Download or read book The Kerygmatic Spirit written by Amos Yong and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of fifteen sermons by one of the leading pentecostal theologians today provides insight into the form, style, and content of preaching in the pentecostal tradition while also being suggestive of normative homiletical theory and practice. The Kergymatic Spirit argues that Spirit-empowered preaching is apostolic not only with regard to being rooted in the scriptural traditions but also with regard to connecting the that of the early Christian message with the this of contemporary experience and discipleship. Hence, rather than only reflecting pentecostal preaching of the sort that happens in the pulpits of churches connected to the modern movement by that name, these sermons are presented as the participating in the form of gospel proclamation inspired and empowered by the divine Spirit poured out on all flesh on the Day of Pentecost by the risen Christ from the right hand of the Father. Whether read or heard (there are links to video and audio archives throughout), these homilies are illustrative of exegetical and expositional practice that connects the biblical text with Spirit-filled faithfulness in the twenty-first-century ecumenical church and world at large.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preaching simply does not happen apart from the Holy Spirit. In fact, preaching is the Spirit's ministry! Spirit-Led Preaching helps readers understand preaching from the Spirit's point of view and teaches about the Spirit's role in both the preparation and delivery process, showing what it means to be truly empowered by the Spirit when you preach. It also explains the crucial connection between Word and Spirit as they depend on each other to bring about spiritual transformation in the lives of the congregation. This revised edition includes a new chapter on the congregation’s role in relationship to the Spirit and preaching—a subject not often mentioned in books on preaching. Spirit-led Preaching is a book written by a pastor to pastors and students of preaching and is filled with personal examples from the author’s own preaching ministry. It has encouraged both novice students of preaching as well as seasoned pulpit veterans for over a decade. In 2007, Spirit-Led Preaching won first place for the Pastor’s Soul category from Christianity Today magazine.

Download or read book Preaching to a Postmodern World written by Graham M. Johnston and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While growing churches dot our urban centers and country landscapes, church-goers and students today are actually less likely to maintain a Christian worldview than in the past. In fact, the majority of society does not even believe in objective truth. A minister out of touch with this culture is like an uninformed missionary trying to teach in a foreign country. To communicate God's Word effectively in the twenty-first century, teachers need to know how to connect with and confront an audience of postmodern listeners. In Preaching to a Postmodern World, Johnston shows pastors, seminary students, professors, lay teachers, and church leaders can reach the present age without selling out to it. The book discusses how to: • distinguish between modernism and postmodernism • understand postmodern worldviews • change the style of preaching without compromising the substance • take advantage of new opportunities provided by the cultural shift • show an inattentive society the relevance of God's truth The author's keen insights into contemporary pop and media culture also help equip speakers to address today's listeners with clarity and relevance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Some may object to my dogmatic assertions; but I do not apologize for them. Every preacher should believe strongly in his own method; and if I cannot persuade all of the rightness of mine, I can at least stimulate them to think and to consider other possibilities. I can say quite honestly that I would not cross the road to listen to myself preaching, and the preachers whom I have enjoyed most have been very different indeed in their method and style. But my business is not to describe them but to state what I believe to be right, however imperfectly I have put my own precepts into practice. I can only hope that the result will be of some help, and especially to young preachers called to this greatest of all tasks, and especially in these sad and evil times. With many others I pray that 'The Lord of the harvest may thrust forth' many mighty preachers to proclaim 'the unsearchable riches of Christ!'"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a few decades past, academia tended to scoff at the very idea of serious Pentecostal theology. Today profound and variegated theological implications of this dynamic movement are the object of exploration and development across the entire spectrum of the Christian theological corpus. Arguably, an acute need has arisen for identification and evaluation of the Pentecostal movement's original and ongoing theological ""essentials."" What is Pentecostal theology really all about anyway? This volume realizes that Pentecostal theology is at its heart a working theology undergirding and energizing believers' worship of God in prayer and praise, in holy living, and in witness to a personal experience of the risen Lord and Savior manifested in the continuing power of the Holy Spirit. Authentic implementation, if not explicit articulation, of fervent Pentecostal theology often occurs in the vitality of local churches, house fellowships, and various mission settings in America and around the world. Birthed in the fires of revival movements, essential Pentecostalism, including Pentecostal theology, continues to burn brightest wherever it is fueled most directly.

Book excerpt: Dynamic, Never-Before-Published Work on the Holy Spirit from A.W. Tozer What does it mean to have the Holy Spirit in our lives? Many look to extraordinary experiences and manifestations as evidence of the Spirit. But what happens when the event is over? How can we experience the Holy Spirit in the ordinary, everyday world? How can we be filled with the Spirit? In this material taken from Tozer's sermons, he answers these questions and explores life in the Spirit from a balanced perspective. The church needs the gifts of the Spirit--all of them--or it will never be what God intends it to be. But this has to happen in wisdom and humility. Many people talk about being filled with the Holy Spirit, but very few accept the conditions for being filled. Tozer lays down requirements for the Holy Spirit to come into our lives and transform us into Spirit-filled people. Though every Christian has the Holy Spirit, not every Christian is filled with the Holy Spirit. He explains the difference and how it could change the evangelical church of today.

