Help! I'm a Pastor!
Richard Armstrong and Kirk Morledge present this practical guide for pastoral ministry, offering counsel about a wide range of topics related to a pastor's professional ministry and personal life. Topics include beginning a new ministry, balancing one's personal life and ministry, wrestling with conflict, worrying about church finances, and preaching. This introduction to ministry can function as a textbook as well as an invaluable handbook or desk reference for pastors in the midst of congregational ministry.
A Sense of Being Called
Dick Armstrong was thoroughly committed to his promising future as a major league baseball front-office executive until something happened that completely changed his life and steered him in a totally new direction. In A Sense of Being Called, Armstrong tells the story of what he calls his "Damascus Road" experience, an awesome encounter with the God he had always believed in but had never given the slightest thought to serving. The dramatic theophany initiated a remarkable pilgrimage of faith in which he and his supportive wife, Margie, learned how God guides, provides for, and equips those who respond to the divine call. What the unbelieving world would label coincidence Dick and Margie vi...
Service Evangelism
Service Evangelism has been used by thousands of pastors and lay leaders throughout the United States and Canada to advance a style of evangelism that combines the social and personal dimensions of the gospel.
The Pastor as Evangelist
From a minister, professor, and recognized leader in the field of evangelism comes a challenge to pastors to take a new look at their mission. Richard Stall Armstrong invites pastors to put on "evangelistic glasses" to perceive what it means to be a pastor-evangelist in terms of personal relationships and in light of the various factors that define evangelism. Clearly and compellingly, Armstrong shows how to take the responsibility for evangelism seriously. He analyzes in a concrete way the many contexts of evangelism--the difference between witnessing to the young and the old, to individuals and groups, on the telephone or on television. He counsels pastors to adopt not a particular method but rather a style that is nondogmatic, that blends consistency with flexibility, and, above all, one that reflects the integrity and power of the Christian message. Biblically based, theologically sound, and vocationally relevant, this book is full of useful ideas and practical suggestions that will benefit pastors, professors, and seminarians.
Are You Really Free?
Richard Armstrong's Are You Really Free? could not have come out at a more timely moment. For the first time in our history Americans face global terror in our own homeland. For the first time they seriously wonder, can we still be "the land of the free"? In nineteen short chapters, written in clear, readable English, Dr. Armstrong explains what freedom really is and what Christian faith can do to preserve it. His book is timely, but not written for these times only. It takes the past and the present seriously. It tells stories. It reflects and analyzes. But best of all it holds out hope for real freedom in a world that will not always be free from trouble but will no longer be held captive ...
The Pastor-evangelist in Worship
The role of the pastor as worship leader and preacher takes on additional significance when viewed in the context of evangelism. Building on the foundation laid in his earlier book The Pastor as Evangelist, Richard Stoll Armstrong provides practical, down-to-earth guidance for the minister who wants to participate more fully in the church's mission of evangelism.
The Pastor-Evangelist in the Parish
Accomplished author Richard Stoll Armstrong speaks openly and honestly about how a pastor functions with evangelical sensitivity in the roles of visitor, counselor, teacher, discipler, administrator, and public figure. He describes the specific opportunities for evangelism in each of these functions. Ways are suggested in which pastors can lead conversations and group or class meetings that open up opportunities for discussion of faith questions.
