Download or read book Joshua Called to Lead written by Dr. Boyd O. Gray and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-08-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joshua Called to Lead: Pursuing Exemplary Leadership demonstrates how leaders faithful in their missions to follow God rest their leadership upon obedience to God and trust in His promises. By exploring how secular leadership goes awry in basing itself upon limited human knowledge, Boyd O. Gray, a retired minister with thirty years of experience, shows how such leadership ends in failure rather than in Gods peace and prosperity. Taken together, these guides to the pitfalls and possibilities a leader faces reveal how to imitate Joshuas example by pursuing exemplary and faithful paths of leadership. Arranged as a passage-by-passage reflection on the biblical text, Joshua Called to Lead draws from several translations, choosing in each instance the one illuminating the leadership-oriented message the passage contains. The commentary also connects the Old Testament account and the Christian life: Joshua may have doubted Gods intent at first, but He still went before Him in humility and repentance. In repentance, God gave him the answer he was looking for. The child of Gods can always find the will and purpose of God through repentance and prayer. Joshua Called to Lead: Pursuing Exemplary Leadership speaks to all who desire to learn about the biblical figure of Joshua, who seek deeper understandings of his faithful leadership, or who crave a model for shaping ones own efforts to lead. If you belong to any of those groups, then Joshua Called to Lead will guide your own journey to appreciate and to pursue exemplary and faithful leadership.

Download or read book Archaeology of the Land of the Bible written by Amihai Mazar and published by James Clarke Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israeli archaeologist Amihai Mazar introduces the achievements of the dynamic archaeological research in Israel and Jordan and discusses its implications for our knowledge of the world of the Old Testament. The volume covers the period starting with the first permanent settlements around 10,000 B.C.E., and ends with the destruction of the First Temple by Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C.E. and the Babylonian domination of the country. Each of the archaeological periods is presented against its historical and biblical background. Various aspects of the material culture of each period are discussed: the distribution of settlements, the discoveries in the main sites, aspects of civil and religious architecture, pottery making, metallurgy, agriculture, crafts and arts, weapons, jewelry, ritual objects, writing, burial customs, and evidence for trade and cultural relations with neighbouring countries. All these subjects are briefly introduced to create the jigsaw puzzle out of which archaeologists reconstruct the cultural history of the country. The relationship between the archaeological evidence and biblical history is discussed in all relevant chapters. Step-by-step, era-by-era, Amihai Mazar shows just what each archaeological age has to teach the modern reader about the past.The book is illustrated with hundreds of line drawings, maps, photographs, and charts. Bibliographic references provide access to the most recent publications on each of the issues under discussion. This introductory synthesis was written for students and scholars, as well as for those readers interested in expanding their knowledge of the Bible and its world.
Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Book excerpt: The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God's Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) "Gospel Glimpses" highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) "Whole-Bible Connections" show how any given passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) "Theological Soundings" identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God's grace on every page of the Bible. At God's command and under Joshua's leadership, the nation of Israel invaded the land of Canaan—the land God had promised his people. Thus, the book of Joshua records a key period in God's plan to redeem his people from slavery in Egypt. Connecting the story of Joshua to God's larger promises, pastor Trent Hunter offers readers rich insights into the book's overarching story of salvation and the ultimate rest offered to all who trust in Christ for salvation—helping them apply its message to their lives today.
