In a society where the workplace is so commonly ridiculed, even Christians must wonder what their role and function in it should be. In his book, The Eagle and the Dove: The Spirit at Work, brother Frank shows us that, with a proper attitude, Christians can do mighty things for the kingdom of God in the workplace. As you sit back and go through the years of Frank's ministry, may the Lord bless you and cause you to evaluate the effectiveness you are having in your vocation.
This book is intended as an aid to believers in developing a daily time of morning revival with the Lord in His word. At the same time, it provides a limited review of the semiannual training held July 1-6, 2024, in Anaheim, California, on “Experiencing, Enjoying, and Expressing Christ (1).” Through intimate contact with the Lord in His word, the believers can be constituted with life and truth and thereby equipped to prophesy in the meetings of the church unto the building up of the Body of Christ.
Lancelot Andrewes (1555-1626) was a scholar and Bishop of Chicester. He was the overseer of the translation of the Authorized Version of the Bible (King James Version).
From biblical times to today, humans have found meaning and significance in the actions and symbolism of birds. We admire their mystery and manners, their strength and fragility, their beauty and their ugliness—and perhaps compare these very characteristics to their own lives in the process. Though admired today, the birds of Scripture are largely unseen and underappreciated. From the well-known image of the dove to the birds that gorge on the flesh of the defeated “beast” in Revelation, birds play a dynamic part in Scripture. They bring bread to the prophets. They are food for the wanderers. As sacrifices, they are the currency of mercy. Highlighting 10 birds throughout Scripture, author Debbie Blue explores their significance in both familiar and unfamiliar biblical stories and illustrates how and why they have represented humanity across culture, Christian tradition, art, and contemporary psyche. With these (usually) minor characters at the forefront of human imaginations, poignant life lessons illuminate such qualities as desire and gratitude, power and vulnerability, insignificance and importance—even as readers gain a better understanding that God’s mysterious grace is sometimes most evident in His simplest of creatures.
