Reign

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
Reign: Awakening a Young Generation to King Jesus is a student ministry curriculum designed for use in youth camps, youth retreats, DiscipleNow Weekends, church Bible classes, discipleship groups, and family studies. The curriculum includes four small-group Bible studies and four personal devotionals to accompany the studies. Reign immerses teenagers in a study of a facet of Jesus Christ that has received little attention. That facet is Christ's majestic glory and preeminence as He reigns from the throne of heaven. Through this study many teenagers will see and embrace Jesus in a way that is entirely new for them. They will reflect on His preexistence with triune God, hear Him speak creation into existence, see announcements of His glory in the Old Testament, observe the cross as the high watermark of Christ's supremacy, watch Him rise from the grave and ascend to heaven, celebrate as God the Father enthrones the Son at His right hand, and join the heavenly throng in singing, "King of kings and Lord of lords!" The Reign study directly confronts what many leaders believe is the primary shortfall of teenagers in the church today--a me-centered faith some call Moral Therapeutic Deism. Church teenagers do love Jesus, but they tend to see Him as a nice friend or even a mascot. They keep Him in the background of their lives, with one exception. When they face some problem or obstacle, they fully expect Him to show up and poof their troubles away. He is relevant only when He is making their lives happier and problem free. The antithesis to "It's all about me" is the truth "It's all about the glorious King Jesus." Teenagers who understand, embrace, and follow Christ as supreme move from "Jesus is my mascot" to "Jesus is my Monarch." Titles of the Four Small-Group Sessions Session 1: Little Jesus in My Pocket Session 2: Who Jesus Is Today Session 3: Christ Enthroned Changes Everything Session 4: Waking Up the World to Christ Reign: Awakening a Young Generation to King Jesus is a study that could not be more timely. For the glory of the Father and by the power of the Spirit, it is time to rivet the eyes of teenagers on the majesty of their King.

Book Description
Why are young people alienated from television news? This book argues that contemporary trends indicating deepening disconnection from news about public life reflect both problems in the way television news covers politics - the single biggest item on the news - and problems with the nature of politics itself under neo-liberal capitalism.

Mediated
Author: Thomas de Zengotita
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1596917644
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In this utterly original look at our modern "culture of performance," de Zengotita shows how media are creating self-reflective environments, custom made for each of us. From Princess Diana's funeral to the prospect of mass terror, from oral sex in the Oval Office to cowboy politics in distant lands, from high school cliques to marital therapy, from blogs to reality TV to the Weather Channel, Mediated takes us on an original and astonishing tour of every department of our media-saturated society. The implications are personal and far-reaching at the same time. Thomas de Zengotita is a contributing editor at Harper's Magazine and holds a Ph.D. in anthropology from Columbia University. He teaches at the Dalton School and at the Draper Graduate Program at New York University. "Reading Thomas de Zengotita's Mediated is like spending time with a wild, wired friend-the kind who keeps you up late and lures you outside of your comfort zone with a speed rap full of brilliant notions."-O magazine "A fine roar of a lecture about how the American mind is shaped by (too much) media...."-Washington Post "Deceptively colloquial, intellectually dense...This provocative, extreme and compelling work is a must-read for philosophers of every stripe."-Publishers Weekly

Young Fire
Author: Joel Hitchcock
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781523994687
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
Revivalist Joel Hitchcock believes that youth revivalists can learn from the revivals and spiritual awakenings of the past in order to facilitate a World-shaking Revival and Great Spiritual Awakening in our generation. Joel discusses several revivals of the past - such as the Great Awakenings, Welch Revival, the Azusa Street Outpouring, and others, as well as his own experiences, to challenge young people as the next generation of revivalists to usher in the greatest move of God this world has ever known. God is raising up a younger generation of revivalists for the end time Great Awakening. Great revivals and spiritual awakenings have occurred throughout history in many nations. Great revivalists blazed the trails of great awakenings in the past, and have passed the torch to a younger generation of revivalists. This younger generation of revivalists are the Young Fires that God is raising up to accomplish His purpose in the end time generation. The Young Fires look back and learn for the flaming revivalists of old, then look at our current generation, and cry, "Wilt thou not revive us again?" Joel Hitchcock Writes in the first chapter: "I wrote this book in 1999 under the title, The End Time Revival and Great Awakening. At the time I had a tremendous passion for God to move in our generation in a mighty way. I prayed that God would use me and raise up others to usher in a mighty end time revival and spiritual awakening. I have changed the title of this book to Young Fire - End Time Revivalists for the Great Awakening, because not only was I a youth when I wrote it, but it is my deep desire that young people that read it will catch the spirit of revivalism, and be used by God in their generation. As this book goes into yet another printing, I reflect on what the Lord has done in our generation. I see how God has raised up many powerful men and women of God, who were unknown at the time that I had written this book. Some of them were barely teenagers. God has indeed raised up some great revivalists. I now look forward to what God may do in the next 20 years and beyond. I wonder what kind of nation-shaking revival God may grant us. Regardless of the powerful revivals that God had blessed this nation with, they all seem to fall short from the awakenings in the USA, Wales, Hebrides and others from early 1700s through the early 1900s. Yet we cannot underestimate what God has done recently. Countless lives have been changed and the impact of this move of God will only be appreciated to its full in time to come. Yet our world seems in a horrible spiritual state. Perhaps these most recent revivals were but tremors before the big one hits. I believe this may be the case. An author is always hesitant to put into print a work he or she did many years back, without completely re-editing it, or maybe rewriting it altogether. The reason for this is because authors views on certain things change, they may have come upon greater clarity on certain theological topics, their audience is no longer the same as the one present when they initially wrote their book, and their writing skills have also changed or improved. However, I am putting this book back into print, as it was in 1999, with some editorial changes here and there. The reader may notice that the style of the author reflects that of an on-fire young man, eagerly expecting a mighty move of God. After serving God for many years, and after over 25 years of full time ministry, I am as on fire now as I have ever been. The spirit of revival is more caught than it is taught. It is my prayer that this work would stir a passion for revival and spiritual awakening in you and in our young generation... Dr. Joel Hitchcock, Georgetown Delaware, 2016
