Where Are We Now
Author: Bill Beckham
Publisher: CCS Publishing
ISBN: 1935789635
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
New movements in the Kingdom of God are either promoted by men or are an organism created by the Spirit of Christ. Man has formed many structures created to defend doctrines, organization formats, etc. Some of these are church-based and some are simply castles standing among the Para church groups, built by men who seek personal significance by forming a structure often named after themselves. Bill Beckham has painstakingly evaluated current movements existing around the world today. The reader will be encouraged to evaluate his or her commitment to the various models presented. Those who seek to manipulate “groups for growth” will find in Bill’s chapters a new paradigm, one as old as the book of Acts, presently being restored for the Last Days witness.

Housing Unaffordability from a Resident’s Point of View
Author: Alan Phipps
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 152751983X
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
A new theoretical criterion of housing unaffordability from a resident’s point of view is proposed in this book, tested with social data for respondents and price data for single-detached(-like) homes in two historically affordable mid-sized cities at two points in time, 30 years apart. This new criterion is derived from the magnitude of the mismatch between where the resident can afford to live and where they, realistically, would prefer to live. Housing affordability is a global social and political issue, and this book complements recent books that review housing affordability from a practitioner’s point of view. The book is written to be understood by everybody, with each chapter’s introductory subsection summarizing the subsequent technical and scientific sections. This book will therefore be readable not only for practitioners, but also academics in social science disciplines such as real estate, geography, economics, sociology, urban planning, and urban studies. Best of all, residents may utilize this book’s analysis of housing unaffordability to make wiser decisions about their own homes.

Planting Churches That Reproduce
Author: Joel Comiskey
Publisher: Joel Comiskey
ISBN: 0979067987
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Small group resources tend to overlook the spiritual side of small group leadership. And yet most would agree that spiritual preparation is the most important aspect of leading a small group. Only Gods supernatural power can draw people to the truth and liberate them to be all that God wants them to be. The key distinction of this book is the spiritual perspective it gives to small group ministry. So much of the literature about small groups that is already published relates to small group technique and only touches briefly on the Spirits power. This book is a practical reference guide to help small group leadership begin to move in the supernatural realm. The books first priority is to help small group leaders and members trust the Holy Spirit to lead them, empower them and work in their group. Small group facilitators often sense a lack of guidance, power and spiritual authority. Jesus knew His disciples would be powerless without a touch from the Holy Spirit, and so He told them to wait in Jerusalem, saying, You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8). Small group leaders need a power boost to make small group ministry relevant and exciting. The second priority of this book is to help the facilitator identify and mobilize each small group member to use his or her own spiritual gifts.

Book Description
Her world as she knew was about to radically change. When her car crashed by accident in the gate of a billionaire hybrid, Thomas DiAngelo, Mika Reigna's life was under a death threat. The Red Moon was witness of the hunt while the 18-year-old girl was running for her life, after being bitten by the over 500-year-old vampire-werewolf with a youthful appearance and the looks of a heartthrob. Her footsteps were taking her in the heart of the forest on the vast dominion the hybrid had, to escape the Devil who was after her to devour her special human blood. Neither Thomas, nor Mika, knew what the craze under the Red Moon event was about to bring among them. She was human, but was she? Would he kill her, or would he protect her from himself? Would love, pure love, conquer their hearts for one another? Did they have a past connection? What significance did the Red Moon have for them? Was she going to accept her new fate that was destined for her since birth? Thomas DiAngelo was a cruel beast, but with a pure soul for what mattered. He was head of the Hybrids House, but also leader over the other eight supernatural houses around the world. In front of the human world, he was a ruthless businessman, feared by others. Every Red Moon event, he would lose control over himself and needed to be restrained by his people under chains and spells, to not go on a killing spree and attack the innocent. But that fateful night, when Mika crashed with her car in his main gate, nothing worked to keep him at bay, for her blood drove him insane in cravings and the unwanted hunt began.... The story and series will bring you vampires, werewolves, witches, banshees, and many other creatures for the houses stood for a certain species. You'll meet romance, supernatural, real world, business world, comedy, action, horror, betrayal, jealousy, friendship, brotherhood, and more. Red Moon Love is the first book in the Bloody Hunters Saga series.
