Download or read book The Gift of Administration written by Donald P. Senior and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2015-12-28 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his First Letter to the Corinthians Paul cites “administrators” as one of God’s gifts to the Christian community (1 Cor 12:28). But many who serve in administrative service today have difficulty seeing how their everyday work is an expression of discipleship. This book, written by an experienced administrator and noted biblical scholar, shows how the various functions of institutional administration are deeply rooted in the Scriptures and are a genuine expression of our call to discipleship. Leadership, mission statements and planning, finances and fund raising, personnel issues, communications, and public relations—all of these seemingly “secular” activities serve to build up the Body of Christ and deserve to be recognized as authentic Christian ministry. To see administrative service as a biblically rooted gift can help those involved in this way of life to find deeper and more satisfying spiritual meaning in what they do.

Download or read book The Gift of Psalms written by Christina Traylor and published by . This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: May you discover your own gift on this journey and even awaken to sing your own psalm. The Gift of Psalms is a collection of poems, artistic drawings, and inspirational photos given as testaments to the Almighty. It is a gift of love to those who find themselves alone and in pain, confusion, and even despair. "After going through an agonizing divorce and leaving my lifelong religious beliefs, I found I really knew nothing of who I was or who I should be. In my frustration, I prayed fervently, and in the depths of that quiet moment, I heard a faint, soft voice calling me to the woods, away from everyone and everything. It was there that I finally came upon a path of such inspiring moments, thoughts, and the souls of sweet spirits sharing with me their wisdom and grace, that I began my journey to find myself." ---Christina Traylor "May you, dear reader, find these jewels of inspiration casting a guiding light. You, who may be walking the same path as I, or who may be finding yourself at a crossroads in life, may you too find the connection to that which is greater." May The Gift of Psalms provide a window into the heavens, so that you might see yourself as only the heavens do.
