Book excerpt: According to George Barna, uncovering God's vision for your ministry is not an option. It's essential for the most productive ministry that will accomplish God's goals for building his kingdom. Ministry leaders with a clear picture from God of where they are headed are much more likely to experience a successful journey. In this book, Barna uncovers how God has shared his vision throughout history, how vision is different from mission, common practices and beliefs that inhibit true vision, practical steps toward experiencing and carrying out God's unique vision for them, and ways to share and promote congregational ownership of the vision.The Power of Vision

Download or read book The Vision of God written by K.E. Kirk and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the 1928 Bampton Lectures, The Vision of God was the first of Kenneth E. Kirk’s three major books on moral theology. Drawing inspiration from the ascetic tradition of Christianity, Kirk advocates the priority of worship in ethical thought. Beginning with the sixth beatitude, he places the visio Dei front and centre throughout, placing himself in a eudaimonistic tradition that ranges from Irenaeus to Aquinas and the Shorter Catechism. Worship, he shows, offers the opportunity to discover and acknowledge something more valuable than the self, and thus contains the key to moral instruction. Although Kirk published an expanded ‘complete edition’ of The Vision of God in 1931, he notes in the preface to the shorter text presented here that ‘what remains approximates to, though it is not quite identical with, the actual lectures as originally delivered.’ The reader therefore has in their hands the essence of Kirk’s thesis, which continues to prompt debate today.

Download or read book God s Vision written by Karen R. Levine and published by Aspect Books. This book was released on 2017-06 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In God's Vision, author K.R. Levine's life takes her from the comfort of her childhood home in Jamaica with her loving, pious, grandmother, and religious aunt to a journey across the sea. America's promise was darkened by a failing marriage, and an unhappy home. An emergency C-section suddenly left her fighting for her life with a mysterious illness that confounded her doctors. It was during this dark period, in the hospital, that she received a vision from God. She wrote this book to share this vision-hoping that the faith of the believer would be strengthened. She is hoping that the non-believer will discover that God is a living, awesome, loving being. He loves us more than we can ever imagine. She acknowledges the spiritual faithfulness and Biblical institutions of her grandmother and aunt which helped shaped her life. An early relationship with God enabled a reliance on "faith" while learning what was happening in the hospital. She identified with the struggles of Biblical characters like Jonah, Samuel, Joseph and especially the woman who clung to Jesus' garment, hoping that she would be healed. These characters had one thing in common "faith": In exercising their "faith"; their lives were forever changed. In the middle of the night she was blessed under the Navel orange tree; she believes God's anointing will enable her to reach millions with his message of hope. This book is dedicated to that purpose.

Download or read book Living in God s Vision written by Victor Koduah Nyanor and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You see, brothers and sisters, in this God and human relationship you can get the best result only when God speaks and the human, male or female, young or old will yield, obey and take a step with the spoken Word. The result will all the time be the best. God gets the glory, the instrument leaves behind a legacy for the next generation, letting the next generation know how a loving interrelationship between God and human can always have the best result. When I say God speaks, His voice can be heard through different mediums, for example; the Bible does speak to us, hearing a person who has obeyed the LORD and taking a step with what he or she heard does speak to us, anointed preaching does speak to us, through worship God does speak to us. However, what language does God speak? Is it any special language with a special grammar that we should try to specialize to hear? NO. Nevertheless, we have heard people of different nations and language hearing the voice of God and attempting great things for Him and getting results that only God can create. The language of God is an inspiration to a believing heart to increase faith in the heart toward God. When a believing heart hears an inspiration and increase in faith and takes a purposeful step with what he or she hears, we know God has spoken to such a person.”

Download or read book A God Sized Vision written by Collin Hansen and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can God stir revival by his Holy Spirit, even in our culture today? Do we really believe he can? In a day of diminished expectations, A God-Sized Vision: Revival Accounts That Stretch and Stir recounts global examples of prior revivals, beginning with the Reformation and the Great Awakenings. It continues with the Welsh and Azusa Street revivals and those that occurred simultaneously in Asia, followed by the East Africa Revival of the 1930s. More recent revivals in North America that instigated parachurch or evangelistic ministries like those of Billy Graham and the revivals in China, particularly in Henan Province over the last forty years, give further evidence of church renewal. These stories enlarge our hearts, expand our minds, and empower our witness to the power of God at work in human history. Christians with a deep evangelistic commitment who realize that there is more to church growth than field-tested techniques will expand their vision by remembering God’s vision, as it has been revealed throughout history. Hansen and Woodbridge mine these stories of renewal to suggest how to get ready for revival today.

Download or read book Cross Vision written by Gregory A. Boyd and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned pastor-theologian Gregory A. Boyd tackles the BibleÕs biggest dilemma. Ê The Old Testament God of wrath and violence versus the New Testament God of love and peaceÑitÕs a difference that has troubled Christians since the first century. Now, with the sensitivity of a pastor and the intellect of a theologian, Gregory A. Boyd proposes the Òcruciform hermeneutic,Ó a way to read the Old Testament portraits of God through the lens of JesusÕ crucifixion. Ê In Cross Vision, Boyd follows up on his epic and groundbreaking study, The Crucifixion of the Warrior God. He shows how the death and resurrection of Jesus reframes the troubling violence of the Old Testament, how all of Scripture reveals GodÕs self-sacrificial love, and, most importantly, how we can follow JesusÕ example of peace.
