Book Description
Marie Sandvik loved to preach, even as a child in Norway where she preached to sheep and imaginary people. In 1919, at the age of seventeen, she came to America to get an education, and worked her way through high school, college, and seminary. Her struggle against extreme poverty created in her a compassionate heart, and she vowed that someday she would help those who were penniless as she had been. In 1940, she converted a vacant skid row bar into a mission, moved in behind it, and ran it to help the poor, the homeless, and the hungry, and to bring God's word and love to them all. Four years later Marie was joined by Doris Nye, a young college graduate who was skilled in music and business administration. As a child, Doris daydreamed about growing up to help the poor. She learned compassion for those who were less fortunate as she accompanied her two aunts, who were medical doctors, on their rounds. Doris planned to become a missionary after she graduated from college, but circumstances put her in touch with Marie at the skid row mission. Doris quickly discovered that her calling was to work with Marie. The two women stayed together for the rest of Marie's life, and their work eventually received national acclaim.

WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO HAVE MORNING COFFEE WITH GOD?

That is for you, the reader, to decide. As Michael says, There is much more truth to so-called fantasy than people realize. So what is reality and what is fantasy?

Unseduced and Unshaken
Author: Rosalie De Rosset
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802481744
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
You can’t afford to live casually, haphazardly. No matter your age, you were born into a plethora of expectations of what it means to be a woman. How easily we assume impoverished views of womanhood as we hoist beauty and desirability above the more enduring traits of self-possession and dignity. We tend to live as divided and distracted selves, allowing our bodies and minds to drift to opposite poles while swapping our pursuit of God for tamer, lesser loves. This collection of essays is more than a call to modesty or chastity. It is a thoughtful provocation to speak well, read often, make choices that reflect the character of God, and even to establish a theology of play or leisure. Being intentional with your choices, cultivating your intellect, and taking seriously your voice determines not only what kind of person you are, but also what kind of woman you will be. “[Unseduced and Unshaken] raises the bar for young Christian women...It’s a call for all Christian women to examine their personal faith presuppositions, deliberately choose a life of Biblical ‘dignity,’ and to not be frightened to allow ‘theology to inform our choices.’” Just Between Us, Summer 2013 issue

The House Of God

Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
The Blueprint A blueprint is a guide for making something. It is a design or pattern that can be followed. When we sit down to build something, we normally draw up a blueprint and then follow the design carefully. A blueprint helps you determine what to do. In this manual "The House of God" our goal is to discover God's blueprint for local churches and local communities of believers. We also share practical ways to build local churches according to God's blueprint. Our goal is not to present one set of "methods" and "techniques", but rather discover what God wants the local church to be. Each one of us will have to make our own journey with God as we develop our local congregations according to God's blueprint. Each one of us will have to discover our own expression of this blueprint in our local communities. Since God is a creative God, He has many ways and many expressions of His blueprint. The one common denominator is that we are all pursuing the same blueprint for each local church. The blueprint describes God’s design. It is God’s original intent. It highlights main characteristics. It describes key features. It points to important focus areas. When we follow His blueprint, we know we are moving in the right direction and will eventually arrive at the right destination for our local churches. Your Ministry And God’s Blueprint Regardless of what your ministry is inside or in relation to the local church, it is important that what you do is aligned to God’s blueprint for His people. As a pastor or senior pastor your responsibility is to ensure that the local church is growing and developing in all dimensions according to God’s blueprint. As an itinerant evangelist, teacher, prophet, or apostle, whenever you minister to a congregation, your goal is to help impart and increase the congregation in some way according to God’s design for the local church. Whether you serve as a youth pastor, worship leader, in children’s church, in women’s ministry, in men’s ministry, or in small groups, you are working toward establishing God’s blueprint in the lives of His people in that local church. Follow God’s design closely and you will not go wrong! Watch our online Sunday Church service live stream every Sunday at 10:30am (Indian Time, GMT+5:30).

When God Speaks Through Worship
Author: Craig A. Satterlee
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 156699697X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
When God Speaks through Worship: Stories Congregations Live By is a collection of stories of congregational worship in which God's ongoing presence, speech, and activity are apparent. These stories of proclaiming the gospel, teaching the faith, praying, singing, baptizing, blessing, and sharing bread and wine in Jesus's name share the purpose of these activities in worship, yet still challenge the reader to explore the motives behind them. When we worship in church, are we worshiping God, or ourselves? Has worship become more people-centered than Christ-centered? We have our preferred styles, but is that getting in the way of the purpose of worship? In his follow-up to When God Speaks through Change: Preaching in Times of Congregational Transition and When God Speaks through You: How Faith Convictions Shape Preaching and Mission, Craig A. Satterlee uses eight stories to inspire other congregations to seek God through their worship. He discusses both the joys and challenges of worship, as well as the supportive parts of it, such as specific vocations, planning, and communication. However your church chooses to express itself through worship, this book will make you think about how you re going about it, why, and what impact it is having on the people within your congregation and the community around it.
