Does God have a use for your money? Is money connected to our spirituality? How much are we supposed to give to God or to our Church? What can we learn about ourselves from the way we handle money? Money is an important topic to God. Look at how many times the following words are used in the Bible. Believe - 272 times, Pray 371 times, Love - 714 times and Give - 2,162 times. As you can see, God knows what a person does with their money can say a lot about a person. "Is tithing for today? Isn't it just an Old Testament Law? Aren't we under grace today?" Does it all sound like legalism to you? Have you been to a church where money is all they seem to talk about? Have you been turned off by all the high pressure preachers on television asking for money, so they can stay on the air, so they can tell you how to serve a God who meets all your needs - well, except their own television bills? When the offering plate goes by in your church, do you cheerfully give, or do you cringe inside hoping the offering will be a quick one? Are you giving God the amount He wants, or do you simply put a few dollars in to "tip" God for all His work in your life? If these questions strike an interest, then hang in there. We are about to take a journey through the Bible to discover the wonderful "Blessing Of The Tithe." Plus-Sheep, Goats, Pigs And Other People Who Attend Your Church. This bonus material will help the new believer understand who may be sitting next to them this Sunday at church.

Did you ever wonder why so many people seem to blindly follow the Holy Bible? Why do so many intelligent people accept what it says without questioning some of the questionable portions? Are these people simpletons? Is there any significant factual evidence that this book bears the marks of a supernatural or Supreme Being? Or are we supposed to just take it all on faith? It Really Is God's Book gives a brief overview of the astounding facts that distinguish the Holy Bible from every other "holy book" in the world. After looking at the data, you will soon realize that the Bible simply stands apart and outclasses every other religious writing in the world. The argument that "all religions are the same" will quickly vanish as you examine the uniqueness of the Bible. We should be grateful for this magnificent gift from God. Multitudes have lost their lives trying to read it, translate it into other languages, and simply believe and live it. Look inside and discover the beauty of the Word of God. At the end we included a short summary on God's Plan for Man to give you an idea of just what God is up to with us. Bonus Section - Understanding God's Plan For Man Why is God hidden from us? Why is He silent? Why doesn't He fix the world's pressing problems like world hunger, war and injustice? Are there meaningful answers to life's big questions or are we just supposed to live our lives without understanding these things? Look inside and see that there actually is a picture on the front of the box we call the Bible. That picture will help you put the puzzle pieces of your life into the bigger picture of God's Plan for Man.

Have you ever wondered why the Bible spends so much ink on individuals who were going through extended times of trials and tribulations? Why does God spend so many chapters on their horrific stories? Could He be trying to tell us something about Himself and even us? The contemporary Christian life has sometimes been characterized as a glamorous and exciting life of only answered prayers and prosperity. Serving the Lord is exciting and there are many thrilling moments, but the balance of Scripture paints a picture that can be somewhat different from our modern version of Christianity. This book is in no way meant to discourage those wanting to serve God, but rather is a road map to help serious disciples find their way during God's seasons of preparation. As the Lord used others to see me through some very dark days, I pray this material will help shine a light on the path of all walking the same road. There is nothing more important or fulfilling than walking in your specific God given call or purpose. Don't let the journey through the valley of the shadow of death or the demons that live there persuade you to go back. Finally, let me remind all of us that we all have "The message" to tell the world, and that is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But we also each have "a message" of what God has worked in our lives. We discover our message while studying at Roadkill Seminary. That is why the Bible says in Revelations 12:11. We overcome the devil by the blood of the lamb (that's the simple Gospel), and the word of our testimony (that's our story), loving not our lives unto death (that's Roadkill Seminary). If you have dropped out of God's School of Ministry, let me remind you, you are still enrolled.

Are you struggling with a sinful habit or impure desires? Do you repent of it over and over? Are you wondering if you'll ever be free? Have you given up trying to fight and have made a truce with it? Have you simply grown indifferent to your habit? If these questions interest you, then take the time to read through this book two or three times. Yes I just said two or three times, because there is a lot here for you to consider. You Can Be Free provides proof every person can be free from life controlling habits and addictions. Reading it several times will be needed in order to break through your current wrong thoughts and beliefs that are keeping you from your freedom. Look up and study these Scriptures until they are deep in your spirit. Always remember this, Christianity really works and "you," even you, can be free God has ordained it so. If He ever set a person free, then He has to do it for you too because He is no respecter of persons. There are, however, some things you need to know about how you think about your freedom. If you will be open and teachable you will discover how to be free in Jesus Christ. Just by reading this book you will bring yourself closer to the victory you've been praying for Jesus said when you know the truth; the truth will set you free. The truth will overwhelm the falsehoods in your life if you apply them. You are going to absolutely love your new life of freedom and liberty in Christ. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed

Why do we see the same political entrenchment between the two parties at every election cycle? How can so many well educated people not see eye to eye on the most basic issues? Why do we see the same stubbornness at the PTA meeting, the board meeting at work or the family squabble in our own homes? Is there something going on here that we are missing? A Better Way To Govern will make you think beneath the surface of your decision making process. Many of your presuppositions will come to light as never before as you audit your political and religious mindset. Your own thinking will become apparent in a way you may not have considered before. For some, this material may seem too nebulous for others it may seem irrelevant. I dare say it is more important to potential solutions in your life and in our world than we realize. If you are unconcerned about expanding your worldview, I ask you to consider those for whom you are responsible for. This may help you better lead them. Why even bother to consider this philosophical line of reasoning? Because you and I know there is a lack of life giving solutions in our institutions and relationships as humans. We don't need more energy pouring into the same strategies which produce the same results. We are missing something. Whether it is your church or marriage, the local school board meeting, your state legislature or Congress, we seem to have become stuck in a continual quagmire of irreconcilable differences. There seems to be some hidden reason why we haven't come together to resolve life's pressing issues. I believe there is a reason for our "stuckness" and that we can change it with some new insight and courage. If you are ready to switch things up a bit, read on.

