Download or read book Health Healing and Shalom written by Bryant L. Myers and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since Jesus’s proclamation in word and deed as the Great Physician, his followers in mission have assumed that salvation and health are intertwined. Yet for every age, Christians need to examine how they can best announce the gospel message of God’s healing in word and deed in their own context. In our era, we are often simultaneously grateful for modern medicine and frustrated by its inability to care for the whole person in effective, affordable ways. In this edited volume, authors with an interest in health missions from a wide variety of experiences and disciplines examine health and healing through the theological lens of shalom. This word, often translated “peace,” names a much more complex understanding of human well-being as right relationships with one another, with God, and with creation. Reading various aspects of healthcare missions through these glasses not only yields much-needed correctives to current practice but also exposes the Spirit’s invitation to participate in God’s ongoing work of tending, caring, and healing our broken world.
Download or read book Teach a Man to Fish written by Mph Florence Muindi MD and published by Tyndale House Publishers. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You've probably heard the old saying, "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime." The same basic principle applies to missions work. Too many churches and other missions organizations over-emphasize Relief Aid--no-strings-attached, handouts of vital supplies given in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. While necessary and lifesaving, Relief Aid is only a temporary fix. Once the funds dry up and the ground team leaves, the impoverished community is often no better off than they were before. In Teach a Man to Fish, the authors illustrate the benefits of "wholistic transformational development," where--through engagement with the local church-- the community is empowered to identify and carry out long-term sustainable solutions to meet its own needs. A few of the steps that "wholistic transformational development" includes are: Give dignity to "the least of these" Address the root causes of poverty to provide solutions for the affected Help the vulnerable to become empowered in their own communities Filled with real-life stories from the authors' own experiences, Teach a Man to Fish provides churches and missions organizations with a blueprint for helping people help themselves in order to create lasting change and long-term sustainability and independence.
Download or read book Victory Over Fear Charms Witchcraft and Worldview in South Central Malawi written by Robert Beaton and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is about effective discipleship. The author discusses how it is possible to transform worldview and thus change behaviour (practice) in the area of African traditional religious charm- dependency and related witchcraft practices in the church. He lays foundations for an appropriate approach for renewal, one which takes into consideration cultural sensitivity, Biblical fidelity and pedagogic efficacy. Specific Biblical passages are studied with a view to both theological significance and practically applicable significance for the context, and suggestions are made regarding how to best communicate these Biblical truths effectively in situ. This material provides a malleable resource for church leaders, theological educators and missionaries, to use, develop or modify, according to their own particular didactic needs and specific ATR challenges to Christian discipleship.

Download or read book Community written by Brad House and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-09-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community within the church today is hemorrhaging. Attention spans are dwindling, noise levels are increasing, and we can't seem to find time for real relationships. The answer to such social fragmentation can be found in small groups, and yet the majority of small groups—at least in the traditional sense—are often not the intentional, transformational community we really want and need. Somehow we need to get our groups off life support and into authentic community. Pastor Brad House helps us to re-imagine what gospel-centered community looks like and shares from his experience leading and reproducing healthy small groups. With wisdom and candor, House challenges us to think carefully about our own groups and to take steps toward cultivating communities that are able to glorify Jesus, bless one another, and participate in the mission of God.
