Cultivating a Thoughtful Faith

By: Dr Maxie D Dunnam,Steven G W Moore

A passionate call for theological thinking that challenges our intellect, enriches our faith, kindles our heart, and infuses our daily life. The assumption in much of the church is that theology is an obstacle to a vital, growing faith, not an aid to it. In fact, everyone is a theologian--either a good one or a bad one. So what are the advantages of thinking intentionally about matters of theology and how they can guide, inform, and nourish our faith? What are the components of good thinking and what are some ways we can cultivate it? As the contributors to this volume make clear, theology is for everyday and every person, as all are called to be thoughtful followers of Jesus. They make the case for how a living, thoughtful faith and how learning to think about God can launch your faith and make it powerful and alive.This engaging volume will help lay people, incoming college students, and prospective seminarians understand that vital faith is as much about our mind as it is about a warm heart. "Cultivating a Thoughtful Faith challenges the intellect while touching the heart. It advances our understanding of how to love God with all our minds. We in Christian higher education celebrate this contribution to a deeper understanding of our calling." --- Robert C. Andringa, President, Council for Christian Colleges and Universities, Washington, D.C. "Rather than reserving theology for a classroom or Sunday morning discussion, these essays challenge the reader to make sure that theology engages the imagination and the intellect, the heart and the mind. The writers remind us that a thoughtful faith compels us to change the world by transforming our daily lives from the inside out." --- Barbara Oliver Korner, Associate Dean, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida.

Philippians and Titus

A Pentecostal Commentary

By: DR. MATTHEW N. O. SADIKU

Every serious student of the Bible desires to understand the text, discover the biblical principles, and apply the truths to his or her life. This commentary is designed to help students, pastors, and Bible teachers understand Philippians and Titus in a simple manner. Working from the popular New International Version (NIV), the author provides helpful commentary on the text verse by verse. This verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects. First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible. Philippians is a joyful, personal letter. It teaches that real unity and joy are possible only in Jesus Christ. Discover Pauls secret to finding joy in Christ. Titus is one of the Pastoral Epistles. It deals with the need of godliness in the church, in the home, and in the world.

The Intentional Transformative Power of Holy Sex

By: Dr. Joyce Crider-Anderson

The Intentional Transformative Power of Holy Sex By: Dr. Joyce Crider-Anderson Most people, especially within religious communities, are afraid to talk about sexual intercourse. When sex is discussed, it is rarely talked about in a meaningful, deep way. Remember: God created sex. So why are we afraid to talk about this wonderful, pleasurable gift He has given us? Limited talk about sex leads to misunderstanding, abuse, and misuse of this God-given gift. To get the conversation started, this book examines God’s original and ongoing purpose in giving mankind sexual intercourse at creation. The Intentional Transformative Power of Holy Sex facilitates discussion, reflection, and ongoing research on sex.

COLOSSIANS: "Presenting you Holy"

COLOSSIANS: "Presenting you Holy"

By: Dr Ken Baker

I guess every believer is conscious of wanting to go further with God, to dig deeper, and to climb higher. Paul himself said, "Not that I have already arrived, but I press on..." But the New Testament, whilst stating that qualification, also provides an astonishing optimism of grace - a marvellous confidence that God can do "all things" in and through us. The little book of Colossians expresses that confidence to a high degree. The writer is not daunted by the poor quality of the believers, neither by the sins of their past nor the distractions of their present. In simple, powerful prose, he outlines a challenge which is worth taking up. It is the challenge of Christian holiness. Jesus Christ has done a work - the past tense is exhilarating- so that he might offer us to God "holy and blameless and irreproachable." It is God's design, that is, that we are "presented holy." It is the purpose of this book to explore how Colossians enables that undertaking.

Ephesians

A Pentecostal Commentary

By: Dr. Matthew N. O. Sadiku

The greatest need of professing Christians today is a better, deeper, and fuller knowledge of Christ. The Christian life can be described as getting to know God better every day. Every Christian should regularly?daily?read the Word of God. We should find time for quiet time or personal devotion. For over 20 years I have been using commentaries in my devotions. The blessings derived from the commentaries is overwhelming. I am writing this commentary to share some of those blessings and lessons I have learned over the years. This verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects. First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible. Ephesians ranks very high among the theological literature of the Christian Church. It has been regarded by some as the believers bank and the treasure house of the Bible. It is perhaps the grandest of all Pauls epistles.

American Methodism Revised and Updated

By: Kenneth E. Rowe,Jean Miller Schmidt,Dr. Russell E. Richey,Ashley Boggan D.

The essential guide to American Methodism revised and updated through 2020. Four of Methodism’s most respected teachers give us a vivid picture of 260 years of Methodist experience in America. The revised edition updates the Methodist movement’s story through 2020, including the social, political, economic, technological, and global disruptions that cause faith communities and denominations to pull apart. American Methodism Revised and Updated begins with the explosion of evangelical Pietism and revolutionary Methodism, the First Great Awakening, as an independent nation was formed. It then highlights key 19th century themes and Methodist contributions, such as spreading scriptural holiness through missions and literature, planting tens of thousands of Sunday schools and churches by Circuit Riders, the pivotal Methodist schism between abolitionists and enslavers, the innovative building of schools and hospitals into the next century, and the revivalism of the Second Great Awakening. Finally it explores the movements of 20th century Methodism, including the expansion of home and foreign missions, the Methodist drive for Prohibition, the decision for nationwide reunification on the cusp of World War II, reunification with the United Brethren during the Vietnam War, the Methodist ordination of women during the 1950s, Black Methodist leadership in the 1960s Civil Rights movement, and the liturgical renewal or reformation of worship (ancient and future).
