Download or read book Christians in an Age of Wealth written by Craig L. Blomberg and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Craig Blomberg addresses the tough questions about the place and purpose of wealth and material possessions in a Christian’s life. He points to the goodness of wealth, as God originally designed it, but also surveys the Bible’s many warnings against making an idol out of money. So are material possessions a blessing for which we should long? And what are the dangers that the use or abuse of material possessions can produce? Blomberg expounds upon how the sharing of goods and possessions is the key safeguard against both greed and covetousness. He expands on the concept of giving generously, even sacrificially, to those who are needier, demonstrating how Christians can participate in God’s original good design for abundance and demonstrate the world-altering gospel of Christ. Is there any one key to keeping possessions in their proper, God-intended perspective? Are there limits on how rich we should become or on how poor we should allow others to get? What does a truly Christian economic system look like? How does the Bible’s teaching on wealth fit into the gospel?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christ's sheep need shepherding. That's where you come in. With more than 60 years of ministry between them, Harold Senkbeil and Lucas Woodford have come to understand that everything in ministry--even administration, leadership, and planning--revolves around the ancient tradition of the care of souls. Pastors are entrusted with the care of a flock by the Good Shepherd and are called to be faithful to this task. But pastoring seems to be getting more and more difficult. Based on a sound theological framework, Senkbeil and Woodford present a set of practical tools for church leadership and strategy. Calling on their vast experience, they encourage pastors to protect, guide, and feed their flock as Jesus would, bridging the eternal wisdom of the word of God with the everyday practicality of hands-on leadership. Originally published as Church Leadership & Strategy, this revision includes a new chapter and litany.

Download or read book Ask Thank Tell written by Charles R. Lane and published by Augsburg Books. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this book, says author Charles Lane, is to perform a dramatic rescue of stewardship, freeing it from any connection whatsoever to "paying the bills." When the Bible talks about stewardship it almost always talks about the intimate connection between how a person handles financial matters and that person's relationship with God. Stewardship is an intensely spiritual matter that lies close to a disciple's relationship with Jesus.The book is designed especially for use in congregational planning and study. Congregational stewardship leaders will come back to three foundational verbs ? ask, thank, tell ? over and over as they help individuals experience the joy of giving generously. The author makes the convincing case that there is little in life today that can help a disciple grow in relationship with Jesus more than a solid intentional biblical stewardship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Christian Studies in Stewardship (Revised) It is the thrilling truth that this generation is living at the dawn of a new and larger day. A new world is being born. In the past, revivals of religion have frequently accompanied world tragedies, but the aftermath is generally a letting down. To think of the stewardship revival that is now spreading over the world is to feel that God has providentially timed this movement, in order to furnish the spiritual dynamic for a continued forward push. The Christian Stewardship Movement is fundamentally a call to the high decision to place God and the Kingdom first. Just as it required a world war to make evident what is a one hundred percent patriotism, so it is requiring the militant call of the Stewardship Movement in the various communions to furnish a generation of new Christians who will apprehend the vital relation between genuine Christianity and the consecration of property. These Studies in Stewardship are written in the conviction that, if the Stewardship Revival is to lift the Church to a new and permanent level of spiritual life, it must be steered between the bald legalism, which can see in Christian stewardship nothing larger than the tithe, and the sophistry of the really insincere man who is ready to acknowledge only with words that "All that I have belongs to God."
