Lost Art Of Disciple Making
$14.9912 Chapters
Additional Info
But all too often the opportunity isn’t there. We neglect the young Christian in our whirl of programs, church services, and fellowship groups. And we neglect to raise up workers and leaders who can disciple young believers into mature and fruitful Christians. In simple. practical, and biblical terms, LeRoy Eims revives the lost art of disciple making. He explains:
* How the early church discipled new Christians
* How to meet the basic needs of a growing Christian
* How to spot and train potential workers
* How to develop mature, godly leaders“True growth takes time and tears and love and patience,” Eims states. There is no instant maturity. This book examines the growth process in the life of a Christian and considers what nurture and guidance it takes to develop spiritually qualified workers in the church.

Last Things A Print On Demand Title
$17.99Scriptural prophecies about the end times have been the subject of a great number of books. Many of them, however, are popularized accounts containing little thoughtful biblical scholarship. Yet the serious studies available are often too difficult for the average reader to understand. George Eldon Ladd has endeavored to rectify this situation with a serious discussion of eschatology written for the layperson.
Two radically different interpretations of the relationship between the prophecies of the Old and New Testaments have been offered. One view sees separate programs for Israel and the Christian church, while the other recognizes progressive revelation and a unity of the Testaments.
Professor Ladd holds the latter position, basing his doctrine of the last things on the conviction that “our final word . . . is to be found in the New Testament reinterpretation of Old Testament prophecy.” Only as the prophecies are seen in the light of God’s revelation through Christ can we clearly comprehend what they mean in relation to the end times.

Types In Genesis
$29.99Manufactured On Demand Title
Andrew Jukes presents a fscinating look at the many figures of spiritual truth in the book of Genesis. He shows that these figures contain spiritual insights for Christian living and for understanding the ways of God more fully. In the preface Jukes states,”Many are aware that the Books of Moses deal largely in typical representations, that is, figures of spiritual things, both facts and doctrines, of the Christian dispensation. We cannot read St. Paul without percieving that he saw far more in Genesis than a mere letter.”
The Rev. David M. Jones observes that Types in Genesis “is not to be examined for history…It is spiritual. It’s the reading of events and applying to them also a spiritual meaning. Types In Genesis, at this level, has no rival in my library.”
Here is a book with spiritual warmth and depth. The pastor, student, and layperson alike will find many helpful insights in this classic work.

Minister As Diagnostician
$24.00Persons with personal problems often turn to their ministers for help. What kind of help do they hope to get that, rightly or wrongly, they do not expect from other professionals (psychiatrists, counselors, psychologists, or social workers)? The answer this book gives is that they want to be addressed in the terms and symbols of their faith, by authoritative standard-bearers of their faith.
The minister has the responsibility–and ability–to meet this particular need, says Dr. Prayser. Here he answers such questions as: How should ministers proceed to help? On what grounds should they make or receive referrals? What do they think troubled counselees want from them? What kind of personal knowledge and skill should they have in order to help? Are pastoral views and pastoral interventions unique?
Dr. Pruyser explores, in depth, the first step in the helping process: the diagnostic assessment of the problem-laden person. The diagnoses that the minister makes cannot be medical or psychiatric, says Dr. Pruyser. Rather they must be derived from the ministers own theological thought and a particular kind of awareness on the part of the counselee He develops a set of guidelines for conducting pastoral-diagnostic interviews that both acknowledges the pastors professional uniqueness and meets the parishoners expectations.

Speaking In Parables
$40.00Too many times theology becomes abstract and systematic, and therefore is not effective at spreading the gospel. For McFague, Jesus’ parables and the stories, poems, and confessions of many early Christians should be our models of how to spread the good news. By examining common writing traditions, McFague shows how the Great Commission can be better served.

Letters To Timothy Titus And Philemon
$35.00This volume of The Daily Study Bible series will be especially welcomed because the four New Testament books included in it are too often neglected in favor of those which deal more directly with the development of doctrine. Actually, the two letters to Timothy and those to Titus and Philemon posses an interest that is quite unique to church people of today. I and II Timothy and Titus, which are known as the Pastoral Epistles, deal with extremely practical matters of church management and personal conduct: morals and decorum, the necessity for preserving the faith in all its purity, the combating of heresy, the place of women in the church, clothing, church organization and the functions of officers in church government, the proper handling of money. The little book of Philemon is the only private letter of Paul that we possess. It tells the romantic story of the runaway slave Onesimus, who as Dr. Barclay shows, may have become, some fifty years laer, the great bishop of Ephesus. As in other volumes of the series the passages are broken up into units for convenient daily reading, each unit consisting of translation and commentary. As his millions of readers know, Dr. Barclay is a remarkable writer, combining profound scholarship, mastery of New Testament Greek, wide acquaintance with secular literature upon which he draws freely, deep personal devotion, and a gracious informal style.

