Beyond Sets

Pages : 124
Book Description
This book is the product of a collaboration stretching the years 2007-10, whose initial fruit was a paper on “Plenum Theory” published in Nous. The work grew out of the author’s conviction that standard set theory, which had evolved to meet the needs of mathematics, was not fully adequate to the less abstractly geared and rigidly determine needs of less finalized ranges of inquiry and deliberation.

The Regions Beyond

Pages : 162
Book Description
This is a story of transformation. It is a story of evangelism, discipleship and church planting. It is a story of reaching the nations of the world with the gospel. It is an exciting story. In 1970 the Prescott Foursquare Church in Arizona was struggling. It had been morally violated and broken. It was a small abused congregation. At that time, Prescott was a rural town of about 17,000 persons in northwestern Arizona. Wayman Mitchell took the pastorate of the Prescott Foursquare Church in January. The addition of his family increased the size of the congregation to about two-dozen persons. From this small congregation in a small rural community God has raised a movement that has impacted the world. The Christian Fellowship Ministries (CFM), as it is now called, has birthed over twenty-two hundred churches located in one hundred and sixteen nations of the world. This story is meaningful to layman and minister alike. It is meaningful for the broader Christian community. This story tells how God can use common men and women and the common things of humanity to minister in the regions beyond.America in the 1970s was experiencing the Jesus People Movement (JPM). That movement changed America and impacted much of the western world. Principles from that movement became part of the CFM. The language of transformation was common to the Jesus people. When witnessing, they commonly cited Romans 12:1-2. The Prescott ministry picked up the importance of transformation for individuals and the church.The Great Commission also stirred Jesus people. There was urgency about wining the world to Jesus The biblical and theological foundation for evangelism, discipleship and church planting of the Christian Fellowship Ministry starts with this commission found in Matthew 28:16-20. The ministry of the CFM was not the plan of a man or group of people. It was by trial and error, a decision here and a decision there, and out of some things that seemed to work that the ministry of the CFM evolved. It was not the discovery of a new doctrine or the rediscovery of an old one. It was not the implementation of a program that transformed the CFM. It was the discovery of what God was doing and implementing that in the Prescott church. The deeper discovery was that God was restoring the dignity of the local church. The indigenous church principle and the making of disciples propelled the mission forward.This book is intended to provide an example of what God can do with people who simply try and follow God. Based on biblical and Christian principles it is intended to inspire persons to the work of God. And it is intended to inspire ministers to the possibilities of God when faced with the impossibilities of the world.This story uncovers the core elements that led a broken church out of brokenness to spiritual health and world impact. This is not a history, formula for revival, or step-by-step guide for church growth. It is an example of what God can do with a common people who seek to faithfully obey God.

Enlarge My Coast
Author: Barry Blackstone
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1621896307
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Enlarge My Coast tells of Pastor Blackstone's return to India to see the completion of a project inspired during his first trip to the subcontinent of Asia in 2006. This time his traveling companion will be a church deacon of the Emmanuel Baptist Church, Russ Coffin. Blackstone and Coffin travel to Kerala State to help in the dedication of the new Venmony Baptist Church sanctuary and parsonage built through the support of their ministry in Maine. Once again Pastor Blackstone is able to share the wonders and wants of India through the eyes of another adventurous traveler. Enjoy with them the fascination of watching a working elephant beside a rural road; the attempt of catching on film five people on a motorcycle at one time; a houseboat ride on Kerala's largest lake; listening to Russ's first sermon; graduation day at Kerala Baptist Bible College; an Indian barbeque of pancakes and omelets; of trying to find a bell for the college in the busy and confusing markets of one of Kerala's biggest cities; and an auto-rickshaw ride through rubber tree-lined lanes, banana grove-covered valleys, and an Indian road repair crew! As in his other India books, Though None Go with Me and Though One Go with Me, share the practical spiritual lessons Pastor Blackstone learned on this, his third "India journey" and his first mission trip to the State of Andrah Pradesh as the guest evangelist for the Independent Gospel Baptist Churches of India. Share in the personal experience of a daylong journey on the infamous Indian railway into the backcountry of central India, of driving a bullock cart, eating an Indian catfish, making friends with a dog named Ellie, preaching in a thatched-roof church, being surprised by a police raid at four in the morning, and witnessing more people coming to Christ at one time than at any other time in the pastor's ministry. Journey for a month into the unpredictable land of India and enjoy the surprises around each corner as Pastor Blackstone travels to three Indian states and gets to meet fellow pastors from five states. The fellowship will be sweet, the food will be hot, and the friendships made will be eternal!

Light on Darkness?
Author: T. Jack Thompson
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 0802865240
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
In its earliest days, photography was seen as depicting its subjects with such objectivity as to be inherently free of ideological bias. Today we are rightly more skeptical -- at least most of the time. When it comes to photography from the past, we tend to set some of our skepticism aside. But should we? In Light on Darkness? T. Jack Thompson, a leading historian of African Christianity, revisits the body of photography generated by British missionaries to sub-Saharan Africa in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and demonstrates that much more is going on in these images than meets the eye. This volume offers a careful reassessment of missionary photographers, their photographs, and their African and European audiences. Several dozen fascinating photographs from the period are included.
