Sinopse

A balanced, accessible commentary for Spirit-filled Christians

● written by pastorally sensitive biblical scholars from the Spirit-filled tradition 
● paragraph-by-paragraph commentary 
● images, illustrations, and sidebars on pentecostal/charismatic/revival history or insights 
● engages biblical books in their ancient setting 
● emphasizes how we listen alongside ancient audiences for the Spirit's voice in our time and contexts 
 
Series volumes explore how God works in the biblical texts and how Christians can expect God to work today, even if in new or culturally surprising ways. Series editors are Holly Beers, Westmont College, and Craig S. Keener, Asbury Theological Seminary.

    Minister Rossi Tolliver is ready to settle down, but there is a good reason he isn't married. Besides the outward attraction, he desires a woman who is sweet, humble, and loves the Lord. 
     
    As the family minister, everybody had an opinion about what type of woman would be his perfect mate: one not prone to anger, have a gentle spirit, be kind to others, and be a faithful churchgoer. What an impressive resume. They were all good qualities, but his family had forgotten the most important criteria: She had to have his heart. 
     
    After praying for years for the "one," Rossi knew what woman could complement him. Who was he kidding? Jesetta "Jet" Hutchens couldn't claim three out of five, or even two, and she was due in town in a couple of days. What was he going to do? 
     
     
     
    Keep praying, the Lord whispered. 
     
     
     
    Jet lives by her own set of rules. Love is the farthest thing from her mind. But Rossi, the man and the minister, is hard to resist. Is Jet ready to allow the Holy Spirit to lead her to love?

    Aspiring religious leaders looking to elevate their sermons will find valuable guidance in "Kingdom Communication" by David E. Pritchett . This book argues that the secret sauce of a powerful sermon isn't the information itself, but the speaker's deep connection with God. Pritchett emphasizes practices like prayer, meditation, and even fasting as ways to strengthen your spiritual well-being. By focusing on these, you become a clearer channel for God's message, ensuring your words resonate with a deeper truth than your own ideas. However, spiritual grounding isn't the only pillar of a successful sermon. Pritchett acknowledges the importance of knowledge as well. The book dives into the importance of studying your religion's theological foundation, which includes a deep understanding of religious texts. But knowledge extends beyond scripture. Studying religious history provides context and helps you see how your faith's beliefs and practices developed over time. Finally, the book emphasizes the importance of honing your communication skills. Learning the art of persuasion and effective public speaking allows you to connect with your audience on a deeper level, ensuring your message is clear, engaging, and leaves a lasting impact on your congregation. In essence, "Kingdom Communication" equips religious leaders with a two-pronged approach: cultivating a strong spiritual connection and developing a solid knowledge base alongside effective communication skills. This combination allows you to deliver sermons that are both deeply meaningful and well-articulated, inspiring and guiding your congregation on their spiritual journeys.
