Book excerpt: A Concise Summary of Biblical Truth by John MacArthur Doctrine not only equips you with more knowledge about God, it also shapes your affections toward him and directs your actions for him—but it can be difficult to know where to begin. This concise handbook, developed from John MacArthur's larger work Biblical Doctrine, is an entry point for studying theological topics such as the Bible, the Holy Spirit, the church, and more. As MacArthur walks through the essentials of the Christian faith doctrine by doctrine, he'll not only encourage your heart and mind, but also empower you to proclaim the faith that was "once for all delivered to the saints" (Jude 3).

Download or read book The Doctrines of Grace written by James Montgomery Boice and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no question that we live in an age of weak theology and casual Christianity. We have substituted intuition for truth, feeling for belief and immediate gratification for enduring hope. Evangelicalism desperately needs to return to the doctrines that once before reformed the world: radical depravity, unconditional election, particular redemption, efficacious grace and persevering grace. James Boice and Philip Ryken not only provide a compelling exposition on these doctrines of grace, but also look briefly at their historical impact. The authors leave no doubt that the church suffers when these foundational truths are neglected and that she must return to a Christianity that is practical-minded, kind-hearted, and most importantly, biblically based.

Download or read book Gospel Centered Kids Ministry written by Brian Dembowczyk and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Jesus interacting with the Emmaus disciples after his resurrection provides an outline for what a gospel-centered kids ministry looks like: gospel-centered teaching that points to Jesus in every session, gospel-centered transformation that positions the gospel to change a child's heart and then his or her behavior, and gospel-centered mission where kids join in on the big story of Jesus that continues to unfold. Seven out of ten kids will walk away from church after they turn eighteen. About five will return when they have families of their own. But two will never return. Clearly, something isn’t connecting with our kids. As kids ministry leaders, we need to take a hard look at what we are missing in our kids ministries and provide kids the one thing that will satisfy them and keep them connected to the church—the gospel. Gospel-Centered Kids Ministry also addresses how to communicate with and encourage gospel-centered leaders and parents as part of your ministry.

Download or read book Awaiting a Savior The Gospel the New Creation and the End of Poverty written by Aaron Armstrong and published by Cruciform Press. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Where does poverty come from? What am I supposed to do about it?" These questions are driving a new generation of Christians to take action on behalf of the poor through social and political action, global partnerships, and financial generosity, as they desire to become the generation that ends poverty forever. But in pursuit of this goal, they risk losing sight of a fundamental reality: the root cause of poverty isn't found in material or external circumstances. The root cause of poverty is sin--and sin is not a problem we can solve. But Jesus can. In Awaiting a Savior, Aaron Armstrong reminds readers that even as we are responsible for pursuing biblical solutions to poverty, our hope for truly resolving it comes not from the good we do, but from the return of Christ, who will once and for all put an end to sin, suffering and death as he brings about the new creation.

Download or read book The Gospel Project God Among Us Bible Study Book written by D. A. HORTON and published by Lifeway Church Resources. This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Among Us Bible Study Book includes a small-group experience for six sessions, applicable Scripture, and individual study created for personal discipleship. As a man, Jesus--the Son of God--lived among His creation, among the works of His hands. Imagine the God of the universe walking around and talking with the people He made. What would He say? Whom would He seek? Each passage in this study teaches about discipleship through Jesus' encounters. The calling of the twelve disciples exemplifies the bedrock of discipleship, faithfully following Jesus as Savior and Lord. As Jesus taught Nicodemus, new birth comes through faith in God's son and results in transformation. The humility of John the Baptist demonstrated the joy to be found in Jesus Christ's significance and not our own. The questions and answers exchanged with the Samaritan Woman define Living Water, and the rejection of Jesus at Nazareth shows that no opposition or pain can stop Spirit-empowered ministry. Lastly, the fabled encounter between Jesus and Zacchaeus confirms that Jesus has come to seek and save the lost, which makes our hearts respond with exuberant generosity. SESSION TITLES 1. Jesus Calls the Disciples--Matthew 4:17-22; 9:9-13 2. Nicodemus and the New Birth--John 3:1-21 3. Jesus and John the Baptist--John 3:22-36 4. Jesus and the Samaritan Woman--John 4:1-42 5.
