Acts The Holy Spirit at Work
The Holy Spirit at work The Gospel is spreading In this powerful narrative, Luke records specific historical events marking the crucial moments of transition from Jesus’ physical departure from earth (ascension) to the coming of the Holy Spirit to earth, focusing on the commission of the apostles and the beginning of the ministry of the Church of Jesus Christ in spreading the Gospel beyond Jerusalem to the ends of the world.

Leading Beyond
A common cliché states that Sunday is the most racially divided day of the week. Authors have attempted to study the division in church, but it continues to be a perpetual problem for Christianity. The racial divide in Christianity demands continual study and research dedicated to finding answers in the history of the Bible. The book of Acts provides the historical account of the early church’s cultural diversity and the apostles’ leadership to spread the gospel all over the world in the first century. Therefore, it is critical to research the apostles’ leadership, specifically Peter and Paul, to the diversity of the early church following Pentecost in the book of Acts and to apply discovered leadership principles to modern-day church.
Ephraim Radner, Hosean Wilderness, and the Church in the Post-Christendom West
Ephraim Radner, Hosean Wilderness, and the Church in the Post-Christendom West offers the first monograph-length treatment of the compelling and perplexing contemporary Anglican theologian Ephraim Radner. While unravelling his distinctive approach to biblical hermeneutics and ecclesiology, it queries the state of today's secularized church through a theological interpretation of an equally enigmatic writer: the prophet Hosea. It concludes that an eschatological posture of waiting and a heuristic of poesis should dictate the church's shape for an era in which God is stripping the church of its foregoing institutional forms.
Setting Words on Fire
In the second half of the twentieth century, a profound shift took place in how we think about preaching. We moved away from a vertical focus on the preacher who hands down the authoritative teaching, to more relational, narrative, and conversational models. Yet common to both of these understandings, says Paul Scott Wilson, is the idea that preaching is primarily about teaching, that it mainly conveys information about God.Important as this emphasis on preaching as teaching has been, Wilson believes that the time for a new approach has arrived. That new approach, which he names preaching as proclamation, has begun to arise from a variety of Euro-American and African American sources. Its pr...

It needs to be motivated and patiently encouraged. This is my intent for writing this book; that one might grow in their love and touch the world that starving for Godly love. Godly love is not like Man's love; it has no expectations, no paybacks; but given freely without cause. I hope to motivate this Godly love within you. God created the world and made it a world of many colors. He beautified the world the colors of the rainbow. Everything that God created was colored to his perfection; including man. Man does not see the things created by God as perfect as they were created, because man only visualize with his eyes. God expected man to visualize the beauty that he created with all of his senses; including his spiritual sense; his heart.
