Church Leadership

We thirst for purpose, clarity, fulfillment and direction in our lives. How do we go about sorting through all the self-help books, talks and seminars? The common, normal solutions to navigating life are focused on strengths, gifts, and passion. The reality is quite contrarian to what seems to make sense. The revelations is found in the divine fingerprints of all that we are: our life story, what energized and de-energizes us, our rhythms, and even our pain and weaknesses. It's a different way of approaching clarity of life.

Peter made all the classical, Christian mistakes. He spoke before thinking, lacked faith, and even denied the Lord Jesus Christ. But Peter had a moldable, open heart, and the Lord knew it. All the mistakes Peter made helped him understand what other Christians face, and his writings both warn and encourage readers today. Too many of today’s religious entities and Christian individuals are functioning on spiritual autopilot, rarely pausing to pray in earnest and seek the Lord’s will for their lives.

Often, as people read the Bible, they come under the conviction that God wants them to change their ways. Or perhaps He wants to encourage them with the example of one of His fearful but obedient children. Or warn them of impending disaster if they persist in behavior He does not condone. Why do Bible people affect them this way? Because they are not legendary giants or superheroes; they are ordinary people.

There is a movement that is misleading hundreds of millions of Christians and seekers. Today's Church is being sapped of its influence, vitality, and sustainability. It is sinking, submerging like a leaky boat taking on water. This report reveals that to destroy true Christian faith, one must simply compromise or ignore the first few chapters about creation in Genesis. Here we expose the depth to which compromises with secular opinions have embedded themselves into the submerging Church.

Leaders often rely too heavily on their limited intellect and logic in making God-honoring decisions. But, without exception, our intellect and logic are the problem, not the solution. Instead, consulting the One who is limitless when faced with important decisions will always bear better fruit. This is the heart of Deisensus-led decision-making! In Deisensus Leadership, Dr. Ron Crum implores leaders to appoint the Holy Spirit as their Master Decision-Maker and join their teams in a united effort to seek direction from Above in all things.

Questo libretto, pubblicato per la prima volta in inglese nel 1932, e in italiano nel 1949, spiega con linguaggio semplice ma non per questo carente in completezza, ogni passo della Messa, sia nelle azioni del sacerdote che in quelle dei fedeli. Si dà anche molta importanza alle radici storiche e a come esse si sono trasmesse negli anni e all'etimologia delle parole usate.

The 1950s were a time of almost unprecedented fear among Americans as a result of McCarthyism. In the midst of that pandemic of fear, one man had the courage to speak out. His name was Edward Murrow. On March 9th of 1954, he gave an address to the nation that is just as relevant today as it was then. It is once again time that American Christians remember that "we are not descended from fearful men". Our ancestors resolutely refused to live their lives in fear. This short collection of five sermons that were preached during 2020 will help remind you of that precious truth.

Without the truth about the supernatural realm, life can be impossible. Miracles are needed everyday. Get yours! Answered prayers are easier than you might think.

The Epistle to the Romans, or Letter to the Romans, is the sixth book in the New Testament. Biblical scholars agree that it was composed by Paul the Apostle to explain that salvation is offered through the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the longest of the Pauline epistles. Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to the Book of Romans, and learn about bibles.

In most cases, when a church needs a lawyer, it hires a lawyer. When it needs a plumber, it hires a plumber. But when it comes to making business decisions, most churches convene well-meaning but often inexperienced volunteers to form a committee, then they take a month and vote on the color to paint a door in the nursery. Conducting business this way kills the vision and drains the passion out of right-brained, creative, relational pastors and ministry leaders.

In Reclaiming Church, J. J. Warren continues his call to reaffirm the Church be welcoming to all, including young people like those he led at Sarah Lawrence College who "didn't know God could love them because their churches said God didn't."
