Download or read book Take the Flag written by Rob Fuquay and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spiritual life is often compared to a race. Pastor Rob Fuquay sees a parallel between the flags used in auto racing and the signals God sends us in our fast-paced lives. The purpose of Take the Flag is not to turn readers into race fans but to help them become stronger disciples of Jesus Christ by paying attention to the signals God gives us each day. In this Bible-based, 7-week churchwide series, Fuquay uses the flags from auto racing as a way to discuss different aspects of our life of faith: Green flag (start): How do we start our journey of faith? Yellow flag (caution): The decisions we make can sometimes put us in danger. How do we learn to heed God's caution? Red flag (delay): Finishing well involves pit stops. How does God help us get the most out of these breaks? Blue flag (yield): Each of us may run our own race, but we also need to respect others. How does God help us focus on others' needs? Black flag (disqualification): What happens when our own violations take us out of the race, and how does God help us get back in? White flag (final lap): As we head toward the finish line, how do we steer according to God's will? Checkered flag (victory): If we persevere—navigating the hazards, managing the pit stops—then victory is ours. But how does God want us to experience victory? This book and its companion DVD will captivate your entire congregation and engage them in an exciting adventure of spiritual growth.

Download or read book God and Race written by John Siebeling and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-01-18 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A White pastor and a Black pastor, close friends who have each built racially diverse congregations, offer a model Christians can follow to open necessary conversations about race, encourage unity, and foster mutual respect to heal a wounded nation riven by racial tension and political tribalism. For years, Pastors John Siebeling and Wayne Francis have led thriving congregations that are the embodiment of diversity; Siebeling in Memphis and Francis in New York City. Many churches and leaders have sought their counsel, hoping to emulate their success. At the height of the Black Lives Matter protests in Summer 2020, they pooled their insights and experiences to help others facilitate conversations about racism. The guide they developed is the basis of God and Race. Siebeling and Francis examine the White-Black tension from both perspectives and answer all the uncomfortable questions we’re afraid to ask—regarding ourselves, our families, our work and relationships, and the church. Most important, they provide practical steps anyone can take to become part of the solution. Whether you are a church leader or just a caring person who wants to make a difference, God and Race provides inspiration and guidance to help you become an agent of reconciliation and change. These two wise pastors teach you how to find your voice and join Jesus in healing, to help bring our divided communities together with open minds, open hearts, and open hands. Many Christian books on race either do not ask the hard questions or, if they do, speak as critics outside the mainstream church. Siebeling and Francis probe the meaning of racial reconciliation and reveal how the church can be a positive and effective leader to move us forward, beyond hate and injustice, to equality and love.
