Book excerpt: A Minister's Quick Reference: 100 Sermon Titles, Points, and Scripture (Simple, Moderate, and Complex Outlines) was written with the intent to make it easier for persons preparing God's Word to spend more time in thought and meditation than in the development of their sermon, ministry or educational project, message, or devotion. They are benefited by eliminating the steps of finding a title, scripture, and/or the writing of an outline. The objective of this manual is to simplify the task of preaching, teaching, and evangelizing. The desire is to help others create much easier their works for ministry. This reference manual is best suited for the academic, religious, and liturgical markets for pastors, ministers, students, teachers, lay people, and individuals looking for a guided means of study. It is a compilation of sermons, with varying formats, developed over a period of years from the outpouring and inspiration of the Holy Spirit. A Minister's Quick Reference: 100 Sermon Titles, Points, and Scripture (Simple, Moderate, and Complex Outlines) is divided into three sections, with some outlines being more detailed, considering length of time and direction of thought. It includes sermon outlines that have been preached over a period of eighteen years. Regardless of whether a person is preparing a sermon for their preaching course, or developing a sermon to be a message or devotion to a congregation or small group, there is opportunity for conservation of time and energy spent in their lesson construction.
Download or read book Basic Training for the Fight of Your Life the Final Stand written by Robert Mayhew and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the book is to revive the spirit of real Christianity in the United States, stand against our 'Adversary' and turn from our collective moral drift. Done as an analogy by telling my experiences in Basic Training in the Army and how those experiences relate to Christianity. The book is divided into three parts. The first part is Individual Training skill sets. For example, my volunteering in the Army and the transition from civilian to soldier. Likewise the transition from not being a Christian to voluntarily wanting to be one and the transition that takes place. Another is my experience on a compass course where I started out doing well but got lost and finally found my way to the finish. I compare the compass to the Bible and relate it to life. Other examples as well. The second part is Opposing Forces Training where I learned how the enemy operates and received training focused around defeating him. I apply that to learning the ways of Satan because just like a victorious army, you must know your spiritual enemy to be successful against him. And the third and last phase is the reclamation which is brought about only by the application of the first two phases. That is reinforced by quotes from prominent people from the past.

He is also the brother of Wyatt Cullen, who quarterbacked his team to the Texas State Championship last season--not to mention the son of former NFL quarterback and local legend, Troy Cullen. To be a Cullen in Texas is to be football royalty . . . which leaves 14-year-old Jake in a Texas-sized shadow. Being a good teammate comes naturally to Jake; being a winner and a celebrity does not. Jake may be a Cullen, and he may play quarterback, but he is not his brother or his father. He's just like every other kid: fighting for every ounce of respect, awkward around a pretty girl, in awe of his famous family, and desparate to simultaneously blend in and cast his own shadow. Inspired by the real-life Manning family of quarterbacks and set amid the football-crazy culture of Texas, QB 1 is a coming-of-age story perfect for the fan of MILLION-DOLLAR THROW and HEAT.

Etnier offers a system of positive coaching that can be applied to any sport, from the beginner level to high school athletics, and explains that good coaching requires working with young athletes at their developmental level and providing feedback designed to keep children engaged and having fun. Etnier gives easy-to-understand guidance on important aspects of successful coaching—including information on the development of children's motor skills, communication with a young athlete's parents, and nurturing a growth-oriented mind-set—making this a critical resource for youth coaches of all experience levels.
