Download or read book The Pastor s Handbook KJV written by Moody Publishers and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pastor's Handbook (KJV) is intended to meet the continuing need of the Christian minister for guidance and forms as he does the work of the ministry. It seeks to offer options to suit the tastes of the pastor and congregation within the parameters of quality, beauty and dignity. To this end, numerous changes, both large and small, have been made—more selected Scriptures, new alternatives for special occasions, some significant additions and changes. At the same time, every effort has been made to keep the book concise and compact to maximize its usefulness. The formulas should be sufficient for the ordinary needs of the minister. They may be modified or supplemented by materials from the pastor's private collection or his own preparation. Some who stress liberty in prayer and preaching dislike set forms, preferring spontaneity and a free style as they worship. If the spiritual vitality of a church is maintained there need be no fear that these forms will become lifeless rituals. The use of forms should never become merely formal. And if the use of forms adds beauty and dignity to the atmosphere of sacredness, who can object? May the blessing of God attend all who glean from this manual, enabling it them to know what to say and how to say it. This is made also for allowing them to know what to do and how to do it especially as the occasion requires. Gratitude is expressed to many pastors and contributors for this volume. Includes the: worship service, baptism, communion, funerals, anointing services, healing services, membership, installation, baby and child dedication, consecration services, ceremonies for buildings and visitation.
Download or read book Pastor s Handbook written by John R. Bisagno and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful. Practical. Pastoral. Pastor’s Handbook is the major expansion and revision of beloved preacher John R. Bisagno’s previously heralded work, Letters to Timothy. Based on his sixty years in ministry, it now includes 160 brief yet powerful chapters of practical insight for handling real life pastoral issues—“things that might have fallen through the cracks in seminary.” Bisagno still mentors young pastors in his retirement and recognizes new challenges in this profession known for its high dropout rate. Keeping that in mind, Pastor’sHandbook adds helpful entries on such issues as “The Seeker Friendly Church,” “Solving Worship Wars,” “Multiple Campuses,” “New Media,” and “Home Groups” as well as “Internet Pornography,” “Biblical Inerrancy,” “The High Cost of Overnight Change,” “Homosexuality,” “Christianity and Islam,” and more than a dozen other timely topics. Bisagno also refreshes many of the original chapters, factoring in new world issues and his updated survey of pastoral colleagues. In the foreword, pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren (The Purpose-Driven Life) writes, “My prayer is that an entire new generation of pastors and church planters will use this book to develop the necessary perspective, convictions, character, and skills needed for ministry in the 21st century from this giant of the 20th century.”

Download or read book Relatable Bible Study Guide written by Louie Giglio and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at relationships the way God intended them to be. No one is better at relationships than God. His very being—as one God in three persons—is relationship. And he created us so that we could be in relationship with him and with each other. From the moment we're born, relationships shape who we are and how we engage with the world around us. Beginning with how we see ourselves, we develop a view of God and others that impacts the way we relate to our parents, navigate friendships, dating relationships and marriage. In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Louie Giglio explores—from a pastoral and biblical perspective—the fundamental question of what makes us relatable to others. He shows how God can: Change our perspective on relationships. Give us greater purpose in dating and marriage. Bring us peace in the midst of relational conflict. Help us restore relationships that seem broken beyond repair. Because God has gone to extraordinary lengths to relate to us, we have the potential to build incredible relationships with one another. Embracing God's love and receiving His grace changes the way we relate to him, our family, our friends, and ourselves. The Relat(able) Study Guide includes video discussion questions, Bible exploration, and personal study and reflection materials for in between sessions. Sessions include: The Shovel and the Spoon The Man/Woman in the Mirror A God to Call Father The Friend Everyone Longs for Becoming Someone vs. Finding Someone Handshake of Peace Bonus: Why Date?

Download or read book A Call to Purity written by Rocky Wyatt and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a world where many believers have succumbed to the continual bombardment of impure and ungodly influences. Many Christians seem to develop their own standards of personal holiness based on how other Christians are living. The majority of Christians seem to be satisfied with their personal conduct as long as they have standards that are slightly higher than the unbeliever. Consequently we live in a culture that seems very similar to the days of Jeremiah: the people claimed to be innocent and undefiled, while God declared them to be "harlots with many lovers" and treacherous.Tragically, many Christians refuse to study the Bible with a sincere desire to integrate the living principles of God's Word into their lives. Those who have come to know Christ as their Savior should want to both study and apply God's Word.Jeremiah said, "When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O LORD God Almighty" (Jeremiah 15:16).The purpose of this book is simple. It is a reminder that God has a great deal to say about purity. His standards are in no way ambiguous. The only question is whether we are willing to submit our lives to the authority of God and His Word.
