Transform your community through hope, abundance, and persistent love.In a world seeking quick fixes to complex problems, three seasoned leaders offer a radically different approach in
100 Years Work, the patient, persistent practice of building abundance-based systems that create lasting change across generations. De'Amon Harges, Michael Mather, and Seana Murphy bring their distinct voices together in this powerful call to reimagine how we approach community development, ministry, and social transformation.
Three unique perspectives offer practical entry points for readers with different backgrounds, providing action-oriented guidance with specific steps you can implement immediately in your congregation and community. Included are real stories of transformation from healthcare clinics, educational programs, and faith communities. The biblical grounding shows how Scripture's vision of abundance and joy equips God's people with the courage to take necessary risks.
Rather than offering another quick-fix program,
100 Years Work is an invitation into the generational work of recognizing abundance, building genuine relationships, and creating systems rooted in love rather than scarcity. You'll discover how small, consistent actions today can reshape communities for decades to come. The result is a roadmap for strategic hope that doesn't depend on perfect outcomes but trusts in the transformative power of persistent, love-centered, Spirit-led work. As the authors remind us, "We want people to feel strategically hopeful—not pie in the sky but knowing they can do one or two things to contribute to this long trajectory of change." Equip the congregation to trust in the transformative power of persistent, love-centered work.