Gospel Of Mark (Revised)

THE GOSPEL OF MARK“When we study the Gospel According to Saint Mark,” declares Dr. Barclay, “we study the most important book in the New Testament, for in it we have the first life of Jesus ever to be written,” the one on which all other accounts are based. In his introduction, Dr. Barclay explains why the first three Gospels are called synoptic, how they came to be written, and how scholars have concluded that Mark was the first. Touching on Mark’s own life, he discusses the rift that Mark occasioned between Paul and Barnabas, Mark’s sources of information about Jesus, the characteristics of his Gospel writing, and the mystery of the “lost ending.”

Basic Principles Of Biblical Counseling
$24.99“The local church should and can successfully assume responsibility within its ranks for restoring troubled people to full, productive, creative lives.” “If we are to hope for success in such immense and seriously neglected responsibility, pastors need to return to the biblical model not of ministering to their people but of equipping their people to minister to each other by using their spiritual gifts.” “Congregations need to regain that wonderful sense of ‘koinonia’ fellowship and pro practice true community.”

Theological Dictionary Of The Old Testament Volume 2
$78.99This multivolume work is still proving to be as fundamental to Old Testament studies as its companion set, the Kittel-Friedrich Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, has been to New Testament studies.
Beginning with ‘abh (‘ab), “father,” and continuing through the alphabet, the TDOT volumes present in-depth discussions of the key Hebrew and Aramaic words in the Old Testament. Leading scholars of various religious traditions (including Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, Greek Orthodox, and Jewish) and from many parts of the world (Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States) have been carefully selected for each article by editors Botterweck, Ringgren, and Fabry and their consultants, George W. Anderson, Henri Cazelles, David Noel Freedman, Shemaryahu Talmon, and Gerhard Wallis.
The intention of the writers is to concentrate on meaning, starting from the more general, everyday senses and building to an understanding of theologically significant concepts. To avoid artificially restricting the focus of the articles, TDOT considers under each keyword the larger groups of words that are related linguistically or semantically. The lexical work includes detailed surveys of a word’s occurrences, not only in biblical material but also in other ancient Near Eastern writings. Sumerian, Akkadian, Egyptian, Ethiopic, Ugaritic, and Northwest Semitic sources are surveyed, among others, as well as the Qumran texts and the Septuagint; and in cultures where no cognate word exists, the authors often consider cognate ideas.
TDOT’s emphasis, though, is on Hebrew terminology and on biblical usage. The contributors employ philology as well as form-critical and traditio-historical methods, with the aim of understanding the religious statements in the Old Testament. Extensive bibliographical information adds to the value of this reference work.
This English edition attempts to serve the needs of Old Testament students without the linguistic background of more advanced scholars; it does so, however, without sacrificing the needs of the latter. Ancient scripts (Hebrew, Greek, etc.) are regularly transliterated in a readable way, and meanings of foreign words are given in many cases where the meanings might be obvious to advanced scholars. Where the Hebrew text versification differs from that of English Bibles, the English verse appears in parentheses. Such features

This volume by an internationally know New Testament scholar and historian offers a concise history of the complex and often obscure period, from the Jewish exile to the completion of the New Testament writings and the onset of the age of martyrs, which was of such crucial significance for Judaism and Christianity. The author’s attention is concentrated on the political, social and religious factors in this period. Beginning with the period in which Judea was under Persian rule, from which much of the religion and cultural heritage of Judaism derives, the author goes on to describe the process of hellenization that occurred after the conquest of Alexander the Great when Persian rule came to an end. The major portion of the book is devoted to the New Testament era proper, when Palestine was under Roman domination. Finally, the author traces the events which led to the ultimate divorce of Christianity and Judaism.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Real Satan : From Biblical Times To The Present
$30.00James Kallas presents the real Satan by examining who Satan is in both Old and New Testaments.
Many will want to scoff at the idea that Satan exists at all, precisely because their image of Satan is relegated to the ways in which he is depicted, particularly in the New Testament. There, Satan’s presence caused people to be blind, deaf, lame, as well as to foam at the mouth, scream out obscenities, and roll in the fire.
Others will take Satan’s power too seriously by making too much of his power, as if Satan is even more powerful than Jesus Christ.
James Kallas presents a balanced study of the ways in which Satan is manifest in such contemporary places and activities as drug and alcohol abuse, atheism, and in satanic worship.
The Real Satan uniquely and seriously addresses Satan’s presence and power, yet with even more seriousness this book points to the assurance that Jesus Christ is victorious over Satan and all evil powers.
