The "Glory" of God represents His divine qualities. They are
revealed through His beauty, brightness, splendor, and radiance as
well as His visible revelation of Himself. A fundamental belief in
God is manifested individually, and corporately, through the local
church. The local church represents a gathering place where any
number of souls are called together and united in one vow, for
divine worship, where the pure Word is preached, Godly living is
taught, based upon The Holy Bible, as given by the head of the
church - The Lord Jesus Christ. Further, we will discover that the
local church serves three primary purposes: (1)It represents the
body of believers who are saved by or because of their relationship
with Jesus Christ (Body of Christ), (2)It is comprised of those who
are assembled together by their bounds of habitation (the local
church), and (3)We are the Bride of Christ (the local church is
charged to teach its members how to live out the principles
contained within the pages of The Holy Bible - God's Word). Kevin
Wayne Johnson continues with his simple and systematic writing
style to clearly demonstrate The Power in the Local Church within
three parts and nine chapters. Part I - What is the Church? -
establishes that the local church is revealed in Matthew 16:18 and
cannot be destroyed by anyone who chooses to come against its
message or existence. Part II - What is My Role in the Local
Church? - examines the critical importance of reconciling others to
Christ as His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:18-20). These actions
are manifested through service to others and understanding our
specific roles within the confines of the local church. Part III -
How Do I Glorify God by Fulfilling My Role in the Local Church? -
is accomplished through our good works, togetherness (unity), and
by "staying in your lane" through the twenty spiritual gifts that
God gives us to compliment, in lieu of compete, other gifts within
the Body of Christ and in the local church. We are instructed by
God's Word to assemble ourselves together (Hebrews 10:24-25) for
the purpose of comforting one another, to promote good works, and
to demonstrate love and affection to everyone within our sphere of
influence. It is through our good works that God is glorified
(Matthew 5:16). Then, The Power in the Local Church is personified
through us that represent Him in the earth.
Called to be Light in the Workplace - A Workbook is the revised and
expanded version of the second book (2003) in this series. This
workbook challenges its readers to be 'light' on their respective
job(s) in each of the three phases of career progression: (1)
Entry-level (trainee or intern), (2) journey-man level (middle
manager), and (3) senior level (executive or mentor). God's Word
ministers about how to encourage others at work and influence
positive change in the midst of dysfunctional places of employment.
Through the lives of Jesus, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Evangelist
Billy Graham, Dr. Ben Carson, and many other recognizable and
unrecognizable names, excellence in their jobs has raised the level
of productivity of others. It is systematically divided into three
parts, with three chapters each. Supported by the Scriptures
throughout, the central theme of each chapter focuses on specific
ways to let our 'light' shine and to Give God the Glory while at
work each day. As with all books in the Give God the Glory series,
it concludes with a family prayer to reinforce the contents within
the books' nine chapters. Readers are encouraged to refer to the
Give God the Glory series as collections of prayers, daily prayer
books, and prayer books. Prayer shall change our lives for the
better as we learn how to apply God's Word to our everyday lives.
It can be used as a daily prayer book to learn why and how do I
pray.
