Download or read book Speaking of Jesus written by J. Mack Stiles and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gospel really is the best news anyone will ever receive. So why do Christians shy away from talking about Jesus outside of church? And, when they do speak of Jesus, why do they often get a disinterested or scornful reponse? Mack Stiles offers a wealth of answers, ideas and stories in this heads-up, hands-on evangelism handbook. His creative strategies for reaching an ethnically, culturally, economically, educationally, geographically and ideologically diverse world with the best news ever are drawn directly from his own work as an evangelist in today's student world. In Speaking of Jesus he shows readers how to keep their eyes open for "divine appointments," how to approach others with a servant spirit, how to cross relational barriers, how to simply tell one's own story of faith, and how to answer questions with honesty and confidence. Speaking of Jesus may well be an Out of the Saltshaker for the 1990s and beyond. With contagious enthusiasm, Stiles stresses that evangelism isn't about exhibiting superhuman courage or perfecting specialized techniques or exercising extraordinary gifts. Instead, he shows that people of faith can use everyday situations and everyday language to pass on the simple--and simply wonderful--news about Jesus.
Download or read book Speaking of Jesus written by Carl Medearis and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of us fear moments when we need to defend our theology. Some of us seek them out. But we are seldom ready the way Jesus seemed to be ready. So how do we draw others to God in the midst of these ordinary conversations the way Jesus did? In Speaking of Jesus, Carl Medearis draws on his experience of international reconciliation between Muslims and Christians to remind us of the heart of the matter: Jesus. Here he gives us tools, stories, and the foundation we need to move beyond “us” and “them” and simply talk about the One who changes it all. As Carl writes, “While others are explaining and defending various isms and ologies we’re simply pointing people to our friend. The one who uncovers and disarms. Who leads people right to himself. The beginning and the end of the story. A good story indeed.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paradigm-shifting book, Nancy Guthrie gently invites readers to lean in along with her to hear Jesus speak understanding and insight into the lingering questions we all have about the hurts of life: What was God’s involvement in this, and why did he let it happen? Why hasn’t God answered my prayers for a miracle? Can I expect God to protect me? Does God even care? According to Nancy, this questioning is not a bad thing at all but instead an opportunity. It’s a chance to hear with fresh ears the truth in the promises of the gospel we may have misapplied. It lets us retune our souls to the purposes of God we may have misunderstood.

Download or read book Did Jesus Speak Greek written by G. Scott Gleaves and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did Jesus speak Greek? An affirmative answer to the question will no doubt challenge traditional presuppositions. The question relates directly to the historical preservation of Jesus's words and theology. Traditionally, the authenticity of Jesus's teaching has been linked to the recovery of the original Aramaic that presumably underlies the Gospels. The Aramaic Hypothesis infers that the Gospels represent theological expansions, religious propaganda, or blatant distortions of Jesus's teachings. Consequently, uncovering the original Aramaic of Jesus's teachings will separate the historical Jesus from the mythical personality. G. Scott Gleaves, in Did Jesus Speak Greek?, contends that the Aramaic Hypothesis is inadequate as an exclusive criterion of historical Jesus studies and does not aptly take into consideration the multilingual culture of first-century Palestine. Evidence from archaeological, literary, and biblical data demonstrates Greek linguistic dominance in Roman Palestine during the first century CE. Such preponderance of evidence leads not only to the conclusion that Jesus and his disciples spoke Greek but also to the recognition that the Greek New Testament generally and the Gospel of Matthew in particular were original compositions and not translations of underlying Aramaic sources.

Download or read book Jesus Wasn t Talking to You written by Terence D. McLean and published by . This book was released on 2011-10-10 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What would Jesus do?" is the wrong question. Following in Christ's footprints is the wrong way to go. This booklet explains that when Christ spoke in those red letters in the Bible, His audience was not us but rather Kingdom Israel. It was not until well after the Cross that Christ appeared to Paul and instructed Paul to write the books that speak to today's Christian. By pretending to "live like Jesus" and observe what He said in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John Christianity finds itself living a lie because it has failed to rightly divide the word of truth. Written with a light, even deft touch, this booklet can help the reader see the importance of being Pauline in doctrine, mid-Acts dispensational in understanding, and at peace with God... maybe for the first time. Rather than making excuses for God, rather than being "God's spin doctor," rather than getting discouraged and giving up, learning to be Pauline restores faith and the ability to believe the Bible as it stands.
Download or read book When God Talks Back written by T.M. Luhrmann and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

Jesus lived what he taught, and he taught from a higher consciousness, one free of ego. Jesus was an example of what we all can be, a model of what is possible for every human being, and the messages in this book show us how we can become more Christ-like and live as he did. These messages are also intended to give you the experience of having a relationship with Jesus, as he speaks to you as if you were sitting in his presence.The channeled messages from Jesus, which this book is based on, were part of weekly online video meetings, where Gina Lake and her husband, who is also a nondual spiritual teacher, give what they call Christ Consciousness energy transmissions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where do we get food to nourish our souls? Gods living word, the Holy Bible is our daily bread. If we want to be spiritually healthy, we should read and soak up his words. They are His living words and also provide us protection. As we read and put on His whole armor before heading out each day--we armor up, helping to keep us spiritually prepared for whatever the day holds. Has God ever put something on your heart, something that you know you should be doing? For me, although I'm finished with this devotional, this is the beginning of my new life's journey of letting his words in verses and text from the bible pour into my spirit. There is really something to the power found within his words. I have experienced a new peace in my life, so thankful am I for this journey. Spending time with the Lord and reading through verses and writing each day has made a difference in my life and I can say, I'm better for it. I hope whoever you are, if this finds its way to you, it will help create in you a thirst for our Father, our Savior, our Lord, Jesus Christ. And I pray whenever he speaks, whatever he speaks to your heart that you would be able to hear his words with clarity and walk on his paths of truth for your life. Every good and perfect gift comes from the Lord.
