Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is said that life is what happens when you are making other plans. If so, those that gather in the middle of a potato field in a small Baptist chapel in Tenthill in rural Queensland, Australia have had a lot of life interfere with their plans. They have had to deal with whatever nature, circumstances, and the Lord himself seems to hurl at them. These are real sermons addressed to real people to address real situations. The messages touched hearts when they were preached, and you should find them refreshing and encouraging as you deal with life and your plans for the future. The subjects could not be more diverse, including drought; untimely death; the temple of Artemis in Ephesus; appointing pastors, elders, and deacons; and the author's love of colorful shirts. Yet all speak of the gospel of the love, faithfulness, and forgiveness of Jesus. There will be messages you love inside. They are different from any preaching you are used to.

Download or read book Pastor Served Al Dente written by Edgar Stubbersfield and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Edgar Stubbersfield was a much younger man, he spoke with one of his state’s leading evangelists. The evangelist shocked Edgar that night when he said, "It is the easiest thing in the world to start a new church; the hardest thing is finding it a good pastor." Edgar is now certain that the evangelist overstated the simplicity of starting a church but, in his advancing age, Edgar feared at times that he understated the difficulty in getting it a good pastor. Yet, difficult as it may be, it is not impossible. The quest for the perfect pastor will be fruitless. But a good pastor? That is an entirely different matter; they do exist but may well be a threatened species. This book is intended to set a very high yet, with God’s help, still achievable bar for anyone considering Christian ministry. However, while it is a gentle reminder to the church about what a pastor should be, this book is also a gentle reminder to the pastor of what a member should be like!

Download or read book Homestead Homilies written by Barry Blackstone and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relive through reminiscing and remembering, a Maine pastor's recollections of boyhood experiences that turned into a minister's messages in old age. After five decades (Barry's first message was preached in 1966), travel back in time with a lifelong Maineaic to his home place, the Blackstone homestead of Perham, Maine. What sparked these homilies was his inheritance of seven acres of the family farm, homesteaded in 1861, and the receiving of his grandparent's house built in 1924 at the death of his Uncle Paul. You will probably come to the same conclusion as this coastal Maine pastor--that his seminary training began long before he attended a Bible school in South Carolina in the early 1970s. Flash back with him to the 1950s and 1960s when spiritual lessons were everywhere on his rural potato and dairy farm. Pastor Blackstone didn't know it then, but realizes now that he was surrounded by family Bible teachers and friendly Biblical instructors that eventually would inspire this series of sermons. Homestead Homilies is a collection of scriptural observations inspired by a dog named Rover, an uncle named Read, a moonlit night, a barnyard hedge, a day plowing, a grandmother's helpful hand, a bee hive, a simple prayer, a sparrow's song, and many more simple events in a past age where homilies were being preached and now eventually heard. It is the author's prayer that these simple sermons will provoke the reader to remember long lost messages from their distant past.

Download or read book Displacing the Divine written by Douglas Alan Walrath and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-07 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As religious leaders, ministers are often assumed to embody the faith of the institution they represent. As cultural symbols, they reflect subtle changes in society and belief-specifically people's perception of God and the evolving role of the church. For more than forty years, Douglas Alan Walrath has tracked changing patterns of belief and church participation in American society, and his research has revealed a particularly fascinating trend: portrayals of ministers in American fiction mirror changing perceptions of the Protestant church and a Protestant God. From the novels of Harriet Beecher Stowe, who portrays ministers as faithful Calvinists, to the works of Herman Melville, who challenges Calvinism to its very core, Walrath considers a variety of fictional ministers, including Garrison Keillor's Lake Woebegon Lutherans and Gail Godwin's women clergy. He identifies a range of types: religious misfits, harsh Puritans, incorrigible scoundrels, secular businessmen, perpetrators of oppression, victims of belief, prudent believers, phony preachers, reactionaries, and social activists. He concludes with the modern legacy of nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century images of ministers, which highlights the ongoing challenges that skepticism, secularization, and science have brought to today's religious leaders and fictional counterparts. Displacing the Divine offers a novel encounter with social change, giving the reader access, through the intimacy and humanity of literature, to the evolving character of an American tradition.
