Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law” (Deuteronomy 29:29). Important messages are communicated to us by God through stories written in the bible. Stories connect events and people and create meaning. They serve as vehicles that carry us on engaging, dramatic journeys to destinations of resolution that we find satisfying and fulfilling to the extent we desire to repeat the same experience. While we may not fully comprehend the grace or knowledge of God, He in his infinite mercy has provided us the opportunity to improve our understanding through the lives of great men of the Bible. The works of grace and how it operates in the lives of these men of faith were all documented for us (some) in the form of easy-to-read stories that we may learn from their lives. The Bible is a book of stories and parables that are meant to help us understand God better, gain deeper insight to His plan for us, and help us live better lives. We can read the stories it presents while also being attentive to the lessons being passed on to us. This guide helps decode the hidden messages of great Bible stories with a view to helping readers develop spiritual virtues and faith needed for this end time.

These biblically-grounded principles are destined to transform lives and ministries, unlocking new doors to spread the love of Jesus." Dr. Dick Eastman, International President, Every Home for Christ "We train people to preach so well that they can raise the dead, then they kill them again with their interpersonal skills. These materials give pastors and ministry leaders the practical skills they need to be effective in their ministries." Patrick Repp, Minnesota Renewal Center "There is no church, no pastor, no elder board, no ministry team and no Bible study group that would not profit immensely from this book. The tools given at the workshop using these materials are truly everyday tools. I use them in every relationship-from the casual acquaintance to the most intense counseling situation." Pastor Tim Westcott, Idyllwild Bible Church, Idyllwild, California "I really believe this material has His anointing and is the best training tool I've seen for our kind of people. I really believe in it." Duane, missionary in Thailand "I have three things to say about your material: 1) excellent 2) Excellent 3) EXCELLENT! It is definitely worth the price of the course!"

This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capitol Hill Baptist Church associate pastor Michael Lawrence contributes to the IXMarks series as he centers on the practical importance of biblical theology to ministry. He begins with an examination of a pastor's tools of the trade: exegesis and biblical and systematic theology. The book distinguishes between the power of narrative in biblical theology and the power of application in systematic theology, but also emphasizes the importance of their collaboration in ministry. Having laid the foundation for pastoral ministry, Lawrence uses the three tools to build a biblical theology, telling the entire story of the Bible from five different angles. He puts biblical theology to work in four areas: counseling, missions, caring for the poor, and church/state relations. Rich in application and practical insight, this book will equip pastors and church leaders to think, preach, and do ministry through the framework of biblical theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of Your Reasonable Service is to bring clarification to the issue of spiritual gifts. A number of important questions about the subject are answered, founded in an honest attempt to discover what the Bible says about the gifts. How many spiritual gifts are there? How do I discover my gift? Can I have more than one gift? Should I have all the gifts? Can I have all the gifts? How can I most effectively use my gifts? Do my personality traits or natural human abilities have any bearing on my giftedness? What is the purpose of spiritual gifts? How can I know how other Christians are gifted, and what does that mean for me? What impact does a proper biblical understanding of the gifts have on the local church? If the purpose is to bring clarification, the goal is to provide a tool that pastors, churches, and laypersons can use to determine Gods design for their service to the Lord. One area of the Holy Spirits work that surely needs emphasis in the church today is the work that God desires to do through His church by the exercise of the spiritual gifts given to each and every saint. The bottom-line objective is to help each believer, each church member, discover their Holy Spirit-given motivation for ministry. That motivation is your spiritual gift. A great motto for a church would be, Every member a minister. Of course, for that to happen, the pastor and membership would need to get serious about understanding and discovering the spiritual gifts of each member. I believe that any Bible-believing church would find the results of such an effort to be a tremendous blessing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's spiritual development is currently a hot topic in Christian circles, as well as in other fields and disciplines such as educational psychology, medicine, developmental psychology, education, and sociology. The key question for Christian scholars and educators is How do Christian beliefs and practices uniquely interrelate with children's spirituality? In 2003 and again in 2006, a national conference entitled Children's Spirituality Conference: Christian Perspectives examined children's spirituality from a distinctly Christian standpoint. This book is a collection of the best materials from the 2006 conference. The first half of the book addresses definitional, historical, and theological concerns related to spiritual development in children. The second half explores best practices for fostering spiritual growth among our children--in our homes, families, churches, Christian schools, and among special populations of children--from a wide spectrum of Christian scholars and practitioners. The volume closes with John Westerhoff's moving keynote address and Catherine Stonehouse and Scottie May's eloquent, culminating plenary address. Nurturing Children's Spirituality provides a rich cross section of the current research and writing by Christian scholars on children's spirituality. Contributors: Holly Catterton Allen, Michael J.
