The Church is entering a season of change. Together, we need to restore, renew and rebuild to create a more hopeful, faith-filled future - and the book of Nehemiah shows us how. With contributions from Debra Green and Paul Weston, Cris Rogers explores how we can learn from Nehemiah's story and restore our hearts, our focus and our world so that the Church can thrive as we join in with God's heart for restoring all things. An inspiring call to action, this book will challenge and equip you to join God's mission and the full ministry of Jesus.
Holiness is totally about our orientation to a Holy, perfect God who sees us, calls out our name and blesses us abundantly. Holiness is often taught as being about how well we live out our Christian faith and what we should and shouldn't do. This makes it about how well we perform as a believer. In A Monkey's Orientation holiness is unpacked and looked at as more about orientating ourselves to the Fathers blessing, making it about where we are rather than what we do.
The church was never intended to be a group of people meeting to worship, but a living community of people all dying to themselves so that Jesus would be alive in them, and that they would then bring life to others ... practising resurrection. This book is for those who want to have their eyes opened to see the real Jesus and follow him in the great adventure of living the resurrection life.
This is a book about who God is and who we are in light of that. What we think about ourselves governs what we do. If we think we are powerless, then we will behave that way. If we believe we are weak, we will be weak. If we believe we have no gifts, we will not use our gifting. When we believe the wrong things about ourselves it stops us from stepping into the person we were created to be. The Bible tells us that in Jesus we are "a new creation" and yet, sometimes, we still wear the clothes of the old creation. But what if we knew what God knows about us? When we know what God knows about us we will do the things He knows we can do. Our potential is limitless...
The Bible Book by Book is a fully illustrated and accessible introduction to each book of the Bible. Taking the books in sequence, it explains genre and style, the locations involved, the main themes and some key points to bear in mind as you read. The Bible can be an intimidating book, but each introduction is designed so it can be read in five minutes. A list of further reading materials is also included for those who want to delve deeper into particular books or topics. This book is pithy, direct and engaging, and will help everyone to experience Scripture as the living, breathing story of God and His people.
Discipleship is central to a life of faith - and the Bible model of discipleship is more like apprenticeship than simply learning. This book is designed to help you not simply learn about what Jesus knew, but become more like Jesus by doing what he did. At the heart of this resource is a self-assessment process, called the 'Disciple-Making Tool', which helps you discern your 'shape' as a disciple: whether your strengths lie particularly in your hands, in contributing, creating and leading; in your heart, in loving, appreciating and belonging; or in your head, in knowing, thinking and understanding. Though many disciples can be overdeveloped in one area and underdeveloped in another, Jesus invites us to grow in all three areas in developing towards Christian maturity. These daily readings - which include Bible passages, reflections, exercises and prayer - will help you journey step by step in your spiritual formation for the sake of reaching the world.
Using the book of James as a road map, this multi-authored work will lead you on an adventure along the narrow road of discipleship. Only the Brave brings both challenge and excitement, while offering plenty of practical tips along the way! The five authors - Lisa Holmes, Krish Kandiah, Sim Dendy, Cathy Madavan, and Cris Rogers - each explore a chapter of James using these key themes: Face it; Live it; Tame it; Lose it; Finish it. They consider how we can use our heads, hearts, and hands to answer the challenge James, and ultimately Jesus himself, laid down. It takes courage to go beyond simply believing in Jesus: to live him, love him, and share him. Only the Brave urges us not to play it safe, but to live a life of abundance based on the example Jesus lived out on earth. Only the brave will change the world, and this book will inspire anyone who reads it to do just that.
