It begins with a brief biography of Timothy, based upon Acts and other biblical texts that describe him. This study is essential for effectiveness in the way you follow and serve Jesus Christ.

Download or read book Refusing to Wait for Heaven written by Steve Baney, M. Div. and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do I have to wait for heaven to receive blessings from Jesus? What if my life needs blessings right now? What did Jesus mean when he said he makes all things new? What if I refuse to wait? This book will change your entire perspective on life, salvation, and heaven. We need newness. Find it through this study of God's Word. This is salvation. This is good news. This is what it means to be made all new. Too many religious leaders and church members have offered little more than new information. What people crave has much less to do with information and much more to do with transformation. What difference does it make? People who are frustrated with their life situation - hurt by wounds, and mourning loss - are craving something new. They're craving change, not information. The information about finding mercy in Jesus Christ is good news for me. But it's incomplete. I also want my life to be new. This is why I've decided that I'm Refusing to Wait for Heaven. Includes reflection questions.

Download or read book Worship Devotions written by Matt Lockwood and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you lead or pastor a worship team, or you're involved in one either as a singer, musician or in tech support, then this collection of thoughts, devotions and articles is written just for you. When Matt took over as worship pastor of a growing multi-congregation church on the South coast of the UK, he established a new vision for the team - to carry God's presence to His people, and to carry God's people into His presence, through character and creativity. Having a vision is one thing, it's another thing for people to actually understand it and run with it. So Matt used the weekly team emails to share a thought about how that vision could be worked out within the service and ministry of the team, writing about heart attitude, leadership, serving, character, responsibilities and expectations, practical issues, and much more. This book is the collection of all of those thoughts, plus many other articles that Matt has written for his team and church (Family Church, Portsmouth) and for his blog at worshipteam101.com. These inspiring and thought-provoking devotions are based not on style or denominational method but on the Word of God, and are drawn from over twenty-five years experience of leading worship and leading worship teams.
