This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's wrong with these kids? You know the ones . . . tattooed skin, pierced body parts, sagging pants so low their undergarments show, clothing exposing lots of skin, flip-flops worn during winter, hair the color of the rainbow, and let's not forget the colorful language. Can a teacher teach these kids? The answer is a resounding yes! Believe it or not, most of them want to learn, and whether or not it is exhibited through their actions what they desire most of all is structure and discipline. This book was written not only out of my desire to share why I wanted to become a teacher but most importantly how my steps were divinely directed of the Lord. As you read through these pages, I hope you will find what I discovered. God had a plan for my life, and when I put my trust in Him, He equipped and empowered me to become all that He desired of me. What He did for me He will also do for you, as stated in Romans 2:11, "For there is no respect of persons with God."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talk the talk and walk the walk. The challenge of the Christian life is learning to talk Christian. Somebody has got to tell us, give us the words that open the door to the faith called Christian. Each of us is due the delight of discovery that in submitting to God’s talk to us. God Turned Toward Us: The ABCs of Christian Faith is organized by the words the church teaches us to use to talk about ordinary life apprehended by a God who is Jesus Christ–short, meditative reflections upon key concepts that guide Christians, new or longstanding. Praise for God Turned Towards Us “Reading God Turned Towards Us is like walking through a diamond mine. The opening segment on “Abortion” is itself worth the price of the book! Consider these gems: On the Cross: “The cross is a mirror that reflects who we really are as well as a window where we are given a privileged look into the heart of who God is.” On Sanctification: “The Gospels depict the disciples on a continual road trip. They journey, not only step-by-step closer to Jerusalem but also day-by day closer to Christ, that is, sanctification.” --Mike Lowry, Resident Bishop of the Central Texas Conference of The United Methodist Church God Turned Toward Us: The ABCs of Christian Faith is no ordinary book about Christian beliefs and practices. Rather, it is a sometimes jarring, always interesting, consistently insightful, and persistently provocative invitation to “talk the talk and walk the walk” of Christian discipleship. Addressing topics from A (Abortion) to Z (Zaccheus), Bishop Willimon prods us to listen more attentively to the God who continues to speak amid the confusion and turmoil of our times. This is a valuable resource for individuals and groups who genuinely want to hear a word from the Lord. --Kenneth Carder, Retired Bishop of The United Methodist Church

While discussing in depth common related concerns (missional apathy, biblical illiteracy in the church, shallow discussions, etc.), author and teacher Trevin Wax duly offers a practical guide to making sure your message is always surely centered on Jesus and what He has done: "Fellow teachers, let's soak ourselves in the truths of the gospel and the Word.

Download or read book The Abc s of Christian Growth written by Dr. Gloria J. Lewis and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the New Birth comes growth. If there is no growth, there is no life. To be in Christ means to be saved, converted, regenerated, sanctified, and continually growing in grace and knowledge. Christian growth is learning what God wants through his Word; doing what God wants; and living our lives through his love. The evidence of growth in grace and knowledge can be found in (1) an increase in love; (2) an increase in faith (3) an increase in respect for God's Word; and (4) an increase of the fruit of the Spirit. God wants us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior. But how can we who are in Christ grow in a suitable and wholesome manner? In the ABC's of Christian Growth you will find guidelines for growth in the Christian's life. We will explore from A to Z some basic principles to embrace in the day to day walk with the Lord. When these ideologies are applied to the life of the believer, growth is inevitable.
Download or read book Engaging God s World written by Cornelius Plantinga and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2002-02-07 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible admonishes Christians to love God with the mind as well as with the heart. Engaging God's World clearly links this scriptural mandate with the pursuit of academic life, extolling the crucial role of Christian higher education in the intellectual and spiritual formation of believers. Chiefly intended to serve as a primer for students beginning college careers but valuable to thoughtful Christians at every stage of life, this volume spells out the central themes of the Christian faith from a Reformed perspective. More important, however, the book shows how Christian higher education fits inside a view of the world and of human life that is formed by these ideas. "Learning," Cornelius Plantinga writes, "is a spiritual calling; properly done, it attaches us to God." Approaching the topic of education from a variety of angles, Plantinga shows that Christ-centered learning teaches people to correctly see the world as God's creation, to see providence in history, to handle secular knowledge critically, to develop good judgment and, ultimately, to use faith-filled learning in the service of God's kingdom.
Download or read book THE ABC s OF GOD Answering Those What Is God Like Questions With Your Children written by Eric M. West and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2023-04-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have three grandchildren, all boys, with the third one, Jameson, soon to be born in September, God willing. I had developed a bond with my two oldest, Jackson and Jetson Harris, and was intentional about influencing them with the love of Jesus Christ. I wanted to create precious memories for them, like I tried to do with their mom and uncle. I took them outside to look for pine cones, looking for cicadas, running around in the grass, throwing balls around. Or sitting on the couch watching Veggie Tales and Paw Patrol, giving them TIME with Papa. But most importantly, I made time to introduce to them, who God is as their Creator, and their Savior Jesus Christ. I know the importance of it, to plant those seeds in them while their young. My gang life ended with me being suicidal, and God brought to my mind a memory of God's word, the holy bible, that literally saved my life. When I had lost all hope and meaning in my life, God saw fit to reveal Himself through the memory of His word. This was my driving force to writing this book. So when my daughter decided to move to Arkansas, I wanted to maintain that influence. I bought a notebook, and God gave me an idea to do a devotional for my grandsons, and have my daughter read it to them. I ended up mailing it to her. She called and said, "Dad, I love it! You should make it available to other kids to. I prayed about it, and the result is, The ABC's of God. I hope it blesses you and your family as well. God be with you. My name is Eric M. West, born in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. I moved to Watts, California in 1973. I accepted Jesus Christ as an eight year old, but when I was eleven, the pressures of inner-city project life led me to join the Grape St. Watts Crip gang at age twelve. Eight years later God chose to rescue me from that violent world, where I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. A year later I enrolled in World Impact's Christian Leadership Training Center in Florence, Kansas, and graduated in 1988. I spent two years on their staff in Wichita, Kansas, working with kids and families. I married my wife Andrea in 1991, a math teacher, and we have two young adult children together, Ashley & Isaiah. I have three grandsons, Jackson, Jetson, and Jameson. I work in Maintenance at Central Christian Church in Wichita, for twenty-three years. I'm the author of From Crip To Christ: Change From The Inside Out, and I've been featured on Pacific Garden Mission's radio theatre program, UNSHACKLED.

Download or read book Biblical ABCs written by and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblical ABCs is a theological resistance primer. Its author, Kornelis Heiko Miskotte, was a Dutch pastor, theologian, and antifascist who lived and worked under the Nazi occupation of his country. Miskotte’s family hid Jews inside their home, and Miskotte facilitated underground Christian discussion groups. In 1941, he published an illegal pamphlet as a study guide for these groups. In an atmosphere saturated with propaganda and lies, Miskotte felt that Christians needed a refresher course in the basics of biblical language—an anti-Nazi catechism, as it were. Miskotte presents this instruction in twelve brief, poetic meditations on important terms drawn from the Bible. Like his teacher Karl Barth, Miskotte insists on the primacy of the Word, and like his imprisoned colleague Dietrich Bonhoeffer, he emphasizes the this-worldliness of the Old Testament. Miskotte also shows his deep debt to the Jewish theologian, Franz Rosenzweig. He begins his primer with the A of the biblical ABCs: the Name of God, the Tetragrammaton, which Miskotte sees as the cornerstone of all resistance to authoritarianism and truth decay.
