Sinopse

While many aspects of leadership development are similar for women and men, women face different cultural expectations and have different experiences than their male counterparts. Anna Morgan's own experiences in pastoral ministry leadership launched her search for a holistic way to grow the skills, influence, and authority of women who are gifted and called as leaders. 
 
This book provides a positive, comprehensive, research-based model for developing women in church and ministry leadership. Morgan identifies seven aspects of leadership development that form a woman over her lifetime. Three work inwardly as a woman grows in leadership: spiritual calling, giftedness, and emotional intelligence. Four work externally to shape her authority and influence: home life supports, ministry leadership contexts, leadership relationships, and communication. 
 
Growing Women in Ministry offers a new way to understand how women leaders are formed and how they rise to become influential leaders in positions of authority in churches and ministries. It is written in a clear, accessible style for both female ministry leaders and men seeking to promote female leaders. It includes policy suggestions, strategies, values for ideal growing conditions, and discussion questions, making it an ideal resource for ministry, practical theology, and leadership courses, church and parachurch leaders, and pastors.

    Personal stories aren't enough to offer individuals peace when they question their own existence. But the Bible's story comes not from humanity, but from God. Author, T. Desmond Alexander, suggests that God has given us the reasons for creation and our existence in the Bible, "by resolving an intricate plot that sheds light on the entire story," Alexander writes. Using this theory to start from the denouement, or resolution, in Revelation's last verses and work backward, Alexander pieces together the Bible's overarching plot. The resulting picture reveals the reasons for creation and life that have eluded those who seek to answer life's biggest questions without first placing themselves in God's story.

    More than just a guide to understanding Galatians, best-selling author Warren Wiersbe's Be Free is also a guide to embracing freedom in Christ. As a man who is known as the "pastor of pastors" and has studied the Bible relentlessly, gleaning relevance for today for his readers and listeners, Wiersbe has so gripped the hearts of his wide audience that he has sold over 4 million copies of his "Be" series alone! 
    His accessible, at times quirky and comical, style of writing is perfect for any age group to crave more of the Word of God. He opens up Paul's epistle, explaining Paul's approach to the Galatians and putting ancient traditions in perspective for Christians today. Most importantly, he illustrates through Paul's writing how the Gospel can only remain the Gospel of Christ if it is solely for God's glory alone. Just as the Galatian church was slipping back into the dangerous rituals of the Jewish religious system, Christians today add parameters around Scripture that hinder them and that Christ never intended.

    The Hell There Is - An...

    Even self-described Christians question whether God would consign anyone to hell. Msgr. Pope explains this false perception: “If it exists at all, it is largely empty, except perhaps for a few serial killers or genocidal maniacs like Hitler.” People who adopt this belief are ignoring Jesus’s teachings that instruct the exact opposite.  
    In The Hell There Is, Msgr. Pope defends the doctrine of hell against doubters and skeptics. The reader will learn how God has largely been refashioned and trivialized in much of modern thinking. The God of Scripture has been replaced by the “Jesus I know,” who would never impose demands on anyone. As in the past, those nowadays who invent their own god engage in idolatry. By denying the existence of hell, they choose a false god who is indifferent to their spiritual condition over the true God who makes demands on those He desires to save.  
    Msgr. Pope argues persuasively why hell plays a central role in God’s plan of salvation, based on a detailed examination of the scriptural evidence. A thorough explication of the teachings of Jesus on hell provides a convincing refutation of commonly heard claims that He never spoke about eternal punishment. Important questions about hell are answered completely based on sources from both Scripture and Tradition, including theologically sound insights from Dante’s Inferno. Through this edifying book, readers will come to better understand, and renew belief in, the doctrine of hell.

