All the people who have made an impact on history varied in many things, but they all had one thing in common - they worked hard. It is only true that "the heights by which great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight but while their companions slept, they kept toiling upwards into the sky." The Lord has given us work to do. He desires it accomplished. If we are to accomplish that work, we must put all that we are and all that we have into it.

In our Christian faith, we're either drawing closer to God and to his purposes for our lives or drawing further away. Like an athlete in training, there can be no middle ground.

The messages in this book were given as the last of a series of meetings called leadership courses for the people of God in Cameroon. At the time of preparing the messages I felt that I owed it to the Lord and his people to say all that was on my heart in case it was not possible for the audience to hear me in the future. I thought I should say my last word to the Church. Here it is. I have borrowed extensively from the thoughts of Watchman Nee in writing the message “The Cross and Our Priorities.” I believe that the Cross is central in the life and ministry of the believer.

This book, The Way of Christian Service by Zacharias Tanee Fomum, is the outflow of a heart burdened to see the marks of the lordship of Jesus Christ in every aspect of Christian service. It is the heart cry of a man who is desperate to see a new kind of minister on the horizon of Christian service - men and women who know God intimately, who fellowship with Him daily, and who commune with Him unceasingly.

In this book we present the greatness of God as the father of all goodness, and show the pilgrim how to know him. We have thought over these messages for over 10 years. We send them out with prayer that they bring great blessings to God's people.

In the early Church, only disciples were known. Those who belonged to the Lord Jesus were called “Disciples”. Who is a disciple? The Lord Jesus intended that everyone who is led to him, and who therefore knows him personally and is dynamically related to him, should enroll in the school of a Disciple Maker who will make him into a Disciple, which means somebody committed not only to be like Christ, but also to bring others to be like Christ.

Although the five books in this series are complementary and help the listener to have a more complete view of the theme, each book is complete in its own right and should be enjoyed for the profit of it. Although the books are rooted in the Word of God, they are written not merely to help listeners to know God’s point of view about the matters discussed but also to lead the believer beyond theoretical understanding into spiritual experience; for sanctification is, ultimately, not merely a doctrine but an experience.

The Lord has wrought something in my life between 1990 and today, largely in the area of deliverance from sin, deliverance from self, deliverance from the love of the world, deliverance from the love of the things of the world, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and the knowledge of the Lord. I now feel that I can write the book, though with fear and trembling, and not from a position of perfection, but from the position of one who has received unmerited grace to write it.

People must be led. When there is a leader, he is followed. The spiritual leader is the one who has made the most progress in knowing God and is serving Him. Such a person has authority with God which no one can take away from him. No one can remove him from leadership. No one can put him into leadership. His intimate knowledge of God, his close walk with Him, his sacrificial service for the Lord and His people, put him apart from the others, and those who want true spiritual leadership turn to him. This is my understanding of spiritual leadership.

Christian character is all-important. The Lord Jesus wants all his disciples to be like him in their character. He has put the Holy Spirit in each believer to work out that character. Only those whose character conforms in every way to that of the Lord Jesus can be said to be truly, entirely sanctified. This audiobook is about the character of Christ in the life of the Christian. We send it out with prayer that the almighty father should use it to work out the character of his begotten son in his adopted sons.

This audiobook, The Way of Life, being the first book in the series, has, as its theme, the way into the Christian life, the way into Jesus Christ, the way into God: the way of life. It is written specially to help you to find the Lord Jesus, give yourself to Him, and then, you will truly begin to live. As you begin to listen, we encourage you to press on right to the end and also answer all the questions at the end of each chapter.

Persecution is what one receives for loving the Lord and for serving him as he ought to be served. Persecution is a must for all who are true to the Lord. There is no way by which they can run away from it and remain true to their Lord.

In this fast-paced digital era, the way we communicate and connect with others has drastically changed. The advent of the internet and the proliferation of social media platforms have revolutionized various aspects of our lives, including ministry. As ministers, it is crucial to adapt to these changes and utilize the digital tools at our disposal to amplify our message online.

In the world, people look at success principally from the angle of what a person has done. What he is, is of secondary importance. In the kingdom of God, who a person is is crucial and what he does is only an overflow of what he is. God looks at success, first of all, from the point of who we are and only secondarily from what we do. What someone who is rightly related to the Lord does, and another who is out of touch with the Lord does, are miles apart before God.

This audiobook, Come Back Home, My Son. I Still Love You, is the first audiobook in the series: God Loves You. The series has its goal to bring every human being into a reconciling experience with God that will set him free from all his sin and bring him into union with the living God; a union that begins in time and continues in eternity. In Come Back Home, My Son. I Still Love You, the deliberate separation from God is presented and the unhappy fruit that man reaps because of his separation from God is exposed.

Discipleship is a very costly business, and in moments of severe trials, one may be tempted to ask, “Why go into all this trouble of suffering with Christ? Why not give up? Is there any reward?” A disciple of Christ is a person who has, first of all, received the Lord Jesus Christ as his or her personal Savior and is therefore reconciled to God, and, secondly, has set his whole heart, mind, and all to seek him.

Overcomers are people who, constantly facing choices between satisfying God or satisfying self, choose to satisfy God. Those who continue as overcomers are those who make God their consistent choice. By their consistent choice of the Lord (which also means that they consistently reject the wicked one), they satisfy God’s heart and make themselves the object of hell’s greatest fury and heaven’s greatest joy. This audiobook goes out with the prayer that the Lord of glory should produce many overcomers in His Church.

The Lord has a wonderful plan for you. He has purposed great things for you. Regardless of what you were and what you did as an unbeliever; regardless of the sins you have committed since you believed; regardless of your failure and unfaithfulness of the past; regardless of your having denied Him in the past, you can still rise and enter in His fullness, for no failure in the past or present needs to be final. You can turn to Him today and He will receive you and work out His great purpose for you.

The thought of many is that when a person is saved, God forgives him and wipes away all the consequences of his past sins - that he is free. His freedom is so complete that he has no responsibility to rightly terminate with the past and to carry out restitution to those he wronged then. This audiobook clearly examines that way of thinking in the light of the Scriptures and sets out the biblical message for those who have overcome and those who want to overcome.

This book, Celebrity a Mask, is the last book that Professor Fomum wrote with his own hand, after almost 56 years in the faith and 35 years of ministry both in Cameroon and abroad. Using the example of General Naaman in the Bible who was hiding his leprosy and covering it up with the mask of military success, money, honour, celebrity and the like, the author lays emphasis on the fact that most people wear a mask. In fact, many people hide their condition by wearing the mask of money, women, celebrity, etc., whereas their hearts are rotten with sin.
