Summary

Peaceful Authority Style explores Jesus' revolutionary approach to leadership, contrasting it with traditional power structures built on dominance. This book examines how Jesus, as a peace leader, challenged the socio-political norms of first-century Palestine, advocating for non-violence, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Instead of wielding power through force, Jesus demonstrated authority through compassion and service, exemplified by his healing of the sick and his teachings on love.

 
The book begins by introducing key concepts like servant leadership and transformative peace, systematically unveiling Jesus' alternative leadership paradigm across chapters. It analyzes gospel accounts where Jesus rejects violence, highlights instances of compassion, and delves into his teachings on forgiveness. The crucifixion is presented as the ultimate demonstration of non-violence and sacrificial love.

 
This study offers a fresh perspective on leadership, suggesting that true authority stems from moral strength rather than coercion. By analyzing scriptural passages within their historical context, Peaceful Authority Style provides valuable insights for those interested in Biblical studies, Christian theology, and anyone seeking to integrate faith-based principles of peace leadership into their lives.

    There is no greater study than that of God himself. 
     
    · Understand how our doctrine of God fuels worship 
    · Learn the biblical basis for classical Christian theism 
    · Respond to traditional Christian theism's critics  
     
    The goal of doctrine is worship, so our doctrine of God is resolutely practical. What we believe about God fuels the life and worship of the church. 
     
    In Classical Theism: A Christian Introduction, Jordan L. Steffaniak retrieves the rich, historical doctrine of God that has guided the church throughout the ages. Classical theism fuels the life and worship of the church. But sometimes it is misunderstood as abstract and unwelcome―owing more to pagan philosophy than the words of the Bible. Steffaniak grounds classical theism in Scripture as guided by creeds and tradition. Steffaniak writes with a pastoral goal―understanding the God we worship.

    We've all been there—feeling stuck, frustrated, and wondering why things just don't feel okay. No matter how much we try, we can't seem to shake the same destructive habits, anxious thoughts, and hidden insecurities. What if the real problem isn't what we're doing but what we're believing? What if, underneath it all, we've been living from a core lie, one that has quietly shaped our identity, our relationships, and even how we see God? 
    In The Lie You Don't Know You Believe Bible Study, we will trace the wilderness temptation of Christ alongside the three lies Jennie has discerned every person believes at their core. We will see how Jesus was not tempted to listen to the lies of the enemy, but through his example, we can learn how to identify the lies and then how to fight them. 
    If you've ever wondered if freedom is possible, it is. And it starts here.

As a revival historian, the author through the use of detailed research, eye-witness accounts and interviews, presents some of the most potent revivals that the world has seen in the past one hundred and fifty years and tells the stories of those who lived through these spiritual awakenings and moves of the Holy Spirit which were days of heaven on earth! 
    Read about the Prayer Meeting Revival that reverberated around the world, the Gold Coast Revival on the west coast of Africa, the Azusa Street Revival that ushered in the modern Pentecostal movement or the Pyongyang Great Revival where the Korean church, which was less than a generation old, swept the country! 
    In every chapter, there are valuable lessons that can be learnt, alongside educational and inspiring conclusions that can be drawn from each historical account of revival.

    The author makes many references to other lesser known revivals and brings facts to life through the use of detailed descriptions, statistics, interviews and eye-witness accounts; coupled with his broad and extensive knowledge of revival church history makes this book informative, and a truly inspirational read.
