Book Synopsis Philosophy, Who Needs It? by : Jason D. Crowder
Download or read book Philosophy, Who Needs It? written by Jason D. Crowder and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often skeptics charge Christians with having a blind faith. Unfortunately, believers have added fuel to the charges of skeptics by speaking of their faith illogically. But the Christian faith is not a blind faith. In fact, biblical faith is never a blind, irrational faith. Christianity rests firmly on the stone that was rejected by the builders, which has become the cornerstone--Jesus Christ (Acts 4:11). Living biblically requires thinking biblically, just as "to think biblically entails to live biblically," as Winfried Corduan notes in the Foreword. As followers of Christ, believers cannot separate biblical thinking and biblical living. These two behaviors are eternally connected not only in the person of Jesus Christ, but they stem from the eternal being of God the Father and his eternal truth. Christ mandates that his followers love God with their entire being--heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30). How are believers to go about living out this biblical mandate? Christian faith is a warranted belief. This is why it is so essential that Christians recognize the value and importance of philosophy and its proper place in Christendom and in the Christian's walk.

Book Synopsis Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples by : Sherry A. Weddell, Editor
Download or read book Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples written by Sherry A. Weddell, Editor and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is not the same thing to have known Jesus as not to have known him, not the same thing to walk with him as to walk blindly, not the same thing to hear his word as not to know it.... We know that with Jesus life becomes richer."-Pope Francis, The Joy of the Gospel In her first book, Forming Intentional Disciples: The Path to Knowing and Following Jesus, Sherry Weddell, cofounder of the Catherine of Siena Institute, captured the attention of Catholics across the globe as she uncovered the life-changing power that accompanies the conscious decision to follow Jesus as his disciple. Now, in the groundbreaking Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples, she has gathered together experienced leaders and collaborators whose exceptional field-tested wisdom and enthusiasm for transforming Catholic parishes into centers of discipleship and apostolic outreach is both inspiring and practical. The authors consider: The role of intercessory prayer in parish transformation How "fireside chats" can help a pastor connect with his parishioners and call them to personal discipleship and mission The co-responsibility of lay people andpastors in the work of making disciples The revolutionary impact of a discipleship approach to youth ministry How one parish successfully fostered a culture of intentional discipleship, and much more As Sherry asks in her own chapter, "Are we willing to answer the call and pay the price necessary to become a new generation of saints through which God can do extraordinary things in our time?"

Download or read book Naked Warriors written by Brian Childres and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our nation is in a crisis concerning healthy masculinity. The church is too. What is the solution? Destroying isolation in the church, one man at a time. Welcome to the Jesus Model of discipleship. It worked for Jesus and it still works today. The church is realizing that preaching and programs do not disciple men. Men disciple men. The most important thing that a church can do is to build an intimate brotherhood of men. That is what the churches in East Texas are doing. Why? They have realized that isolation is man's biggest problem. Once the issue of isolation is resolved and a man has true brothers, then genuine discipleship can finally begin. Naked Warriors shows the nuts and bolts of the Jesus Model of Discipleship, and how the local church can jump quickly into the men's movement that Jesus began. Although simple, this movement requires genuine faith and a deep love for the hearts of men. It is NOT a program nor is it a curriculum. It is definitely not a men's ministry. It is real life. It is what men are craving. The biggest beneficiary are local church pastors. They have the privilege of watching marriages get stronger, children and teens receive the love they need, while the church is rewarded with plenty of strong, humble servant leaders. Every church needs a men's revival. Come join us!

Book Synopsis The Unlikely Disciple by : Kevin Roose
Download or read book The Unlikely Disciple written by Kevin Roose and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hilarious and heartwarming, respectful and thought-provoking memoir of a college student's semester at Liberty University, the "Bible Boot Camp" for young evangelicals, that will inspire believers and nonbelievers alike. No drinking. No smoking. No cursing. No dancing. No R-rated movies. Kevin Roose wasn't used to rules like these. As a sophomore at Brown University, he spent his days fitting right in with Brown's free-spirited, ultra-liberal student body. But when Roose leaves his Ivy League confines to spend a semester at Liberty University, a conservative Baptist school in Lynchburg, Virginia, obedience is no longer optional. Liberty is the late Reverend Jerry Falwell's "Bible Boot Camp" for young evangelicals, his training ground for the next generation of America's Religious Right. Liberty's ten thousand undergraduates take courses like Evangelism 101 and follow a forty-six-page code of conduct that regulates every aspect of their social lives. Hoping to connect with his evangelical peers, Roose decides to enroll at Liberty as a new transfer student, chronicling his adventures in this daring report from the front lines of America's culture war. His journey takes him from an evangelical hip-hop concert to a spring break mission trip to Daytona Beach (where he learns to preach the gospel to partying coeds). He meets pastors' kids, closet doubters, Christian rebels, and conducts what would be the last print interview of Rev. Falwell's life.

