Download or read book Jimmie Moore of Bucktown and The Double Cure written by Melvin E. Trotter and published by Solid Christian Books. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In presenting the first edition of Jimmie Moore to the public, neither author nor publisher considered it necessary to offer a preface, but the book has excited so much interest and there have been so many inquiries as to whether it is truth or fiction, it is considered advisable to state that it is a true story and that all the characters here represented, though six years ago considered hopeless outcasts, are to-day prosperous, happy, contented citizens of Grand Rapids and are living, breathing examples of the transforming power of Jesus Christ, with the glad story of Redemption on their lips every day. The transformation of Bucktown is civic history and the work in that locality has spread to every other locality in this city. Districts that were given over to drunkenness and fights and that were dependent upon benevolent organizations for existence are to-day self-supporting. Surely the day of miracles is not past. Melvin E. Trotter. City Rescue Mission, Grand Rapids, Mich. December 15, 1904.

Download or read book The Cure for Common Christianity written by Tommy Galloway and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus stated that with faith in Him we would accomplish greater things than He. Jesus saved the lost, healed the sick, ministered to the multitudes, and raised the dead. Accordingly, the modern church should be doing much more. So what's the problem? Why do we fall short of our Savior's standard? Quite bluntly, Christianity has caught a chronic case of apathy! In The Cure for Common Christianity, using a command of theology and a unique, witty writing style, Pastor Tommy Galloway outlines the formula to alleviate this Church crisis. The problems are complex and the symptoms are multi-faceted; the cure is simple-a full-fledged return to the basics of Christianity. The world is disillusioned by the corruption and complacency plaguing our houses of worship. Christians cannot waste time. A spiritually sick world is waiting for a healthy Church to offer hope. They are waiting for - The Cure for Common Christianity. Pastor Tommy Galloway began his ministry at age sixteen. Upon completion of high school in Calhoun City, Mississippi, he attended Jackson College of Ministries and received a degree in Theology. He served as Youth Pastor in Longview, Texas, before beginning evangelistic work throughout the United States. In 1984, he married Candace Greene. They continued evangelistic work until 1988, when they were elected pastors of Powell's Grove Pentecostal Church in Jayess, Mississippi. After pastoring there for six years, they moved to Tupelo, Mississippi, in 1994, to begin evangelistic work again. In 1996, they founded Word of Life Church where they still serve as Senior Pastors. Pastor Tommy's vision is, "Lead Locally, Reach Regionally, and Grow Globally." Although pastoring the phenomenal people of Word of Life Church is his first calling, he still ministers at evangelistic crusades throughout America and other countries. Tommy and Candi have three children, Landon, Kristian, and Alexis.

Download or read book The Cure written by J. L. and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith, its a word that describes a belief in something that you cant truly know exists. Faith is someone standing in front of a closet telling you that there is gold inside and that you will get that gold at some point if you can just trust that it is there. Whats to stop you from looking in the closet? So many people believe that there is gold in the closet, so maybe you should too. The feeling of the possibility of getting the gold is so intense, it is just enough to make it so you dont try and peek inside the closet. The funny thing about faith is that without numbers, it wouldnt exist. Yet, your faith belongs to you; you own it in the most complete sense. It is you that owns this faith and it is you that decides what to make of it. People get mad when something makes them question their faith, yet the only one that can question your faith is you. No man, woman, movie or book can influence the decision you have to keep or discard your faith. In the end, you are the one who decides the direction of your life. This book provides a peak into the closet. It gives you the choice to either believe that you do see the gold, or to believe that there is no gold. What you decide to see and believe is ultimately up to you. This book will help you understand why there is no gold, but instead a much more magical entity. The closet in reality isnt a box but is an unending future.

Download or read book Can Christianity Cure Obsessive Compulsive Disorder written by Ian Osborn and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a relentless condition, the primary symptom being the occurrence of terrifying ideas, images, and urges that jump into a person's mind and return again and again, despite the individual's attempt to remove them. Christians who suffer from OCD may grapple with additional guilt, as the undesired thoughts are frequently of a spiritual nature. Yet people may be surprised to learn that some of the greatest leaders in Christian history also struggled with this malady. What did they experience? How did they cope? Were they able to overcome these tormenting, often violent, obsessions? Where did God fit into the picture? Ian Osborn shares the personal accounts of Martin Luther, John Bunyan, and Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, as well as his own story, in exploring how faith and science work together to address this complex issue.

This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the theology of mission developed by John Wesley, thousands of men and women have engaged in domestic and international missions. But why did they go? Why do they continue to go today? In The Use of the Old Testament in a Wesleyan Theologyof Mission, Gordon Snider examines the Wesleyan understanding of mission in the light of the Old Testament. What theology from God's Old Covenant gave Wesleyans their drive to impact nations, and how did it shape their missionary strategies? Drawing upon a range of primary sources, he examines how a number of influential speakers in the Wesleyan tradition, particularly the founders and spokespeople of the nineteenth and the early twentieth century, have used the Old Testament to inform theirtheology of mission. Snider provides an insight into the works of the important theologians Thomas Coke, Jabez Bunting, Adam Clarke, Richard Watson, Daniel Whedon and Edmund Cook. Focusing on the movement of Wesleyan Theology from Great Britain to North America, Snider analyses how this affected Wesleyan ideas of holiness, eschatology and divine healing. Readers of this volume will discover why Wesleyan Christians go into the world and gain a deeper understanding of missions.

Download or read book Saved by Grace written by Jack Cottrell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part One of this book is a series of ten lessons I call "Grace Distinctions." This description comes from my 60 years of studying and teaching theology, during which I have come to think of theology as "the art of making distinctions." I have especially found that a proper understanding of grace requires making some very important distinctions. When I was teaching grace in the seminary, I came to the point where my beginning lectures for the course were an exposition of these distinctions. The ten lessons in the first section of this book are intended to set forth this material. Sometimes the same ideas will come up again in Part Two. The main section of this book is Part Two ("Grace Accomplished and Applied"), which is a series of 14 lessons on what it means to be "saved by grace." These lessons are presented in a simple and orderly manner that I hope can be understood by anyone: prospective Christians, new Christians, seasoned Christians. These lessons can be used for evangelistic purposes, for small group studies, for personal devotions, or for sermon ideas. (I do recommend that teachers, preachers, and group leaders using this for such purposes also use and study the larger volume "Set Free! What the Bible Says About Grace", (https://www.amazon.com/Free-What-Bible-About-Grace/dp/0899009808) using the table of contents and the indexes to find more extensive developments of the subjects given in more abbreviated form in this small book.) My goal and prayer is this: May God use this little book (through you, the reader) to reach multitudes with the message of His grace, and to lead them to a richer and deeper understanding of the "blessed assurance" of salvation.
