Download or read book The Joy of Fellowship written by Edward J. Jones and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unfortunately, man's nature complicates things, and we often cheat ourselves out of great joy by doing "our own thing." How sad. There is no doubt God's plan for man includes man's happiness. God teaches us joyful living in at least two places. Biblically it is called "walking in fellowship." This First Epistle of John focuses on "fellowship." A verse-by-verse expository of that valuable material is extremely helpful. Also, the Old Testament prophet Enoch was given to us as a role model. God reduced his life of several years into three short phrases: "He walked with God. He pleased God. He was translated to heaven." God showed his pleasure with his "walk" by taking him up to heaven without his seeing death. Skimming along the surface, modern man has developed a superficial lifestyle. You will see the joy of living a life of "fellowship with God" on God's terms.

Download or read book Maximum Joy written by David R Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MAXIMUM JOY Anyone who has raised a child understands the difference between relationship and fellowship. A parent has a permanent relationship with his/her child. But fellowship with a child means the parent and the child are enjoying their relationship. And though their relationship is eternal, their fellowship is not. A father and his son have a permanent relationship, but unless they spend time together sharing with one another, they will not have much fellowship. The apostle John wrote one book about how to have an eternal relationship with God the Gospel of John (John 20:31). And he wrote another book about how to enjoy that relationship, or how to have fellowship with God First John (1 John 1:3-4). Dr. Anderson explains that First John is not about whether one has an eternal relationship with God, but it is about how to enjoy that relationship by having fellowship with God. And enjoying fellowship with God is what Dr. Anderson calls MAXIMUM JOY.

It is an invitation to a fresh identity in the family of God, the life we value above everything in this world. If you want to be a worker in this harvest, be blessed by his wisdom and testimony."- Heidi G. Baker, Ph.D. Co-founder and Executive Chairman of the Board, Iris Global"The joy of knowing Jesus and the privilege that we have to share the good news with others at times is breathtaking. "Discovering the Joy" by Andrew Chalmers will point you to the source of all true Joy and that is Jesus. There are very few equipping evangelists like Andrew Chalmers that not only desire to see the lost saved but also desire for the church to enter into the joy of knowing Jesus and making Him known to this generation. When we only have one life to live, we live in such a way that makes sense in the light of eternity. I can get behind this book because it reflects the heart of God for us and for those that don't know Him yet. My encouragement to you is that this book will become a tool for you to learn from, put into practice what you have learnt so that you can teach others as well. May God bless you."- Chris Overstreet Founder, Compassion to Action"Discover the Joy" is an open door, beckoning you to step into more of the abundant life for which you were created.
