Identifying Your Gifts and Service

Small Group Edition

By: Henry E Neufeld

What is a spiritual gifts? How can I know what gifts are spiritual gifts? The original edition of Identifying Your Gifts and Service was a program for whole church congregations, led by a teacher, to discover their gifts and place of service. It contained a survey, as does this book, but that is not a typical scientific survey designed to discover what kind of personality you have, what you feel like doing, or even what your talents are. The author believes that the key to identifying spiritual gifts is a process of spiritual discernment, a process that takes place in the Body of Christ, your local church congregation or group. This Small Group Edition is designed for a group of people to study together. The lectures and study materials are provided in the various chapters. With the cooperation of your pastor and church leadership, you can identify your gifts and find your place of service in your church congregation. In going through this process you will be invited to shake off some of the walls and limitations you have placed on yourself and open yourself up to the full call that God has on your life. Discovering and using your Spiritual Gifts is an adventure! Get involved!

God the Creator

Toward a More Robust Doctrine of Creation

By: Henry E. Neufeld

What does it mean to believe that God is the creator? Are you required to dismiss the findings of modern science and the theory of evolution? While Christians share a belief in “God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth,” they do not all agree on just when and how God created. Many are unaware of the many different views on origins that are held by Christians and on the theological implications of those beliefs. This book discusses the basic Christian beliefs on the origins of the universe and of life, but then moves forward to provide some pointers toward a more robust doctrine. It is very difficult to be truly neutral, and the author does not attempt to do so. Rather, he attempts to speak in such a way as to foster further discussion. Key topics include biblical interpretation, the relationship of written revelation and study of the created world, the fall, sin, and redemption, including the glorious purpose God has for all creation. It is suitable as an introduction to the issues involved in this debate.

When People Speak for God

By: Henry E. Neufeld

People with faith have always struggled with whether to believe someone who claims to have a message from God. Those with special interpretations of Scripture often claim just as much authority as those who claim to be prophets. Writer and Bible teacher Henry Neufeld wrestles with the question of how to know what to believe. (Christian)

What's in a Version?

By: Henry E Neufeld

Henry E. Neufeld writes about Bible translations from his knowledge as a student of Biblical languages, and his experience teaching them to laypeople and discussing them on the internet. Many people have questions about translations because they do not understand how translations are produced. Much of the material available is either polarizing, or is provided to advocate a particular version. What's in a Version? strives to provide a basis for lay students to understand how translations are made so they can understand the arguments and become confident of the Bible version they choose to use for reading and study.

Stories of the Way

By: Henry E. Neufeld

Much of the text in the Bible is in the form of stories. From Old Testament tales of the patriarchs to the parables of Jesus, the reader is confronted with a variety of narratives. Even in those places where Bible writers are making and explaining statements of fact, there is a story in the background. What do these stories mean? Bible teacher, writer, and publisher Henry Neufeld thinks that's the wrong question to ask. (Yes, there are bad questions ) We spend a great deal of time trying to reduce Bible stories to a series of statements of fact, sucking the life out of them in the process. We don't understand one of the parables of Jesus better when we've come up with a moral for the story. In fact, we've lost some of the meaning. Instead, Henry suggests learning to think more in the form of stories. In fact, he even asks us to consider looking at the stories behind the various statements of fact in the Bible, finding similarities in our own stories, and even weaving new stories from our imaginations. This, he teaches, is the best way to learn to make scripture come alive and to live it. This collection of short stories is not presented primarily as stories to read, but as a challenge to put your imagination to work as you study the Bible-to write your own stories. When you've let your imagination break the bounds of your life the Holy Spirit can then show you how to live new stories in your own life and in your relationships with family, friends, church, and the entire world. This book includes 25 short stories. All but two of these stories were originally published on the Jevlir Caravansary fiction blog. Two new stories, "The Magic Sword" and "The Juror's Oath" were written just for this collection. Scripture references and thought questions have been provided for each story to help small groups use them in discussions. Come join the story.

Along Bible Paths

Summer Devotions

By: Henry E. Neufeld

Along Bible Paths: Summer Devotions grew out of the daily devotional e-mail list that Jody Neufeld began in 1999 to encourage others to begin their day with the Lord. Many continue to enjoy these thoughts in their e-mail every weekday morning, or via the Jody's Devotionals blog. This book is a collection organized for the summer. We hope many more will enjoy these in printed form.

Tales from Jevlir

Oddballs

By: Henry E. Neufeld

Simple Risk: Marita is a teenager, or at least she thinks she is. Nobody knows, not even her noble adoptive parents. But she has been arrested near a bank with gold bars bearing the bank s stamp. Now she ll go on trial for armed robbery, and the penalty is death. The Call: Hedder doesn't have any gifts other than following a plow or silencing a squalling child until the king's knight comes along with a call. A State of Mind: Laaraalindarinaaz, more commonly known as Lara or even just La needs a weapon to drive the pirates from her village. But can a weapon be more dangerous than the pirates? In this collection of ten fantasy short stories, eight collected from The Jevlir Caravansary story blog, and two written especially for this collection, the author portrays parts of an alternate universe he created originally for adventure gaming, but which now forms a background for story writing. Each major character illustrates some aspect of the background world. Together they begin to form a tapestry. These stories are written for fun, not education. They offer the opportunity to play with some different rules and different consequences, and to look at the people such a world might produce.

Not Ashamed of the Gospel

Confessions of a Liberal Charismatic

By: Henry E Neufeld

What is the good news? If the gospel that Jesus taught is so good, why are Christians so bad? How can Christians relate to people of other faiths or of no faith at all? Bible teacher Henry Neufeld wrestles with these issues in this book. This is not a book of theology. It is his personal testimony of what Jesus means in his life, and how one can be both a serious, committed Christian and a strong proponent of diversity and dialogue. In fact, he finds in the gospel not just permission to be tolerant, but a command to be open, honest, and clear in his convictions, and yet non-judgmental of the views of others. Henry's understanding of Christianity is built around the incarnation. If God can cross the gap between the infinite and the finite to experience life with us, surely we can cross the gap between ourselves and our fellow human beings. "You are never more God-like than when you open your heart's door to another person. The more different they are, the more God-like that action is," he says in describing how Christians should seek to build relationships.

The Creation and Flood Stories

An Introductory Aid to Understanding Source and Redaction Criticism

By: Henry E Neufeld

If the Pentateuch was built from multiple sources as many scholars believe, what might these sources have looked like? In this booklet, Henry Neufeld takes a look at the text of Genesis 1-2 (the creation stories) and Genesis 6-9 (the flood stories) to see how the various sources might have looked. This is not intended as a new scholarly proposal, but rather a summary and example based on existing scholarship. It should help readers who have not done a detailed study of critical methodologies understand what the issues are and how they impact our reading of the text. This book is not intended to stand alone. It can be a supplement either to the author’s volume God the Creator in the Topical Line Drives series, or can accompany a study of biblical sources and biblical criticism from other volumes, such as those listed in the Resources section. It makes use of and references biblical Hebrew, but can be read by someone without a knowledge of that language. Join in an examination of the pre-history of the text and dig more deeply in the scriptures as we have them today.
