships.
2. Just how little material support you need to plant a church.
3. The power of God to turn broken lives into strong tools of his grace.
4. Why a promise "to love you... as is!" is important to the spread of the gospel.
5. Next steps in your own life.
In truth, ministry shouldn’t be such hard work. Disciplemaking and church multiplication ought to be easier and life as a leader shouldn’t be as difficult as it is. Perhaps you struggle in your dreams to make disciples and plant churches. Let Ralph Moore come alongside, through this book and the tools he offers on his blogsite, www.ralphmoore.net. He’s been in your shoes—hopeful to make a dent in the world, yet unsure of himself. Let his experience come alongside to guide you to where God wants you to go.
As you learn to walk the uncommon path, you'll find new ways to model the character of Jesus and discover his supernatural power to help you along the way.

Odds are not in your favor, but you can reverse them.Your book can allay suspicion, position you as an influencer and provide a roadmap for people as you first engage them. You really NEED to write a book including who you are, your calling, the struggles you've overcome to get where you are, your mission and the strategy which defines it.With Amazon Kindle publishing you can do all of this for free. A much better option than paying someone $7K to print a bunch of copies for you to store under your bed.You write, Amazon publishes. No one pays a nickel until you purchase copies at your "Author's Discount" to give away or sell. And, while you're doing that others will find and buy it at retail prices from Amazon. Everybody has a business card. If you're smart you have a church website and Facebook page, but these can't give you the credibility of a book, printed on paper. Doing this is a no-brainer.

How to Hire, How to Fire & How to Manage in Between
Nov 12, 2018
by
Ralph Moore
$9.99
Few responsibilities weigh heavier on church leaders than that of managing a church staff.
Most pastors find the reality of day-to-day staff management bears little resemblance to their preconceptions regarding how a church should function. This book brings New Testament love and wisdom to the everyday task of managing a church in the 21st Century.
You'll learn
- How to radically increase the number of volunteers in your church while lightening everyone’s load.
- Biblical disciplemaking lays the foundation for “succession management” where each team member prepares the person who will eventually assume their job.
- Practical steps to help you hire wisely. You’ll learn to avoid missteps in hiring that can ruin good friendships while destroying a church.
- A management system that breeds healthy communications within a staff, particularly regarding misconceptions over staff roles and expectations.
- How to overcome conflict before it gets out of hand.
- A lengthy set of inexpensive and real-world benefits to increase morale among both volunteer and paid staff.
- How firing an individual can destroy them and your church, or it can be a blessing to both—you’ll learn how to turn this distasteful chore into a grace that benefits everyone concerned.
Why this book and not another?
Overall, you’ll discover a step-by-step guide for ministry teams to embrace a fresh leadership culture that builds authority through trust and loving practicality. This is a great book for teams to read and discuss together.
Books on leadership tend to fall into the ditch of theory or cross the road to crash into canyon of stilted pragmatism. Ralph Moore avoids both. He presents an approach to church leadership centered on biblical relationships rooted in years of actual practice as a disciplemaker and church multiplier.

Prayer: Dare to Ask
Jan 3, 2003
$7.99
All Christians seek a better prayer life--ideally one where they connect with and have a closer relationship with God. Too many of us, however, have nagging feelings of guilt when it comes to asking God for what we want. Ralph Moore reminds us that it is absolutely okay to pray for God to meet our needs. In fact, we should do so with every expectancy that God will answer our prayers, because he loves us and always wants to help us. When we pray with a clear conscience and place our trust in him, all things are indeed possible. This simple, straightforward book provides answers to basic questions on prayer for all Christians--and for anyone who wants to understand prayer and how it can transform your life.

Defeating Anxiety
May 17, 2016
by
Ralph Moore
$5.99
Are you desperate to win your battle against anxiety?
You’re not alone, more than one in four Americans wrestles with anxiety. It is now our most treated emotional disorder.
Are you hassled by fears, worry or panic attacks? Do you toss and turn at night unable to shut your mind off long enough to fall asleep? Do you suffer panic over your health, job, family, money, or relationships? Do you war against timidity, self-doubt or general feelings of insecurity?
The truth is that these feelings are mostly rooted in fiction. You’ve learned to believe that the worst possible outcome is the only outcome. Trading those fears for reality is a major goal of this book.
Do others make you feel guilty for taking medications that get you through your day? Or do you somehow feel "weak" for needing outside help to treat anxiety and depression?
Could you use a dose of humor and practical tools to help you relieve anxiety? Would you like to learn how to "talk-back" to your doctor in order to get the help you need? Would you benefit from simple tips for re-gaining sleep? Want to know how to keep multi-tasking from making you crazy?
Need a couple of simple tricks for calming your nerves while driving? Are you hoping to forsake fear as a life partner? Would you like to stop thinking the world is about to fall apart? Could you use a few simple spiritual devices that teach you how to remove pressure from everyday living?
This short book bristles with help.
Having struggled through major anxiety issues Ralph Moore offers practical tools to help you defeat the monster. His helps range from medical, to spiritual, to simple pragmatic decisions.
Beginning with the fear that he had lost his own mind, “Pastor Ralph” found help from a local doctor. His experience taught him that medication does help, and that many people need freedom from feeling that taking meds somehow offends God.
The book uses humor and personal stories to deal with shame, guilt and fear. It even describes how driving in the slow lane can calm your nerves. There are tools for avoiding “catastrophic thinking.” Finally, it offers simple spiritual devices to help remove the pressure from everyday living.
This book will help you:

You’re not alone, more than one in four Americans wrestles with anxiety. It is now our most treated emotional disorder.
Are you hassled by fears, worry or panic attacks? Do you toss and turn at night unable to shut your mind off long enough to fall asleep? Do you suffer panic over your health, job, family, money, or relationships? Do you war against timidity, self-doubt or general feelings of insecurity?
The truth is that these feelings are mostly rooted in fiction. You’ve learned to believe that the worst possible outcome is the only outcome. Trading those fears for reality is a major goal of this book.
