Download or read book Called to Worship written by Professor of Human Geography and Director Institute of Geography and Earth Sciences Martin Jones, Dr and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is both an honour and a privilege to be called to lead others in worship of God but so often this call is accompanied by feelings of inadequacy, self-doubt, and even fear. This handbook deals honestly with these issues and reflects on some Biblical characters who had similar reservations when they received God's call to service. It's a book for worshippers and for those who lead worship. It seeks to offer some practical advice and guidance to both worship leaders and worship teams to help and encourage in areas such as: planning and leading the worship time; facilitating Spirit-led worship that flows; recognising hindrances to worshipping freely; knowing what, when and if you should speak during the worship time; leading worship in small groups; rehearsals. Above all I hope that it will help release you into greater depths of freedom and intimacy, and better equip those of you who lead others in worship as you respond to God's call and invitation to worship Him in Spirit and in truth.

Download or read book Small Group Leader s Quick Guide to Almost Everything written by Syler Thomas and published by Group Publishing, Inc. . This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of youth ministry is “real” transformation. But “polite” youth ministry—when teenagers show up, say nice things to each other, yet never get real with one another—is not how transformational discipleship happens. Authors Tighe and Thomas believe leading young people into an intimate, abiding relationship with Jesus is the most important investment small-group leaders can make in life. And they truly believe that anyone who cares for teenagers can do it! Real ministry happens when volunteers/small-group leaders are equipped and empowered to reach and develop relationships that make a difference in the lives of the teenagers. But so many don’t feel like they really know how. Small-Group Leader’s Quick Guide to (Almost) Everything gives your volunteers the practical training they need in the bite-size format they’ll appreciate. This book is like a satisfying “protein bar” for youth ministry volunteers. It’s made for busy people who want to make a big difference in the lives of teenagers. Here’s some of what you’ll find packed into this quick guide: • Why relationships are EVERYTHING in youth ministry, and how to pour fuel on that fire • How to “decode” teenagers’ behavior in the moment and respond in a meaningful way • Why experiencing a relationship with Jesus matters more than just knowing facts • How to help hurting teenagers • How to set healthy boundaries for you and the teenagers • And so much more! If you’re a volunteer youth worker who cares for teenagers, you don’t have to be “cool” or wear skinny jeans or have a theological degree. You just need to have a desire to be present in the lives of students and feel equipped to respond. This book helps you do that...
