Summary

Leadership Principles for Pastors and Leaders Navigating the Challenges of Pastoral Ministry
The church is experiencing a leadership crisis. For every celebrity pastor exiting in the spotlight, there are hundreds of lesser-known pastors leaving in the shadows. Why are so many pastors leaving the ministry? Bestselling author Paul David Tripp suggests that lurking behind the failure of a pastor is a weak leadership community.
Turning to Scripture for guidance, Tripp presents readers with 12 leadership-community principles necessary for a gospel-centered leadership model. Here is a book with a message for those new to ministry as well as those experienced in it—God's abiding presence is your hope in leadership. 

- Perfect for Pastors and Church Leaders: Presents a church-leadership model that is informed by the gospel of Jesus Christ
- Practical: Highlights 12 principles for leadership: achievement, gospel, limits, balance, character, war, servants, candor, identity, restoration, longevity, and presence
- Now with Study Questions: Use these prompts to reflect on each chapter alone or in a small-group setting 
Available since: 01/08/2025.

    "Sister, it couldn't have happened! It was all a dream, like the other time," the priest declared. But Sister Catherine was sure she had truly seen Our Lady…and then Our Lady appeared to her again! Would the priest ever believe her? Would he ever have the Medals made as Our Lady had asked? This wonderful story captures what happened when the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to St. Catherine Laboure and the beginning of the Miraculous Medal. 
Mary Fabyan Windeatt was known as “the storyteller of the saints.” In the 1950s and 60s, she wrote over twenty historical fiction novels on the saints, bringing to life these holy men and women for young readers across the world. By artistically rendering familiar stories, the Windeatt books help readers see that the saints are real people whom we can emulate. 
This title is ideal for all children, especially those enrolled in TAN Academy in kindergarten through third grades for easy-reading literature.

    Arcana - A taste of Deity Worship

    An experience in Arcana - Deity Worship @Mayapur Academy is concluded On the last note of our beloved Gurudeva, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami, I was able to swim in the ocean of mercy of Śrī Guru and Gauranga, here in Śrī Māyāpur Dhāma. Śrīla Prabhupāda started worshipping Gaura-Nitai in Māyāpur and instructed his dear disciples to do the same. Jananivas Prabhu took up the service and soon instructed others. It is 2024. We have experienced everything that Māyāpur has to offer. We served behind the curtains to give blissful Darshan of Their Lordships Radha-Madhava Asta-Sakhi, Panca-Tattva & Prahlad-Narasimha-Deva. We danced and chanted extensively in the worlds birthplace of Harinam Sankirtan, and hopefully we tasted a little bit of that Nectar that Gaura-Nitai has to offer. I can only speak for myself, as these four months of International Arcana Diploma course have been deeply transformative and purifying through Sadhu Sanga, Kirtana, Prasadam, Parikramas and the service within the Deity Worship department. Actually, every school day was a profound experience of devotional service, and certainly everyone was blessing us with more nectar. We received so much in the form of wisdom, given by the Acaryas and foremost Śrīla Prabhupāda. We received direct blessings from His Divine Grace‘s disciples and grand disciples like HG Jananivas Prabhu, HG Kurma Caitanya Prabhu, HG Kṛṣṇa Kantha Prabhu and many more. Also, we received tools to be practically clean and ready for first-class Deity Worship. Hereby, I would like to invite all of my friends, devotees of the Lord, to do the same and come to Māyāpur for this rare opportunity. It is serious indeed, it is intense and surely it is a wonderful way to come closer to Radha-Kṛṣṇa, Gaura-Nitai and the transcendental mellow of devotional service.

    Can any good come from thinking about death? Our natural tendency is to answer that question no! But what if our meditation on death was informed by a theological understanding of death, a recognition of the comfort Jesus's death affords Christians, and ethical guidance for dealing with death in these complicated days of modern medical developments? Rather than being morbidly unhelpful, authors Joel R. Beeke and Christopher W. Bogosh contend that meditating on dying and death can be profitable, even necessary, for us. Are you prepared to say that your death will be "gain" (Phil. 1:21)?
