What if there were a few simple practices you could live out on a regular basis that would change the world around you? Being an unstoppable force for the Kingdom of God is not about standing on a street corner handing out gospel tracts. It's not about being loud or obnoxious, and it definitely is not about being forceful. Rather, just as the ocean is a steady source of power and life, so we can find a rhythm of connecting with others to relentlessly demonstrate the love of God--inviting them into a deeper relationship with Jesus.Whether you've been walking with the Lord for years or just got saved yesterday, you can learn to: pray for people in a way that is natural for you, begin a conversation and share your testimony in 15 seconds, Prophesy through encouragement, remember only four words to help you share the gospel, and see God heal the sick through you.The principles in this book have been tried and tested in various ethnic and religious cultures in 20 different nations, and have emerged as practical and powerful ways to help anyone anywhere encounter God's love.

Any good commander will make certain that their soldiers have correct and ample intelligence about the battles they are preparing to fight. This is what we have from our commander in chief, Jesus Christ. In Matthew 24, Jesus entrusts the soldier with a prophetic outline of the end-times. He explains what the world would look like in the advanced stages of depravity (Matthew 24:6-7). He further shared about the rise of religious deception (Matthew 24:4-5), the falling away of the church (Matthew 24:9-12), and the great tribulation (Matthew 24:21). Also hidden within this prophetic overview is a picture of the war between the saints and Satan for the souls of others. We see this in Matthew 24:7a when Jesus says, "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom." While this verse clearly refers to the unprecedented upheaval of racial prejudice and extreme nationalism, Jesus is saying something more here. Nation rising against nation refers to ethnicities or races, but kingdoms refer to governments and countries. I believe that Jesus not only reveals that the natural kingdoms of this world would rise against one another but also that the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness will also rise against each other in unprecedented warfare. Advancing on the Kingdom of Darkness with Power is a spiritual warfare manual written specifically for these end-times. In this book, we will discover how to truly dismantle Satan and his demonic hierarchy through divinely inspired systematic strategies. It is an exhortation for the Christian soldier to take up spiritual arms against the prevailing spiritual darkness that is permeating society. It aids the soldier in this endeavor by preparing them for end-time spiritual warfare, teaching them how to engage the enemy through Spirit-led wisdom and, ultimately, how to find victory for themselves and others. In these tumultuous times we live in, Advancing on the Kingdom of Darkness with Power is a weapon that every Christian soldier should possess in their arsenal.

Award of Merit, 2019 Christianity Today Book Awards (History/Biography) More than forty years ago, conservative Christianity emerged as a major force in American political life. Since then the movement has been analyzed and over-analyzed, declared triumphant and, more than once, given up for dead. But because outside observers have maintained a near-relentless focus on domestic politics, the most transformative development over the last several decades--the explosive growth of Christianity in the global south--has gone unrecognized by the wider public, even as it has transformed evangelical life, both in the US and abroad. The Kingdom of God Has No Borders offers a daring new perspective on conservative Christianity by shifting the lens to focus on the world outside US borders. Melani McAlister offers a sweeping narrative of the last fifty years of evangelical history, weaving a fascinating tale that upends much of what we know--or think we know--about American evangelicals. She takes us to the Congo in the 1960s, where Christians were enmeshed in a complicated interplay of missionary zeal, Cold War politics, racial hierarchy, and anti-colonial struggle. She shows us how evangelical efforts to convert non-Christians have placed them in direct conflict with Islam at flash points across the globe. And she examines how Christian leaders have fought to stem the tide of HIV/AIDS in Africa while at the same time supporting harsh repression of LGBTQ communities. Through these and other stories, McAlister focuses on the many ways in which looking at evangelicals abroad complicates conventional ideas about evangelicalism. We can't truly understand how conservative Christians see themselves and their place in the world unless we look beyond our shores.

Daniel Pel's years of global experience as communicator and minister have produced a refreshing approach to the words, teachings, and stories of Jesus. It is easy to make the gospel parables complicated, but this work is simple yet not simplistic; profound without being pretentious; and creatively approached while still faithful to Scripture. The ramifications of the parables are not just being a "good" person, but dealing with Jesus' teachings on lastday events, life values, relationships, mental and spiritual well-being, and much more. For a practical and introductory approach to the parables of Jesus, give this book a try. —Justin Kim, editor, Adventist Review Daniel Pel allows the parables of Jesus to speak to life’s toughest questions about human suffering, the meaning of life, the character of God, and how a person can receive eternal life. Though the message of the parables is hidden behind metaphorical language, Stories That Transform uses the Bible to make the meaning unmistakably clear. Young and old will feel convicted, challenged, and encouraged by the surprising insights gained from these symbolic teachings of Jesus. —Joe Reeves, editor, inVerse
