Books on leadership in various aspects of life and work abound. But are the principles upon which these books are grounded biblical?

Within this time-saving and convenient Bible commentary, acclaimed Bible teacher Warren Wiersbe takes you through each book of the Bible, chapter by chapter, and makes it easy to: Develop your own Bible reading program Meditate on the Scriptures - seeking the truths God has for you Discover the rich, life-changing insights Wiersbe has gleaned from Scripture during his own years of walking with the Lord Understand and apply the spiritual truths you discover "When we read the Bible devotionally, we focus on the spiritual essentials, not the historical or geographical accidentals. God has often encouraged me from the first chapter of Joshua, but that doesn't mean that I can walk into the Jordan River and expect it to open up before me.However I have seen Him "open up" difficult situations in ministry as I have trusted him. The Word of God is given to warn us and to offer hope to us. It can only do these things for us only if we receive the Word personally and let it work in our lives. " W. Wiersbe

Oh, to be like Him--sympathetic, reaching out to others in distress!

Jesus called Himself "the Son of man." He showed compassion toward all kinds of people . . . the sinful . . . the rejected . . . the brokenhearted . . . men and women . . . little children. The hopeless and the helpless looked to Him, and He never failed to meet their needs. As you study Dr. Luke's record of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ, you will better understand God's compassion and thereby be motivated to a greater degree to show loving concern for others . . . and to do what you can in God's power to help them in their distress. As never before, Dr. Wiersbe believes, God is calling His people to BE COMPASSIONATE

"Pity is a depressant," wrote the eccentric philosopher Friedrich Nietzche. "A man loses power when he pities."

Nietzche went mad in the year Adolph Hitler was born, but Hitler carried on that philosophy. He despised other people and stood apart from them. He especially despised the weak and the handicapped, and he developed programs for exterminating them. Robert Payne wrote, "Even on festive occasions he remained singularly alone, the flow of emotion ceasing abruptly when it came in contact with him. . . . He demanded for himself an immunity from people" (The Life and Death of Adolph Hitler, Praeger, p. 461). What a contrast to Jesus Christ, the compassionate Son of Man! In his Gospel, Dr. Luke describes our Lord as one who mingled with people, including publicans and sinners, and who shared the burdens of the afflicted and the weak. Jesus has proved conclusively that pity is a sign of strength, not of weakness; and that God's power flows through loving hearts.

I think it was George Bernard Shaw who said that if the other planets are inhabited, they must be using the earth as their insane asylum. Our world is filled with hurting people who need a loving touch and a word of encouragement. Jesus has put His people here to let the world know that He cares. His command to us is, "Be compassionate!"

Christians in the twenty-first century need encouragement and inspiration to lead lives that honor God. When faith is weak or the pressures of the world seem overwhelming, remembering the great men and women of the past can inspire us to renewed strength and purpose. Our spiritual struggles are not new, and the stories of those who have gone before us can help lead the way to our own victories.
"50 People Every Christian Should Know "gives a glimpse into the lives of such people as Charles H. Spurgeon, G. Campbell Morgan, A. W. Tozer, Fanny Crosby, Amy Carmichael, Jonathan Edwards, James Hudson Taylor, and many more. Combining the stories of fifty of these faithful men and women, beloved author Warren W. Wiersbe offers today's readers inspiration and encouragement in life's uncertain journey.

When David volunteered to meet Goliath's challenge to Israel, King Saul was concerned about what David would wear into battle. In fact, Saul placed his own armour on David. But it didn't fit, and it would have proved more of a hindrance than a help in David's battle. He was better off without the king's armour, carrying just his sling and five smooth stones.

But there's no reason for today's believer to be gazing off toward the battlefield mumbling, I just don't have anything to wear. In Ephesians 6, God tells believers exactly what to wear to stand firm and His armour is tailor made. Stand will reacquaint you with each piece of armour God has provided and you'll learn how to use that armour in your daily fight on the battlefield.

Don't Be Fooled by the Merchandisers of Error!
Some people who claim to represent the truth are really merchandisers of error. They deceive, mock, and defile, as their mouths speak "great swelling words" (Jude 16).
- Who are these false teachers?
- How can you recognize them?

Based on 2 Peter, 2 and 3 John, and Jude, this book will help you sharpen your spiritual discernment. Join Dr. Wiersbe as he uncovers the disguises of today's religious impostors. Religious deception is on the rise. Don't be fooled by the masquerade.

What is freedom. . . and do you have it?
Is freedom the right to do whatever you want to do, whenever you want to do it? Most people would say, "Yes!" They're wrong! That kind of "freedom" is the worst kind of bondage. It turns life into a prison. You think you're free when you're really a slave--and you can't free yourself.
Real freedom begins with knowing God and enjoying the liberty He alone can give.
In the exciting Book of Exodus, Moses explains how God delivers you from bondage, takes you to Himself, and leads you in a path of responsible freedom. As you study Be Delivered, you will discover:
- What freedom really is and how you can have it
- How God cares for His people and guides them day-by-day
- What real worship is and how to enjoy it
- How obeying God's will sets you free
No matter what may be binding you today, you can Be Delivered.
