Book excerpt: In the book Finding Answers in The Holy Ghost, author Anthony D. Montgomery presents a detailed illustration of the various ways the Holy Ghost enable the Christian to overcome any trial. Too often has God been placed in a one sided view to appease the followers of a movement; however you will see after finishing the book that this gift was preordained to break the constraints of the devil. He addresses almost every instance of the dealings of the Holy Ghost in the lives of all mankind. God remains the central inert that alone can perform how He wants when He wants. He contends that the recipe to seeing the Holy Ghost move doesnt contend on anything but God Himself. You will travel through the different verses and get a solid foundation to the workings of Jesus. While exploring the intenseness of time, characters and central theme, there will be no doubt left that God alone is in full control of His creation. The book reminds us constantly that we are sheep with one Shepherd that left the Holy Ghost to us. The only bias is that in Him we move and have our very being. Anthony focus from beginning to end that God and Him alone is the only one that has power to produce change in our lives. People have tried to the best of their ability to explain what faith is and almost in every instance they fail because they fall short of attaching it to its source Jesus. Faith must have an object and that object is Jesus! Jesus is the only deity that has remained constant in His being able to help mankind. Although we cant unquestionably explain Him does not negate the fact that He is real. Many people think when they succeed in life it comes from luck; but the Christian must understand that his success comes from a prepared Savior that died for us. Jesus left a lasting message that He did not live to see; however He was assured it would come to past. Not only did He leave us as irrevocable beneficiaries; but the policy gave us innumerable indemnities that continue to pay benefits even after death. While reading through the book there is a constant reminder of a saying he heard as an early convert: never study to get a message, read God word and He will give you a message. Our life is a reflection of the message of salvation redeemed from the gift of our Savior. The recorded events of the Bible are detailed to show us that God is neither offensive nor defensive; on the contrary, He is Alpha and Omega. He doesnt respond like man as if He was caught off guard to the situation; He knew it would happen and had a response prepared in every case. By knowing what will happen; the all knowing Savior only allow what He knows will move us closer to His purpose. This book will keep you focused on Jesus and remove all doubt to His omnipresence. When you understand that God is the source; you wont get angry at the trials. Faith is the gift that we have that can take us from natural to supernatural through obedience. While reading you can take time to reflect as Anthony uses illustrations to what God is revealing to him through the text. The anointing is reflected with how God uses him to keep it simple when explaining Gods word. God intended for us to always pray and leave our future in His hand. The theme of this book is central in its focus to Jesus and His righteousness.

Download or read book The Passage from Boyhood to Manhood written by David R. Grimm and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At about the same time in my life that I became a father, I learned the principle that masculinity bestows masculinity. However, since I did not learn this principle until I was almost 40 years old, I grew up struggling mightily in my own masculine identity and maturity. So I also knew from experience how critically important it was for me to fulfill my responsibility in passing along this principle to my two sons, Jonah and Jacob. Therefore, I created a list of seven statements of truth that encompassed what I wanted to teach my sons about becoming and living as a man, an authentic man, the kind of godly man that is described in the Bible. I began telling my sons these truths every night at an early age so they would become engrained in them, as part of their very essence, and my boys would never doubt them. I also spent years preparing for the time when I would elaborate on the full meaning of each truth with my sons, as part of a day of celebration of their entry into manhood. Those years of preparation became this book, which I published to help other fathers (or father-figures/mentors) train their sons (or any boy) how to become a real man. My hope is that this book will be a blessing and an encouragement to every boy who receives it as he enters into (and lives out) authentic manhood.

Download or read book Stand Up written by René Banglesdorf and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stand Up addresses the growing need for women to enter the narrative of how American culture is presently being shaped and leave their mark on a world screaming for relevance, excellence, and truth. Divisiveness and double standards have overrun our culture. If everyone stands up and models decency, courage, and good manners, communities and families will flourish. Stand Up is a battle cry for women to take a posture of readiness and action, determine their purpose, plan for successes, and overcome the loneliness that threatens this silent majority. René Banglesdorf, an entrepreneur, encourages women to exemplify good behavior in the areas of temptation, forgiveness, and hypocrisy—three areas that threaten especially Christian women’s credibility in a searching world. Stand Up explains how women who want to leave a legacy can repurpose their fears, recover from failures, get what they want out of life, and press on to fulfill their destiny. The unique perspective from a female executive in a 99-percent-male-dominated role—who spent many of her career-development years as a stay-at-home mom—compels women of all ages to believe the best can be ahead of them if they indeed stand up, stand out, and stand firm in their beliefs.

Download or read book The Succession Principle written by David L. McKenna and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-12-23 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Succession is the hot topic in leadership development, but the subject has rarely been addressed in Christian literature. As a college, university, and seminary president who experienced three successions in leadership, David McKenna is eminently qualified to speak on the subject. He begins by introducing us to the Succession Principle: What we bring to leadership is important. What we do in leadership is more important. What we leave from our leadership is most important of all. Once our priority shifts from success to succession, the door is open to read John 17 as the Prayer of Succession for Jesus. In this final report, Jesus transfers to his disciples and to us the same enduring trust, transforming truth, and unifying love that he has received for leadership from his Father. With these legacies come specific gifts of succession to complete our task, develop disciples, advance the kingdom, and see the fulfillment of Christ's promise, "Greater things than these shall you do." Succession in the spirit of Christ, then, is written not in terms of success, but in the seamless transition of sustainable gifts culminating in the gift of greater things.