Book Synopsis Cross-Cultural Missional Partnership by : Joshua Bowman
Download or read book Cross-Cultural Missional Partnership written by Joshua Bowman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-cultural partnerships in today's global environment are both challenging and necessary. Misunderstanding and miscommunication often lead to conflict between culturally diverse groups. Christians must understand and evaluate their own culture, the culture of others, and the text of Scripture itself, while remaining faithful to Scripture and relevant to culture. Unmediated tensions combined with relational isolation lead to a myriad of problems. This study proposes cross-cultural missional partnership as a relationship that mediates these tensions, thereby encouraging mutual, faithful engagement in the mission of God. Cross-cultural tensions may never disappear, but within a healthy partnership, partners can assist one another in understanding and responding faithfully to Scripture. Partners help one another more faithfully interpret and apply Scripture, leading to obedience to God's will and engagement in God's mission within unique and diverse contexts.
Book Synopsis The Potential and Power of Prayer by : Chuck Lawless
Download or read book The Potential and Power of Prayer written by Chuck Lawless and published by Tyndale House Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is it a struggle to pray? Respected professor, speaker, and pastor Dr. Chuck Lawless explores the power of a praying church and how it can transform your ministry. Through prayer, we have access to the all-powerful living God. Even so, too many of us are tempted to start our days prayerless and feeling alone. How can this be? We can't afford to be so negligent, because whether we realize it or not we all face a high-stakes spiritual battle when we step out into our communities. In The Potential and Power of Prayer, Chuck Lawless illustrates how churches need to take prayer seriously in order to grow; explores how Jesus and the early church depended on God through prayer; explains how prayer is essential to preparing for spiritual battles; and guides church leaders in establishing the priority of prayer and a thriving prayer ministry in their churches. God chooses to move among Christians who humbly come to him in prayer; who depend on him for strength and guidance.

Book Synopsis Transformational Church by : Ed Stetzer
Download or read book Transformational Church written by Ed Stetzer and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are we doing? The church, that is. And how are we doing it? Congregations have long measured success by "bodies, budget, and buildings"--a certain record of attendance, the offering plate, and square footage. But the scorecard can't stop there. When it does, the deeper emphasis on accountability, discipleship, and spiritual maturity is lost. Ignoring those details, we see fewer lives transformed, Christian influence wane, and churches thin out--a situation that is all too familiar across North America today. It is time to take heart and rework the scorecard. According to Ed Stetzer and Thom S. Rainer, the authors of Transformational Church, "Too often we've highlighted the negative realities of the declining American church but missed the opportunity to magnify the God of hope and transformation." Based on the most comprehensive study of its kind, including a survey of more than 7,000 churches and hundreds of on-site interviews with pastors, Transformational Church takes us to the thriving congregations where truly changing lives is the norm. Stetzer and Rainer clearly confirm the importance of disciple making for all through active biblical engagement and prayerful dependence on God alongside of ever-increasing, intentional participation in mission and ministry activities. As the church engages these issues, the world will see the change: * More people following Christ * More believers growing in their faith * More churches making an impact on their communities The transformation starts now.
Book Synopsis Spiritual Abuse Recovery by : Barbara M. Orlowski
Download or read book Spiritual Abuse Recovery written by Barbara M. Orlowski and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What factors contribute to active Christians in ministry leaving their church and becoming exiting statistics? Every year dedicated Christian people leave churches because of spiritual abuse. The stories of people who left their home church because of a negative and hurtful experience paint a picture of a widespread occurrence which beckons consideration by church leaders and church congregants alike. Spiritual abuse, the misuse of spiritual authority to maltreat followers in the Christian Church, is a complex issue. This book shows how people processed their grief after experiencing spiritual abuse in their local church and how they rediscovered spiritual harmony. Their spiritual journey shows how one may grow through this devastating experience. This book offers a thoughtful look at the topic of spiritual recovery from clergy abuse through the eyes of those who have experienced it. It invites church leaders to consider this very real dysfunction in the Church today and aims to demonstrate a path forward to greater freedom in Christ after a season of disillusionment with church leadership.
