If you preach God’s Word, you long to do so with the same scriptural philosophy and spiritual power that marked the preaching of the apostle Paul. In one brief New Testament passage, Paul explains the unique source of his power. In first-century Corinth, the Greeks highly prized and even idolized the ability to speak intelligently and eloquently. Unfortunately, many in the church in Corinth had embraced those secular standards, even causing serious division in the church.

The book benefits anyone who desires an approach to preaching that gets at listeners' felt needs. What we have been taught about preaching and our chosen approach to preaching may not serve us or our listeners well. Thus, the preacher's fidelity to an ineffective approach to preaching lies at the heart of the problem. This book helps preachers resolve this issue with life-situation preaching, an approach that begins with listeners' needs. Herein listeners will experience the power of life-situation preaching to address the spiritual and practical problems--challenges, struggles, and unique experiences--African-Americans face daily.

In this book, we will briefly discuss the gifts and ministries of the Spirit of God, their functions, and how to recognize them in operation. God gives the Church gifts to benefit everyone.

The operation of the Spirit of God and His gifts/ministries among believers testifies to the presence of God in the Church.

The spiritual darkness of our day can indeed be turned back.

Le véritable pouvoir de la prédication, c’est-à-dire le pouvoir qui produit un vrai réveil et qui transforme les vies, vient de Dieu seul.

Lawson, pasteur d’expérience et excellent vulgarisateur de la Bible, examine le modèle de prédication que Paul nous présente dans 1 Corinthiens 2.1-9.

Former seasoned pastor, Christopher Ash, urges church members to think about pastors not just in terms of what they do, how they lead and pray and preach and teach and so on, but also about who they are.

During almost forty years of ordained ministry, and many years before, I have found myself the object of humorous situations, at least, as I viewed them, in which I am continually reminded that God has a sense of humor. I am convinced that God must have a sense of humor to have created the likes of me! Several years ago, while on a sabbatical from my parish duties, I had a unique opportunity to pause, reflect and compose these humorous true incidents. My intention at the time was to compile these stories and self-publish them to share with my family and friends. However, I put this project ...

Christ is the central figure of Christianity. It follows that He is also the central figure of Christian Scripture. As such, all Scripture testifies of Him. This point is almost unanimously accepted among Evangelicals. The disagreements begin to appear when we discuss how Scripture testifies of Christ. This is particularly true concerning the Old Testament. In his book, Preaching Christ from the Old Testament, Pastor Brad Creech examines three popular approaches. They are the “First Testament Priority Approach”, the “Redemptive-Historical, Christocentric Approach”, and the “...