    Buckle Up, Pilgrim: Take a ride into the Heart of Faith with John Bunyan  If you're looking for a comfortable, easy listen, this ain't it. John Bunyan's words are a fire that'll burn away the fluff and leave you standing face-to-face with the raw truth of your own soul.  Think about it: Have you ever believed in something so fiercely that you'd risk everything for it? Your freedom? Your life? That's what Bunyan did. He, and countless others like him, were labeled rebels, outcasts, even heretics. They were jailed, persecuted, some even killed. All because they dared to stand up for their faith.  And guess what? The ripple effects of their fight for freedom reached far beyond their own shores. The Pilgrims who landed on Plymouth Rock? They were part of the same movement that Bunyan championed: the Puritans. Their courage not only laid the groundwork for religious liberty in America but also inspired countless others around the world to stand up for their own right to worship freely.  This audiobook isn't just some dusty old relic. It's a collection of Bunyan's writings, penned in a cold, damp prison cell. As I read his words, I felt like I was right there with him, sharing his struggles, his hopes, his unwavering faith.  Let me be frank, I expected this audiobook to be dry, maybe even a little boring. I mean; the audiobook is over 350 years old, and it's got "thees" and "thous" in it! But Bunyan's words hit me like a lightning bolt. They're raw, they're real, and they speak to the deepest parts of the human heart.  How could a man locked away for his beliefs write with such passion, such love? What drove him? What made him tick? That's what we're going to discover together.  We're going to dive deep into Bunyan's world, exploring the timeless themes of sin, salvation, and the relentless love of God. We'll confront the darkness within ourselves, but we won't stay there. Bunyan will lead us to the foot of the cross, where grace and forgiveness flow freely.  Get ready for a wild ride. Bunyan's words will challenge you, inspire you, and maybe even shake you to your core. But if you're willing to take this journey, you'll come out the other side transformed.  So, are you ready? Let's walk this pilgrim's path together.  From Dungeons to Glory: A New Look at the Classics  This audiobook is part of a series titled From Dungeons to Glory, which features the writings of Christian authors who were imprisoned for their faith. The first two books in the series are Pilgrim on God and Salvation and Pilgrim on the Path to Eternity. Together, these books were originally published by Jeremiah Chaplin as The Riches of Bunyan as Selected from His Works.  I hope you'll join me on this journey through Bunyan's timeless words. May they bring you closer to God and help you live a life of faith, hope, and love.

    Experience the transformational power of the sacred, ancient, radical rhythm of Sabbath rest. In the fast-paced, chaotic, overly scheduled cadence of our culture, it can be difficult to imagine how to squeeze the Sabbath into our already over-stuffed lives―like trying to fit an eleventh passenger into an eight-passenger van. What if Sabbath isn’t designed to “fit” into our lives, but rather to take over our lives―in the best way imaginable?  Hebrew scholar and Old Testament professor Travis West believes that we’ve misunderstood what it means to truly Sabbath. In his book, The Sabbath Way, Travis takes readers on a spiritual journey to discovering radical rest is more than a weekly practice of taking a day off―it’s also a posture, a way of living every day. It means much more than sleeping in, taking naps, or chilling poolside for an afternoon; instead, the radical rest of Sabbath means putting rest―and delight, gratitude, and flourishing―first rather than last. Using personal story and expert knowledge, Travis shows Christians how to make Sabbath rest the metronome that establishes and maintains our life’s rhythms, apprenticing us to abundance our whole life long.  Listeners of this audiobook will discover how the Sabbath:  slows us down helps us discover the things that make us feel most alive, freeing us from rigidity and legalism  disrupts our cultural obsession with productivity and achievement and cultivates a more life-giving connection between our work and our worth  inspires an unhurried, sacramental worldview that sees all of life as a gift  safeguards neighborliness, creation care, awareness of God’s presence, justice, belonging and inclusiveness―enabling us to grow into the people God is calling us to be in our lives, our homes, our workplaces, our communities, and our world  The Spirit of God longs for you to be fully alive, and the world needs your unique vitality. The Sabbath is calling. Will you come?
