What Is the Church? Foundational Truths from God's Word At the beginning of the twentieth century, Christians in Africa numbered approximately nine million—by the end, that number had grown to more than 380 million. As the number of Christians continues to grow, African pastors are often overwhelmed and in desperate need of guidance. Drawing from three decades of pastoral experience in Zambia, Conrad Mbewe has written a comprehensive handbook specifically for African pastors and church leaders. Structured around twenty commonly asked questions about God's design for the church, this helpful resource covers topics ranging from the definition of church and the role of church members to the importance of doctrine. Through this book, Mbewe aims to equip pastors and leaders with biblical principles that will "permeate the landscape of Africa and transform its churches for generations to come." Published in partnership with the Gospel Coalition.

God's Way-- His Answer is an annointed message of truth which the Lord gave to Pastor Randy Lyons while he was going over scripture in Romans between Chapters Seven and Eight for the Body of Christ. This is a powerful message that is simple to understand if you have the eyes to see and the ears to hear what the Lord is saying to the Body of Christ (the Church). This book will help deepen your wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the magnitude of God, His real desire for the Church, and what we have to do to have the Word come alive in us by living in the Holy Spirit and not in the fleshly, carnal ways of the world. Pastor Randy Lyons wrote this book to help your understanding of this biblical process for believers that seek to have God come alive in their hearts every day of their life. "While I transcribe the audio message and end result, the message was still coming alive for me. God's message deepened my understanding, wisdom and knowledge of just who God is -- His magnitude of what He can do. This message was life changing for me and brought me closer to God not just for one moment or day, but in a continuous existence and lifestyle with God living in my heart." Source: Gloria Lyons. "This book is a jalapeno pepper! If you know God, He's zesty and delicious. If you¿re not used to Him, look out -- it might burn a little! Powerful, convicting... alive." Source: Grace Johnson.
