Book excerpt: How many times have you heard a sermon and walked away wanting more? How many times have you preached a message and wished you could have gone deeper into the text without leaving your audience scratching their heads? In Preaching for Bodybuilding, Joel Breidenbaugh, senior pastor and professor of homiletics, shows how the most faithful preaching begins by developing the preacher, who then proclaims God's message to listeners and helps them build their spiritual bodies into the image of Christ. Just as successful bodybuilders use workouts and planning, successful preachers must study and practice. Breidenbaugh traces doctrinal preaching and exposition through history, provides definitional clarity, surveys biblical examples, offers theological aids, shares practical advice and sample sermons, and reveals the beneficial elements of preparing and delivering doctrinal expository preaching, which can, and should, address the contemporary world while remaining rooted in theology. Recent studies reveal many evangelicals are biblically illiterate and theologically ignorant, which has inevitably been passed down by those occupying the pulpit. Preaching for Bodybuilding shows preachers how to integrate the two disciplines of theology and exposition and return to the Scriptures and its models, strengthening their preaching and helping the spiritual bodies of their audience grow. So, are you ready for a workout?

Book excerpt: The research for this extensive, two volume project... represents a comprehensive effort to establish a complete context from which the sport of bodybuilding arose. "Muscle, Smoke & Mirrors" is the rise and fall of what was truly once an extraordinary discipline associated with a term known as "Physical Culture". Experience what bodybuilding was originally and learn just exactly what "Physical Culture" really is. See what growing philanthropic power flexed its financial and political muscles to foster its corporate agenda, compromising human health internationally. Read how the merger of technology and politics culminated in the industrialization, commercialization, federalization, internationalization and finally the STERILIZATION of a nation's food supply, rendering it suspect not only to the general public; but also to the most elite of athletes. Whether you are a novice, an elite bodybuilder or simply sports-nutrition minded, learn how the emerging forces of the Iron Game evolved. Ultimately, the factions of this industry would grow powerful and manipulative while fighting for control over the Game. It took the running of several parallel histories on bodybuilding, nutrition, supplements and the role of drugs to offer a complete, first-time unraveling of the web of confusion and politics that still permeates the sport into the 21st century! Volume I of "Muscle, Smoke & Mirrors" is truly the untold stories surrounding "Bodybuilding's Amazing Nutritional Origins."

Download or read book Habits of Grace written by David Mathis and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian life is built on three seemingly unremarkable practices: reading the Bible, prayer, and fellowship with other believers. However, according to David Mathis, such “habits of grace” are the God-designed channels through which his glorious grace flows—making them life-giving practices for all Christians. Whether it’s hearing God’s voice (the Word), having his ear (prayer), or participating in his body (fellowship), such spiritual rhythms of the Christian life have the power to awaken our souls to God’s glory and stir our hearts for lifelong service in his name. What’s more, these seemingly simple practices grant us access to a host of spiritual blessings that we can only begin to imagine this side of eternity—and the incredible joy that such blessings bring to God’s children today.
Download or read book Reverberating Word written by Michael Denham and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like sounds of beautiful music, worship can renew us for God’s glory and our good by the invigorating power of God’s reverberating Word. It is God’s story that redeems all our stories. We want to tell it again and again as best we can, clearly conveying its message, meaning, richness, claim, and call. Through its every facet and component, worship that is biblically expositional can heighten how we proclaim God’s story, faithfully and creatively pointing to the One who alone offers us true identity, security, and destiny. “If you seek me you will find me, if you search with all your heart,” declares the Lord. With the ancient prophets and apostles we must repeat and repeat and repeat the most wonderful truth that God wants to be found. In Christian worship such tremendous and tender encounter is available to us as nowhere else.
