Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book to let people know how grief can affect you when it seems you've lost everything and how God will walk you through your recovery and restoration if you just let Him. I was raised in church and had a strong foundation in the LORD, so I believed God could get me through anything. But that's easy to say and not so easy to put into practice when God allows extraordinary trials to come into your life. There was a time when I thought God didn't love me. I thought He hated me. I thought I was cursed. I was so angry with God that I blamed Him for letting terrible things happen to my family. Each day when my feet hit the floor, I suffered in silence, worried about what others would say or think. Driving my car off a cliff looked like the only way out of my trials. But my autistic son saved my life. Read the extraordinary story of how that happened.

Book excerpt: In this O Me of Little Faith Ebook, author Jason Boyett brings you a transparent and personal account of his own of struggles with doubts and unbelief in living out his faith. With humor and frankness, Boyett uses personal anecdotes and a fresh look at Scripture to explore the realities of pursuing Christ through a field of doubt.After three decades of knowing God, understanding Christianity, and living a Christian life, Boyett has come to the place where he can voice the tough questions and travel the road of uncertainty with blinders off, candor on. The message along the way is one of encouragement: Relax. Rely on the grace of a merciful God, a kind father who realizes that his finite creatures must have doubts, should have questions, and will have trouble making sense of an infinite Creator. Ultimately, Boyett concludes that doubt and faith are not polar opposites, but actually work together, existing side-by-side. Uplifting, entertaining, hopeful, O Me of Little Faith will strike a chord with you and any Christian who's dealing with the uncertainties of living life in pursuit of a God who occasionally seems to disappear.

Download or read book The Pastor as Evangelist written by and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a minister, professor, and recognized leader in the field of evangelism comes a challenge to pastors to take a new look at their mission. Richard Stall Armstrong invites pastors to put on "evangelistic glasses" to perceive what it means to be a pastor-evangelist in terms of personal relationships and in light of the various factors that define evangelism. Clearly and compellingly, Armstrong shows how to take the responsibility for evangelism seriously. He analyzes in a concrete way the many contexts of evangelism--the difference between witnessing to the young and the old, to individuals and groups, on the telephone or on television. He counsels pastors to adopt not a particular method but rather a style that is nondogmatic, that blends consistency with flexibility, and, above all, one that reflects the integrity and power of the Christian message. Biblically based, theologically sound, and vocationally relevant, this book is full of useful ideas and practical suggestions that will benefit pastors, professors, and seminarians.
