From the beginning of his ministry, Jesus called and equipped individuals who would serve his community of followers. These "shepherds" are called to preach, pray, and care for the needs of God's people. But what does it mean to be a pastor? And what is the nature of this ministry, according to the Bible? In these 10 audio lectures, Jared Wilson begins by looking at the qualifications for the pastorate, addressing the notion of a call to ministry and how an individual—and a church community—can best identify the marks of maturity and affirm a call.

Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, pastored the Metropolitan Tabernacle for 38 years, and spent many of those years in a state of powerful revival. Multitudes came from all over the world to hear him speak. His average Sunday morning services hosted up to six thousand people listening intently to the Word of the Lord. While it is fairly common today to see churches of thousands, in some places there seems to be one on every street corner, back in Spurgeon’s day, it was nothing short of miraculous.

Who needs revival? Every at one time or another will need a least some measure of reviving in their lives. Life has a way of weighing you down and draining your spiritual resources. But David said, there is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God. Revival is not a mystery or a miracle, but revival is God's answer and response to a hungry soul, who will honestly admit that they need a fresh fire and a fresh anointing.

Do you love the Lord? That is an important question! Our Lord, Jesus Christ, asked Peter, “Peter do you love me? Why is your love for God something that we need to discuss? Jesus says the greatest commandment is that you should “love the Lord your God, with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.” Sometimes, there are circumstances thrown together and presented to you by the Lord that are simply tests, tests to prove your love for the Lord. If you love the Lord, prove it by passing the tests of love! Another amazing book by renowned author, Dag Heward-Mills, which ...

Since all are not apostles, God makes the benefit of apostolic ministry available to all by placing an apostolic anointing on other members in the Body. In this book, we will examine individuals who possess an apostolic gift and grace. The individual who possesses an apostolic anointing upon his/her life is referred to as an apostolic person. Apostolic people possess the same characteristics as apostles. They act as disciples, sons (or daughters), and big brothers (or sisters).

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 ...

Preaching is simple. It can be defined as, “Speaking God’s word to people.” However, preaching is also complex. It is both an art and a science. It is both a gift and a task. It will bring out the best or the worse in people. In this primer, Pastor Tim Rupp walks the student-preacher step-by-step how to write and deliver a biblically based expository sermon.

Alcançar a simplicidade na pregação é de extrema importância a todos os ministros que desejam ser úteis às almas. A não ser que você seja simples em seus sermões você nunca vai ser entendido, e se não for compreendido, você não pode fazer o bem aos que lhe ouvem. O ditado de Quintiliano é verdadeiro: "Se você não anseia ser entendido, você é digno de ser esquecido". O primeiro objetivo de um ministro deve ser o de pregar a verdade, toda a verdade, e nada mais que "a verdade como ela é em Jesus".

The messages in this audiobook, were given to brethren from all over Cameroon in Yaoundé at a critical point in the work.

Many young people were beginning to receive ministry gifts and to minister in the churches. There was a need for a fresh look at the ministry and the ministers as revealed in the New Covenant.

I have had the great privilege of sitting under the expository preaching of Steve Cole over the last 27 years. I have benefited greatly from his excellent teaching, as has my church and many around the world who get his sermons regularly over e-mail. Many others listen online or find sermons through the church website, fcfonline.org or bible.org. This compilation of 5 of my personal favorite sermons is designed to direct people interested in good biblical preaching to Steve's sermons, who may not otherwise find them.

The purpose is evangelism. The purpose is always evangelism. Jesus came to “seek and save that which is lost” (Luke 19:10). His last words to His followers, before returning to His Father, were to “make disciples” by teaching, baptizing, and teaching (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15, 16; Luke 24:44-47; Acts 1:8). This book is being printed with the prayer that the contents will be used by many to bring in a great gathering of souls for the Lord. Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers ...