Book excerpt: Through the history of God's people, the constant element has been the manifest presence of the Almighty. Baptism in the Holy Spirit galvanized the young church, equipping and empowering the believers for action, particularly for proclamation. This transformative experience boosted courage, fostered fluency, and granted insights to ordinary men and women--and still does today. The Spirit gives particular gifts. Terry clarifies the distinction between pastors, apostles, and prophets. Every fellowship needs a pastor, someone who can keep the flock close to the Shepherd Himself. Beyond that there is the role of the apostle, whose calling is to act as the master builder. But we are all called to be a prophetic people, able to speak God's word into the current situation, bringing direction, comfort, solutions, and action. This warm and loving description of the work of the Spirit is a delightful articulation of the passion that has driven Terry's life and ministry.

Download or read book Supernatural Revolution written by Jamie Galloway and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supernatural Revolution tells you how to bring the realm of the supernatural into an active reality in your life. Written with passion, humility, and expectancy, Supernatural Revolution is about what God is accomplishing. Author Jamie Galloway vividly describes what he sees happening supernaturally, and demonstrates through his own worldwide supernatural experiences how to walk in this lifestyle. A supernatural revolution is taking place—now. An unprecedented move of the Spirit of God is covering the earth and you are invited into the very heart of this movement. It is a time of glory, destiny, and a great awakening of the people of God to take their place in history as the most awesome company of believers the world has ever seen. Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness (Matthew 9:35 NIV). Each chapter concludes with a “Call to Action” that gives practical application to the teachings. Biblically-charged and Holy Spirit inspired advice includes: “When the Lord wakes you up in the night…pray in the Spirit and watch your dream life go to the next level. Worship and intercede and you will start to see things in the supernatural as the Lord begins to share the secrets of His heart.”

Book excerpt: Hendrickson presents two classic works on the Holy Spirit by A. W. Tozer, together in one volume for the first time. A superb addition to the best-selling Hendrickson Christian Classics series, Life in the Spirit combines Tozer's How to Be Filled with the Spirit and The Counselor: Straight Talk About the Holy Spirit from a Twentieth Century Prophet. In Tozer's own words, How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit "was made available to the Christian public with the prayer that it may lead thirsty believers to the fountain of living waters." Since its publication, hundreds of thousands of copies of this practical yet deeply devotional guide have been sold. How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit will refresh and open the reader to the filling of the Holy Spirit. In The Counselor, Tozer speaks to the current conflict and confusion about the Holy Spirit from a balanced, biblical perspective--not academic, but practical. Tozer promises that the Holy Spirit "is willing--yes, willing--to do for us all that Jesus would do if He were here on earth." The chapters of this book were originally preached as sermons at Southside Alliance Church in Chicago. Whether spoken or written, Tozer's words were designed to "promote personal heart religion" among God's people.

Download or read book What The Spirit is Saying to the Church written by Reverend Anthony Kelley and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What the Spirit is Saying to the Church is an apocalyptic view from the letters to the seven churches in the book of Revelation that begins its message to the church admonishing her to return to her first love which she has abandoned. The author contends that this first love requirement demands a redirection of priorities for the Twenty-First-Century Church-in-the-Black-Experience. It demonstrates how, for the love of Christ, she must move beyond a limited vision of just a good-looking church and satisfaction with old definitions. Christ gives a rebuke to the church and a direct warning that if she does not repent and return to her first love, he will then remove her lampstand! "Reverend Kelley's preaching is spiritually sound and intellectually stimulating and challenging, and also socially relevant. He deeply believes in what I would call a well-rounded ministry. That is to say, that ministry for him involves not only mastering the preached Word, but also taking seriously and fulfilling the roles of pastor, priest, and prophet."-REV. DR. LEWIS V. BALDWIN, PHD, RETIRED PROFESSOR OF RELIGIOUS STUDIES, VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY. "Reverend Kelley is a preacher of the Word. His ability to prepare and deliver biblically sound, inspirational and spirit-filled sermons is a gift that allows those who hear him to participate in the story of salvation at personal and social levels. He is not a closed-lip babbler who preaches to itching ears, rather he speaks with power and authority under the watchcare of an humble spirit and a disciplined mind."-REV. DR. WALTER EARL FLUKER, PHD, MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. PROFESSOR OF ETHICAL LEADERSHIP, AND DIRECTOR OF THE HOWARD THURMAN INSTITUTE, BOSTON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY.