Have you ever wanted to know what was going on the behind the scenes of your church or ministry organization? Would you like to be a fly on the wall during some of their leadership meetings? Have you ever thought about what the effects of spiritual warfare are on Christian organizations around the world and what we can do about it? What In Hell Is Going On takes an honest look at the fierce war taking place around us. Are you aware of the demonic strategies aimed at your leaders? I can tell you from experience, Hell is trying to destroy everything your group is trying to do for God. This is not some melodrama or a sensational scare tactic. Neither is this information some hyper spiritualization of the natural events going on around us. This book pulls back the curtain and reveals what the opposition to the Ministry of Jesus Christ looks like where the rubber meets the road where you live. This is a candid and honest look at the cost of serving God in a lost world. It is not meant discourage anyone from serving the Lord; but it is written to sober us up so you and I won't become one of the discouraging spiritual statistics you are about to read. I suppose one purpose of this book is like a Drill Sergeant preparing soldiers for war. This material can save your life and keep you in the fight for the long run. It can also point you to the honest and transparent people you will need in order to finish well. With a responsibility to prepare the next generation of believers for Christian service, I take this job seriously. I will tell you things you probably have never been told before about the Ministry. Yes it's finally time for you to have this adult conversation about how the saints of God are advancing the Kingdom of God.

Why don't more Christians work together in your town? Is it because we are immature or is because the Devil is better at what he does than we are at what we do? Working Together For Jesus is written for Christians who believe God is calling the Body of Christ to work together in greater ways for the final ingathering of souls. If you are working (or want to work) side by side with other believers in your ministry, church or city, this material will help you understand some of the reasons why we have allowed ourselves to be so easily divided and why there has been "conflict in the camp." As we look at the world around us we see our planet rushing towards one world government through computer language as we go on line with the Inter-"net." This is only a reflection of how our God is preparing His "net" to catch men, as ministries across the land are networking together, speaking the same language ... "Jesus is Lord." Truly the prayer of Jesus Christ in John 17; (that we would be one) is coming to pass right before our discerning eyes. To accomplish this great harvest and maturing of the saints, the Lord gave five ministry gifts or functions to the Body of Christ. He gave the Church five ministries because He knew it would take all five to get the job done. Yet, there is often misunderstanding between these ministry gifts to the Church, which has hindered the effectiveness of the Body of Christ in our cities. I submit the reason for much of the division in the Body has less to do with our doctrinal differences and more to do with our immaturity and ministry motivation. Do you believe the Church of Jesus Christ is ready to step into the kind of maturity that answers Jesus' prayer and brings in the last great harvest? If so, then you may find some new tools here that will help you help others join the team.

Is there a way to make sense of all the sermons and teachings we hear as believers? Where do all these spiritual lessons lead? Did you ever wish you could have a bird's eye view of your spiritual journey, to see where you have come from and what you are heading into? The Inner Journey reminds us when Jesus walked the earth He used many parables and illustrated sermons to communicate spiritual truth. In these parables He used fig trees, tares, leaven, seeds, a pearl, wineskins, a wedding feast, talents, a coin, as well as sheep and goats to get His point across. Yet in Scripture itself, there is a marvelous road map to spiritual maturity not commonly understood by many believers. Something akin to what Nicolas Cage discovered in the movie "National Treasure." When his character used special glasses, you could see a hidden treasure map appear on the Declaration of Independence. The Holy Bible is our Declaration of Independence from sin and Satan. Hopefully this book, with the Holy Spirit's help, will be your special glasses so you can find the treasure that's been hidden, not from us, but for us. The Lord has truly given us a map or a template by which we can understand His nature and His will for us in the Holy Scriptures. God put in His Bible a wonderful diagram or treasure map to help us see the three stages or levels of Christian maturity. I believe the Tabernacle helps illustrate the progressive nature of our relationship with Him. Learning about the Tabernacle will open our eyes to a holy God who is drawing us to Himself. You will finally understand where you have come from and what you are headed into. Your future has God Himself waiting for you. Press on towards your upward call.

Do you have a sense of power in your life? Not natural energy because you took your vitamins today; but have you ever experienced a heavenly ability rush into your life before? If you haven't, would you like to? If you are a Christian, it probably won't be long before someone asks you if you have been filled with the Spirit of God. Questions like, "Do you speak in tongues?" or "Have you been baptized in the Holy Spirit?" will be asked of almost every Christian sometime in their life. This subject has caused many Christians to divide into different theological camps. One religious group denunciates the evils of speaking in tongues as a counterfeit of the original manifestation we see in the first century; the other promotes the benefits and timelessness of God's supernatural gifts. Researchers state that by the year 2050 there will be one billion Christians who have experienced this phenomenon God Gives Us Power will help Christians understand some of the common misconceptions and controversies surrounding the infilling and gift of the Holy Spirit. Our heavenly Father has not left us ill equipped. He has given us access to the same ability His Son utilized when He walked the earth. It is our hope that regardless of what theological camp you are from, you will truly remain open and hungry for the fullness of what God has for you. May each of us be filled with the fullness of God's holy presence and power. On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. John 7:37-39
