DOWNLOAD EBOOKBlue Collar Jesus is a daily devotional written by Pastor Jay Loucks. Jay serves as a local pastor for a small rural United Methodist congregation in Northwest Indiana. He has had the honor of shepherding a flock just one mile south of the farm he grew up on and just a half mile north of where he lives with his wife Lynn. Together they have three grown children, Megan and Mara and R.J. For the past 20 years Jay has balanced the responsibility of pastoring a growing church and taking classes at Bethel College and the Appalachian Local Pastor's School in Corbin, Kentucky, while also working his day job as a plumbing and heating contractor. His unique blue-collar approach to the study and application of Scripture has enabled him to make a special connection with folks like him who get up every morning and go to work and do their job as they raise their children and find the time to be alone with Jesus. Find Jay on the website for his church, Lambs Chapel United Methodist Church, at www.lambschapel.org. And you can email him at [email protected]. Or give him a call at (219) 380-7477.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTo be faithful to the gospel, all ministry must be indigenous; it must participate in the distinctive practices and perspectives of the people among whom ministry is taking place. Because our society tends to ignore or deny the reality of class divisions and prejudice, too many congregational leaders know too little about the world of working class whites. Continuing his groundbreaking work on class and American religion, Sample opens up the lives and lifestyles of working class whites in order to engage with them in authentic and transformational ministry.From the Circuit Rider review: "Tex Sample has written one of the most fun books to read on ministry that you will ever come across. Weaving philosophy, theology, country western lyrics, and stories throughout the book Sample at once delights and provokes us to think about the way in which we live out church in this day and age."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat Can Blue-Collar Business Teach Us About Work and Faith? The faith and work conversation is alive and well, but most resources focus on white-collar jobs, neglecting the majority of the workforce. When Dave Hataj realized he needed to go home and take over the family gear shop, he didn’t expect it to become a spiritually transformative season of his life. Yet as he began to think about what it meant to be a Christian in business, he discovered just how much our work matters to God and how blue-collar business can change people, communities, and even the world. Drawing on the stories of his business, Edgerton Gears, Dave teaches you how to cultivate true inner goodness, meaning, and mission at work—no matter what you do. Your workplace can and should be a place of significance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDavid Crisp uses humor and everyday life experiences to effectively communicate timeless scriptural truths that challenge and inspire both the believer and the seeker. Drawing from time he spent growing up on a farm in western Kansas, a season as a Deputy Sheriff, 15 years serving as the pastor of a growing suburban church, and lessons learned from 27 years of marriage and raising two sons, David Crisp weaves together home-spun humor, common sense and Biblical truth into a comfortable patch-work quilt of a devotional book that sometimes evokes a grin, sometimes a tear, but always interesting and introspective thoughts about life while keeping a consistent focus on Christ.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMost of us know what we believe as Catholics, but often we're unclear on why we believe it. At a time when vast numbers of Catholics are slipping away from the Faith, God has tasked you and countless other Catholics with understanding it so you will be prepared to defend it. With an easygoing and inviting style, EWTN's John Martignoni doesn't simply introduce you to the major doctrines of the Catholic Faith; he explains why they are true and shows you how to explain them effectively to Protestants and "cafeteria Catholics" alike in ways that will draw them into those truths. Far from a complex survey of obscure theological points, this lively book employs clear, simple language that not only demonstrates the fundamental fact that the Bible is a Catholic book, but also teaches Catholics how to "talk Bible" to non-Catholics. When you are done with this book, you will know the biblical basis for the Church's teachings on the sacraments, Purgatory, Mary, the papacy, and why salvation requires faith and works. You'll also be versed in the strategies for effectively challenging others to examine their beliefs in light of the overwhelming scriptural evidence for Catholicism. Blue Collar Apologetics will also teach you: - How to go on the offensive without being offensive - The rules of engagement for discussing the faith with others - Four techniques that will allow you to talk to anyone about your faith - An easy tactic anyone can use for engaging non-Catholics - How to explain the Marian dogmas using the Bible and common sense - The two key "pillars of Protestantism" -- and how to respond to each - How to counter the ingrained Protestant maxim "Once saved, always saved" - The basics of Eastern Orthodoxy, which every Catholic needs to master Effective, common sense tactics for defending the Faith against atheist attacks

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTo Obtain an Overcoming Life is a series of devotions on how to overcome the negative traits and behaviors in our life such as; fear, pride, temptation, finding fault, jealousy, making excuses, rebellion and self, or selfishness. These are very important and valuable as they teach us how to obtain the power to live a victorious life in Christ Jesus. It begins with self for unless we can overcome self we won’t be able to overcome other negative traits, as all hinge on self. There are devotions on making right choices and how to set goals and priorities; about attitudes and faith, having a continuous praise in our heart to the Lord and how to obtain our final reward in heaven – thus the ‘Road to Eternal Life.’ As we strive for the Kingdom, we have mountains to climb and valleys to cross, we’re faced with hills and barriers, and each step has a new name. They are there to keep us out of ‘Heaven’s territory.’ We must over - come and step – over; failures and past failures, handicaps of every kind, peer pressure, fear, anger, and defeat. Approximately two-thirds of Jesus’ teachings were in parables. A parable is an earthly story with a spiritual or heavenly meaning, teaching Christian morals, principles and values. Many of these devotions will be based on some of these parables.
