Advancing the Kingdom
Author: Donald Schanzenbach
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780999790410

Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Does Christianity mean anything outside the walls of your church?Does the rule of Christ extend beyond the confines of your heart?Christians have forgotten the comprehensive nature of our faith and abandoned almost every area of cultural influence. We have retreated within our church walls and kept only a slight grip on what we consider spiritual things while surrendering the earth and all that is in it, to the enemies of Christ. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. We must not continue to fall back but advance!Advancing the Kingdom is a sixteen chapter Christian worldview workbook. Schanzenbach writes with the understanding that there is no area of study or work in this world that is neutral. All things are created by God which gives Christians tremendous opportunity to glorify God in their work and study and by applying themselves to a broad variety of vocations.Most Christians today apply God's Word only to the areas of morals and evangelism. Dr. Schanzenbach demonstrates that the Bible has much more to say than that. It has wisdom and application for us in every vocation as we take every thought captive to Christ and His Word.The Advancing the Kingdom workbook includes chapters on history, biology, philosophy, civil law, education, government, mathematics, geography, sociology, psychology, literature, economics, the arts, and more. This 2nd edition is revised and updated to reflect current statistics and research.This book is excellent for personal or group study and is suitable for teens and adults.

Redemptive Kingdom Diversity
Author: Jarvis J. Williams
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493432605
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive biblical and theological survey of the people of God in the Old and New Testaments, offering insights for today's transformed and ethnically diverse church. Jarvis Williams explains that God's people have always been intended to be a diverse community. From Genesis to Revelation, God has intended to restore humanity's vertical relationship with God, humanity's horizontal relationship with one another, and the entire creation through Jesus. Through Jesus, both Jew and gentile are reconciled to God and together make up a transformed people. Williams then applies his biblical and theological analysis to selected aspects of the current conversation about race, racism, and ethnicity, explaining what it means to be the church in today's multiethnic context. He argues that the church should demonstrate redemptive kingdom diversity, for it has been transformed into a new community that is filled with many diverse ethnic communities.

Pages : 208
Book Description
Fight the Way Jesus Fought For many believers, times of unrest simply mean that darkness is on the rise. But what if the growing violence in the world today means something different? What if our "signs of the times" mean that the Spirit of God is on the move? Author and trusted prophet Kim Maas reveals one of the mysteries of the Kingdom: When light breaks through the gates of darkness, the result is violence. This is spiritual warfare, and it signals a fresh awakening. It means that the Kingdom of God is advancing and that you are advancing! Engage in Kingdom violence the way Jesus taught--with violent love, violent forgiveness, violent healing, violent deliverance, violent peace. If answering violence with violence sounds like war, it is. You are already in position. Overturn the works of darkness in every area of your life, and watch for a great move of God!

Giving and Getting in the Kingdom
Author: R. Mark Dillon
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802483747
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Fundraising for an organization or ministry is not merely an important task, it’s a noble one. Successful leaders must possess the theological vision to recognize the necessity of asking, the joy of giving, and the beautifully collaborative nature of advancing the kingdom. It should come as no surprise that the literal translation of the word philanthropy is “love of mankind”– and Christian philanthropy enables us to love God through loving man. Mark Dillon has spent his career interacting with hundreds of thoughtful Christian stewards, and reframing the discussion on giving. He challenges leaders to ensure their organizations and ministries are worthy of the gifts they receive. Highly practical and refreshingly candid, Giving and Getting in the Kingdom delivers much-needed perspective on the eternal significance of our earthly transactions.

Book Description
Become the Kingdom Woman God Is Calling You to Be Women, lean in: You grace this world with insight, sensitivity, wisdom, and spiritual beauty that has made you a force behind great accomplishments. Much of what comes in the life of a kingdom woman may not make headlines, but when you become passionate about what God is passionate about, positive change can occur in lives, families, communities, and even our nation.

Together with his daughter, Crystal Evans Hurst, Dr. Tony Evans shows you what it means to live as a biblical woman and embrace your femininity, to walk by faith (not just talk about it), to make decisions in alignment with God, to raise up the next generation, and to discover that tremendous freedom comes when your ultimate submission is under a caring and loving God. How do you do this? Kingdom Woman serves as a practical and empowering path to help you along the journey of life as you learn to: Let go of hopelessness and disappointment to fully experience your destiny Value what God values―humility, meekness, and the beauty of a servant’s heart Confidently follow God on the pathway of faith, even if you can’t see the destination Choose to have faith to believe that the dark road you are traveling on will eventually yield to a sunrise Pursue God and His Word in a way that your actions follow His instructions Exercise authority through prayer for heavenly intervention in your earthly affairs God is writing your story. Live like the Christian woman He designed you to be.
