Download or read book The Church Held Hostage written by Pastor Alfred A. Dingle Sr. and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We must be reminded that there are forces outside of the church warring against us. These forces, at times, can are and can be merciless and treacherous. But we are informed through the Word of God that we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. It isn't just the outside forces which attack the church that presents obstacles to the church that we want to emphasize and recognize, but primarily the forces inside the church that corrode and erode the infrastructure of the small local church. It is tragic enough to deal with trouble from outside of the church, but it's worse when those who should work for the wellbeing of the church become part of the problem and not part of the solution. It's not the circumstances of life that people have little or no control over that directly holds the small church hostage, but it's the circumstances in life that people have a reasonable amount of, or a lot of control of, that holds the small church hostage. It is my prayer that through these writings that awareness, and enlightenment will come to this devastating quagmire that plagues many of our church. We will no longer continue to be in danger of being The Church Held Hostage.

Download or read book God's Hostage written by Andrew Brunson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1993, Andrew Brunson was asked to travel to Turkey, the largest unevangelized country in the world, to serve as a missionary. Though hesitant because of the daunting and dangerous task that lay ahead, Andrew and his wife, Norine, believed this was God's plan for them. What followed was a string of threats and attacks, but also successes in starting new churches in a place where many people had never met a Christian. As their work with refugees from Syria, including Kurds, gained attention and suspicion, Andrew and Norine acknowledged the threat but accepted the risk, determining to stay unless God told them to leave. In 2016, they were arrested. Though the State eventually released Norine, who remained in Turkey, Andrew was imprisoned. Accused of being a spy and being among the plotters of the attempted coup, he became a political pawn whose story soon became known around the world. God's Hostage is the incredible true story of his imprisonment, his brokenness, and his eventual freedom. Anyone with a heart for missions, especially to the Muslim world, will love this tension-laden and faith-laced book.
Book Synopsis Christ Held Hostage by : S. J. Munson
Download or read book Christ Held Hostage written by S. J. Munson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today in America, many Christians feel disillusioned as they watch the faith they hold dear being used to further a worldly political agenda. It is as if our religion has been taken hostage: forcibly wedded to a particular political ideology or economic system, or stripped down to a couple of hot-button issues, like abortion and same-sex marriage, as though to oppose these were the sum of our faith. Ironically, in our efforts to “take back America,” we have ourselves been taken captive by the prevailing culture and politics of imperialism, greed, racism, and xenophobia that surround us. And so the struggle for the soul of a nation has also become a struggle for the soul of the church. How can we regain a political voice that is neither power-hungry nor passive, neither conservative nor liberal, but simply Christlike in its concern for justice and the poor? Evangelical pastor and author S.J. Munson explores these issues from the perspective of both the Bible and history. What these have to say will both surprise and challenge us. Each chapter includes questions for group discussion or personal reflection, and a prayer. A great book for small groups or individual study!
Book Synopsis The Openness of God by : Clark H. Pinnock
Download or read book The Openness of God written by Clark H. Pinnock and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voted one of Christianity Today's 1995 Books of the Year! The Openness of God presents a careful and full-orbed argument that the God known through Christ desires "responsive relationship" with his creatures. While it rejects process theology, the book asserts that such classical doctrines as God's immutability, impassibility and foreknowledge demand reconsideration. The authors insist that our understanding of God will be more consistently biblical and more true to the actual devotional lives of Christians if we profess that "God, in grace, grants humans significant freedom" and enters into relationship with a genuine "give-and-take dynamic." The Openness of God is remarkable in its comprehensiveness, drawing from the disciplines of biblical, historical, systematic and philosophical theology. Evangelical and other orthodox Christian philosophers have promoted the "relational" or "personalist" perspective on God in recent decades. Now here is the first major attempt to bring the discussion into the evangelical theological arena.

Book Synopsis Captive in Iran by : Maryam Rostampour
Download or read book Captive in Iran written by Maryam Rostampour and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maryam Rostampour and Marziyeh Amirizadeh knew they were putting their lives on the line. Islamic laws in Iran forbade them from sharing their Christian beliefs, but in three years, they’d covertly put New Testaments into the hands of twenty thousand of their countrymen and started two secret house churches. In 2009, they were finally arrested and held in the notorious Evin Prison in Tehran, a place where inmates are routinely tortured and executions are commonplace. In the face of ruthless interrogations, persecution, and a death sentence, Maryam and Marziyeh chose to take the radical—and dangerous—step of sharing their faith inside the very walls of the government stronghold that was meant to silence them. In Captive in Iran, two courageous Iranian women recount how God used their 259 days in Evin Prison to shine His light into one of the world’s darkest places, giving hope to those who had lost everything and showing love to those in despair.
