Unity - Striving Side by Side for the Gospel

Conrad Mbewe

Beschreibung

Exploring Unity as a Fruit of the Gospel 
Christians most effectively serve others and advance God's kingdom when they are in biblical unity with one another. Unfortunately, modern Christians seem to be divided on countless issues related to ministry, culture, the church, and even unity itself. Some prioritize organizational unity over gospel truth, while others only seek unity with those who share their same doctrinal beliefs.
In this short, accessible guide, author Conrad Mbewe explores unity as a fruit of the gospel. He finds that biblical unity is only achieved after understanding what God has done through Christ and how it is continuously executed by the Holy Spirit. This biblically centered book encourages readers to respond to Paul's apostolic plea of "standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel" (Phil. 1:27), embracing unity as a valuable, God-given blessing. 

- Encourages Unity: Explores unity as a fruit of the gospel that is only understood through what God has done through Christ and executed by the Holy Spirit
- Practical Study: This concise guide encourages Christians to stand firm in the spirit and in unity with others

Son of Southtown - My Life...

Sonny Sandoval, Jon Foreman

Born and raised on the streets of Southtown, two exits from the Mexico border, Sonny Sandoval was always going to go his own way. And as frontman of the platinum selling nu metal band P.O.D.—a group too Christian for the world and too secular for the church—he has broken every mold, defied every expectation, and reached into the hearts and minds of hundreds of thousands of people who wanted to belong to something but never felt like they fit in. 
 
 
 
Sonny's life has been one lived on the edge between two worlds, a line he has attempted to walk with integrity. Raw and uncut, this memoir tells his true story of growing up in the gritty beauty south of San Diego, his early musical influences and big breaks, his rise to fame and many hardships and struggles along the way. 
 
 
 
From stories of performing in cornfields at the Cornerstone Music Festival to rocking MTV's Total Request Live with Carson Daly to playing in New York City just weeks after 9/11, and every unglamorous moment in between, this hard-hitting memoir will have you believing that there's no one right way to follow God's call. Instead, Sonny's story will inspire you to be totally and uniquely you at all times, without apology and without compromise—but with passion and integrity.

Anonym

"[The postmodern age] is the age of no truth, an age that has reached a point of deadly fatigue when it comes to facing the truth?a generation that no longer believes truth can be known. Dr. John MacArthur knows better, and he is armed with the courage to confront this age with a bold defense of truth. . . . His argument is compelling, his defense of truth is brilliant, and his concern for the church is evident on every page. The evangelical church desperately needs this book, and it arrives just in time." —R. Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Have Faith In God - In a...

Leslie Rendell

Having Faith In God
Having faith is vital for us, but how do we define it? I think we will find the answer in Hebrews 11, the faith chapter. Every one mentioned here simply took God at His word and obeyed His commands. And for this, they were all remembered for their faith. Believing the word of God and acting on what we know is living by faith. Faith is not hoping something will happen, faith is knowing that it will happen.
So now the questions are, “How do we get this faith?” and “How do we increase in faith?” Our faith is not just intellectual knowledge and agreement. It is more than just acknowledging certain facts about Jesus, the Bible, the resurrection or anything else from scripture. It is taking our entire life and making a stand that is based on our confidence in these facts. Genuine faith is life changing.
My aim in this book is to give you a start in your life of “having faith in God”. This will be for you a lifelong pursuit, not something you can do today and then forget about it. No, the road will be long, with many twists and turns along the way. You will inevitably encounter opposition to your newfound faith in God the whole way.
As you grow in faith, there will be some changes to your lifestyle. Some will be only minor changes. Others may be massive as you learn how God wants you to live. But all of them will be not only necessary but worthwhile.
Keeping your eyes and mind on the end goal of being in God’s kingdom will give you the courage to face these troubles.
If you feel the need to find God, to find the way to having faith in God today, then the only place you will find the answers is in the Bible. Please use this book as a stepping stone to your faithful future and may our Almighty God bless you on your way down that road.
