DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Exegetical Guide to the Greek New Testament (EGGNT) closes the gap between the Greek text and the available lexical and grammatical tools, providing all the necessary information for greater understanding of the text. The series makes interpreting any given New Testament book easier, especially for those who are hard pressed for time but want to preach or teach with accuracy and authority. Each volume begins with a brief introduction to the particular New Testament book, a basic outline, and a list of recommended commentaries. The body is devoted to paragraph-by-paragraph exegesis of the Greek text and includes homiletical helps and suggestions for further study. A comprehensive exegetical outline of the New Testament book completes each EGGNT volume.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn New Life through Shared Ministry, Judith Urban creates a pathway for building a shared ministry system. She assists readers in transforming their congregation into one where members are invited into volunteer ministry; people are matched according to their gifts and interests with ministry opportunities; volunteers are offered support, training, and appreciation; and all grow to spiritual maturity through that ministry. This comprehensive guide is based on Urban's consulting, training, and planning with shared ministry directors and teams the past 12 years, her experience building a shared ministry system in a congregation, and her own studies in the field of volunteer management. Urban observes that shared ministry is a way of being church together that creates a distinctive congregational culture. It encompasses the many ways members of a congregation serve their faith community and the wider community. It is based on the concept that all are called to participate in the work of the church bringing the good news of God s saving grace to the world. It is also a system of interrelated parts that work together to bring the concept into reality. Congregations that grow a shared ministry culture are able to facilitate the unique work God gives each member and the community as a whole, creating a system that supports the people of God as they carry out excellent, effective ministry.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEmbracing Purpose is a Bible study and small group process designed to satisfy a God-given longing that most people experience at some point in their lives: we want to make a difference. We want to give our lives away to something beyond ourselves. But we don't know how. The Embracing Purpose package, which includes a workbook, a 10-message DVD series and Leader's Guide, offers everything a church needs to equip women to find, love and live their God-given purpose (and everything an individual needs to discover her purpose). Participants who complete the course will come away with answers to two key questions -Who am I? and What am I to do with the time, talents and treasures God has given me? They will have discovered and labeled their unique design from God, written a purpose statement and developed a purpose plan for walking out their purpose.Embracing Purpose self-discovery workbook has four components--a narrative of the author's own journey toward purpose, a Bible study to explore the biblical foundation for pursuing a life of purpose, self-discovery exercises and stories of women who are living out their God-given purpose. The video messages do not repeat the content found in the workbook but supplement it with additional concepts, primarily focusing on barriers or roadblocks that are common to women.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe doctrine of the Trinity is taught and believed by all evangelicals, but rarely is it fully understood or celebrated. In The Deep Things of God, systematic theologian Fred Sanders shows why we ought to embrace the doctrine of the Trinity wholeheartedly as a central concern of evangelical theology. Sanders demonstrates, engagingly and accessibly, that the doctrine of the Trinity is grounded in the gospel itself. In this book, readers will understand that a robust doctrine of the Trinity has massive implications for their lives, restoring depth to prayer, worship, Bible study, missions, tradition, and understanding of Christianity’s fundamental doctrines. This new edition includes a study guide with discussion questions, action points, recommended reading, and more.
