Download or read book Romans Road For The Deaf A Step Of Faith written by Bryan Palumbo and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will God still use you if you wander away from Him and later repent? Many Christians think that God could never use them in His service because they were backslidden for a long time. It's difficult for them to get involved in a church ministry because they feel guilty and ashamed for straying away from the Lord. Even after they have repented and God has led them back to the church to grow strong in the Lord daily, they continue to struggle in the area of service. I know; I was one of them. However, one night at a missions conference, a missionary family sang a song, "Here am I, Lord, Send Me," and I asked God if He would send me and use me. God opened the door for me to go to the DeafNation World Expo with the Silent Word Ministries International team. During the week, God stirred my soul by showing me that Deaf people around the world need the Lord Jesus. For twenty-seven years, I was a careless Christian and lived with the attitude that "God will forgive me all the time." God finally broke my hard heart and let me see what He really wanted me to do. Through the burden God gave me to reach the Deaf around the world, Romans Road for the Deaf was born. It was a faith ministry, and we had to step out in faith and trust Him to start. The beginning was rough. However, God is always good, and He has saved many Deaf and Hearing souls at DeafNation expos. In this book, you will be inspired to read how God has worked in us and through us in His powerful ways to reach many thousands in just eight hours a day at every city where we have been. I pray that these stories will be a blessing to you and will help you to witness for Jesus with gladness and boldness wherever God may use you.

Download or read book Into the Silence written by Joe Kotvas and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Into the Silence was written with the intent to motivate, challenge and educate God's servants regarding the needs and uniqueness of ministering among the Deaf. It is also intended to serve as an informative introductory text for Deaf ministry and missions for pastors and Christian servants alike. There are many books on deafness, deaf education, sign language and Deaf culture. However, there are not many that deal with the subject of Deaf missions and the great need for missionaries and ministries for the Deaf worldwide. This book is an effort to help fill that need and to provide motivation and vision to those who would give their lives to the Lord in the service of the Deaf.Statistics presented have been researched but have not been scientifically verified. They were gleaned and developed from various sources with the intent of adding context to the need for ministry among the Deaf. When referring to the use of the word deaf in this book, "deaf" is used in reference to the medical/audiological/pathological loss of hearing and "Deaf" is used as it relates to Deaf community and Deaf culture. This book is primarily based on my personal experience, observation and opinion. It is not intended to contradict, criticize or stand above another's opinions or methods of ministry. I pray you will find this book helpful and insightful; especially to those whom God has called to work with the Deaf or those who are considering a Deaf ministry in their church as part of their global missionary effort. Time is short. We must be busy about the Master's business in reaching this greatly under-reached people group.
