It has been recorded by some astute observer of life that "
Knowledge is power " If that is the truth, then ignorance is
impotence Nowhere is this reality of greater consequence than in
the arena of the classic battle between good and evil; right and
wrong; holiness and unholiness No one can live what one has never
known nor can one know what one has never heard. This book, "It's
all in the Knowing," puts to rest every excuse that the Child of
the King has for living beneath the privileges of the sons of God
Read this book Study this book Examine it with your Bible in your
hand and you will see that your prayer life will be revolutionized
You will rejoice because your expectations of God will be those
that will cause Him to smile at His sons who are living as His sons
If you allow this book to become a Knowing in your heart; a
Revelation in your spirit - you will walk as a son of God among men
"It's all in the Knowing " Bishop J. A. Tolbert 1st
Renowned teacher, writer of the acclaimed The Spirit of the
Disciplines, and one of today's most brilliant Christian thinkers,
Dallas Willard, now offers a new six-session small group Bible
study (DVD/digital video sold separately). This guide offers a

discipleship. Gracefully weaving biblical teaching, popular

necessity of making profound changes in how we view our lives and
live out our faith. This study masterfully captures the core of

I was born at Fort Benning in Columbus Georgia. I have three
children, Donnie, Missy, and Kellen . Six grandchildren, Bryttany
Jeremy, Keilah, Jacob, Jeremiah, and Shawn, and would like to
dedicate this book to them. Children are my passion. The Lord spoke
to me one day and said He would teach me to teach, and has been
faithful to His word. I have been a Sunday School teacher for many
years from babies to adults. The Lord also inspired me with
Christmas programs. I have had the privilege to minister to women
in prison. Looking forward to many more years in service to my Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ... Gen. 1:31- And God saw everything that
he had made, and, behold it was very good. KJ
Author and pastor Andy Stanley explains what made the earliest
Christian movement so compelling and resilient...and what we need
to change today to make it so again. Once upon a time there was a
version of the Christian faith that was practically irresistible.
After all, what could be more so than the gospel that Jesus ushered
in? Why, then, isn't it the same with Christianity today? In this
six-session video Bible study (DVD/video streaming not included),
Pastor Andy answers questions like: What did first-century
Christians know that we don't-about God's Word, about their lives,
about love? What did they do that we're not doing? What makes
Christianity so resistible in today's culture? What needs to change
in order to repeat the growth our faith had at its beginning? Andy
is deeply concerned with the present-day church and its future, and
he believes that many of the solutions to our issues can be found
by investigating our roots. It's time to hit pause and consider the
faith modeled by our first-century brothers and sisters who had no
official Bible, no status, and little chance of survival. It's time
to embrace the version of faith that initiated-against all human
odds-a chain of events resulting in the most significant and
extensive cultural transformation the world has ever seen. This is
a version of Christianity we must remember and re-embrace if we
want to be salt and light in an increasingly savorless and dark
world. Designed for use with the Irresistible Video Study
(9780310100515) and the Irresistible core book (9780310536970),

Today's Christian singles are as complex and multi-faceted as
the numerous challenges they consistently encounter. In "Scenarios
for Singles," Ms. Richardson presents a collection of scenarios and
sketches that portray Christian singles confronting an extensive
range of moral dilemmas. Along with each dilemma comes the
opportunity to make bad situations better by both knowing and
obeying the Word of God. The guidelines for effectively seeking
definitive answers are shown through Bible study, critical thinking
and group interaction.
Richardson, a born-again Christian, relies on her personal
experiences and the experiences of others to share relatable
situations accompanied by four-fold lesson plans that include a
case study, role play, group interaction, and Bible study guidance.
Christian singles are encouraged to rely on scripture as they
contemplate a variety of questions:
Should an unmarried person go out to dinner with a married
person?
Is fasting more about giving up pleasure or about repentance
over sins?
Does a woman have a right to wear what she wishes to church?
When seeking a mate should all trivial flaws become deal
breakers?
Can forgiveness bridge a gap in relationships?
Single people frequently find themselves inundated with
difficult choices and often choose the world's perspective simply
because they are not familiar with the biblical viewpoint.
Scenarios for Singles provides the opportunity for God's people to
dialogue about important issues from a solid foundation and a
master plan.
Gets straight to the heart of the subject
'This resource provides careful teaching in the very best
traditions of SPCK. It is both detailed and readable, and provides
a comprehensive introduction to the Christian faith as lived out
through the Church. I commend it to all those seeking to establish
deep foundations on which to build their faith.' John Sentamu,
Archbishop of York 'One of the joys of being a bishop is to preside
at a confirmation. The joy is greater when the candidates have been
well prepared and are full of expectancy and a desire to grow in
faith. Faith Confirmed will help produce confirmands like that. It
is a wonderful resource. ' Michael Perham, Bishop of Gloucester and
President of Affirming Catholicism Faith Confirmed is an
introduction to what Anglican Christians believe. It is written for
those preparing for confirmation in the Anglican Church and for all
those who want to know more about the essentials of the Christian
faith. This revised edition has been completely updated for the
twenty-first century.
The Christian churches have frequently pioneered educational
advances ? from the seventh century down to the nineteenth.
Schools, universities and colleges of education stand as tangible
evidence of these efforts. Do all these ventures belong merely to
educational history ? relics of the days when Christianity was
influential enough to play a leading part in education? Or has
Christianity still a distinctive contribution to make to
educational thought and practice? The educationalists who
contributed to the Hibbert Lectures of 1965 are convinced that it
has. They examine the nature of this contribution and show how it
is to be made a time when education seems to be mainly influenced
by secular rather than religious assumptions and aims. The six
lectures fall into two main parts. Christianity in the schools is
the theme of the first three; Christianity in higher education that
of the last three.
Acclaimed teacher Roy B. Zuck reveals how teachers can tap into
the power of divine energy to fulfill their calling and use their
gifts at a deeper level. By applying these timeless, spirit-focused
principles, teachers will learn how to teach more effectively and
inspire students spiritually.
