Overview

ONCE WE START LISTENING TO GOD'S VOICE, WE REALISE HE IS A HOLY DISRUPTOR, AND NO PART OF OUR LIVES IS EXEMPT FROM HIS ACTIVITY. What comes to mind when you consider the prophetic? Fiery Pentecostal preachers? End times predictions? Political activism? New Age crystals? Founder of Accessible Prophecy, Cath Livesey, returns to Scripture to unpack a holistic, Jesus-shaped perspective of the prophetic, exploring how we, as the church, are collectively called to embody this ministry as a key part of our calling to become more like Christ. This is an invitation to welcome the holy disruption God longs to bring through the prophetic, allowing him to conform the body of Christ to the image of Jesus and to transform the world around us for the sake of his justice and righteousness. Holy Disruption dispels the myth that the prophetic is a solo enterprise or an optional extra and equips leaders to be confident in taking others on a journey of discovery to harness the prophetic in their lives and communities.

I can't think of a better title or subject for a book right now! We are in the midst of disruption and desperately need to know what to do. I am so thankful for this book. DANIELLE STRICKLAND, FOUNDER, WOMEN SPEAKERS COLLECTIVE AND INFINITUM; AUTHOR OF NUMEROUS BOOKS ON MISSION, SPIRITUALITY AND LEADERSHIP A well-researched, biblically-based and Jesus-centred book - such a gift as we seek the church's restoration to the shape Jesus intended. Cath authentically operates in the prophetic and teaching gifts, making this a truly exciting contribution. PAUL HARCOURT, NATIONAL LEADER, NEW WINE ENGLAND; AUTHOR, WALKING ON WATER AND GROWING IN CIRCLES Holy Disruption is one of the most important and timely books for the global church this year. Cath gives us an exceptionally comprehensive, biblical understanding of the prophetic that calls the church back into alignment with the person of Jesus and the true purpose of the prophetic. She not only gives formative, practical instruction but also paints an inspiring picture of a prophetically mature church whose feet are firmly planted in both the presence of God and a life of justice. CRYSTAL CRYER, NATIONAL COORDINATOR, 24-7 PRAYER SCOTLAND This is a book the church needs at this unprecedented time of change. It offers a map of the territory God is inviting his church into and will fill you with hope and vision for the future. Holy Disruption will equip you to climb the mountain and walk the road of all the prophetic ministry involves; and with others it will help you establish the culture God always intended for his church. REVD CANON JOHN MCGINLEY, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, MYRIAD, THE GREGORY CENTRE FOR MULTIPLICATION; AUTHOR, MISSION SHAPED LIVING Holy Disruption is what our churches need right now: a clear, comprehensive and convincing call to prophetic maturity in order to become all we are called to be as the body of Christ. Our church leaders need to hear this call and respond. Cath provides powerful, practical and scriptural support to help us understand what is at stake in this call and, importantly, to shape our response. The invitation of Holy Disruption is clear: to love and serve the world like Jesus and to live in the loving intimacy of the Trinity. I have been personally blessed by Cath's ministry and seen the transformative impact her teaching and leadership can have when it is embraced by churches and Christian communities. Holy Disruption brings together Cath's years of experience and wisdom and is a genuine gift from God to our world! RT REV DR ELEANOR SANDERSON, BISHOP OF HULL Cath Livesey introduces readers to a broad-ranging overview of biblical prophecy and church practice that will help anyone seeking to engage in prophetic ministry today. Livesey bridges common divides between contemplative, charismatic and justice perspectives, showing how prophecy equips the body of Christ in sync with apostle, teacher, pastor and evangelist functions. This comprehensive book - rooted in years of on-the ground engagement in Sheffield and extensive teaching and consulting on prophetic ministry - effectively closes the gap between worship and action, between hearing God and following Jesus concretely as a disciple. Holy Disruption equips us to become individuals and communities of discernment, presence and justice. BOB EKBLAD, CO-FOUNDER, TIERRA NUEVA & THE PEOPLE'S SEMINARY; AUTHOR, READING THE BIBLE WITH THE DAMNED AND A NEW CHRISTIAN MANIFESTO: PLEDGING ALLEGIANCE TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD
