Budgeting for a Healthy Church
Author: Jamie Dunlop
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310093872
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Many pastors conceive of the church budget as primarily a financial tool, but in fact it is primarily a pastoral tool. A church's philosophy of ministry is locked into its budget, and so the budget will either stifle or accelerate any attempts to move a congregation toward a biblical model of church health. As such, the church budget is a far more potent pastoral tool than many church leaders realize. Budgeting for a Healthy Church examines each section of the budget in light of Biblical principles to show how a church budget can lock in healthy approaches to ministry. Whereas most books on church budgeting are "how" books, explaining how the budgeting process should work, this is a "what" book, helping church leaders determine the pastoral implications of what they choose to fund in their budgets.

Book Description
In her follow-up to Getting It Together, Carol Wehrheim presents a concise, accessible resource to help families better understand the importance of stewardship: in the family, in the congregation, in the community, and in the world. Reminding us that stewardship is about much more than money, Wehrheim clearly illustrates a more holistic understanding of the concept to include careful consideration of the choices we make that show the role Christian discipleship plays in our lives. She skillfully analyzes biblical passages and identifies spiritual practices intrinsic to stewardship as a way of helping families respond to their call to be stewards in today's world. Including both a participant's section and a leader's guide, Giving Together is ideal for group or family study.

The Pursuit of Commitment
Author: Daniel O. Ogweno
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1606475320
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
I thought I was awake. I couldn't afford to sleep-drive, but I slept-behind the steering wheel. A watchman, doing a night shift, walks to his boss and asks for permission to travel home. He had dreamt the previous night that his mother was seriously ill. The watchman was supposed to be "watching" but he slept. He never realised that by telling his boss that he dreamt, he equally informed him that he was sleeping on duty. One unique thing about sleeping is that we can't tell we are asleep until we wake up. This means we may be deep asleep in the wrong place and time without even knowing it. This book will test your condition. If you have been spiritually sleeping, it will tap you on the shoulder and wake you up. If you are awake, it will cheer you on to a more passionate vitality and prevent you from spiritual drowsiness. The principles and insights shared in this book will help you gauge your spiritual vigilance and relevance. Ogweno holds Bachelor of Education (Moi University, Kenya) and M.Phil. in Mass Communication and Media Studies (University of Bergen, Norway). He is the founder of Christ is Lord Ministries-Worldwide (Cilmin-Worldwide) and the author of a number of life-changing books, including: Virtue that Counts; Lessons from the Road, A Life of an Enthusiastic Worship, The Secret Weapon Against Terrorism, etc. He is married to Laura Caroline and they are blessed with two boys: Victor and Jim-Jif, and a girl: Baraka-Norine.
