The second edition of Focus on God is packed with practical teachings aimed at helping the followers of Jesus Christ to totally focus on Jesus and by so doing adopt his lifestyle of sharing His good news. This will help with the current focus on materialistic things that is plaguing the church. The church's primary purpose is that of soul winning. This is the only key to reviving us to change our world for the better. It is very important to be doing the right thing at the right time. It appears majority of churches seems to be doing everything except the primary focus which is becoming more like Jesus Christ and doing what he commanded us to do. The purpose for which the church exists is to fulfill the great commission in winning souls all over the world. This cannot be over emphasised. We are called to be the followers of Jesus to share the good news of salvation. The reason why Jesus has delayed His second coming is to allow all to hear the gospel. How can we give what we do not have? We are given so many other gifts and talents. In this resource, Dr. Andam explains and teaches how focusing on Jesus and obeying Him will help us to fulfill this commission. He has explained and simplified biblical principles that will help to equip us to become the true ambassadors of Jesus. We need our focus to be right with strong faith in Jesus. It is time to talk our walk by living the lifestyle, which reflects that of Jesus. Michael challenges the church to wake up and use the authority and power given to change situations in our world, wherever we find ourselves. This will help with our testimony through our lifestyle and the preaching of the good news. Using many compelling examples from scripture, the emphasis is placed on Bible reading, study and taking action based on the word. Let revival start with you focusing totally on Jesus Christ and living right out for Him daily till the end.

God's Focus on the Fatherless is an excellent thematic study guide offering a fresh perspective to leaders of local churches who desire to be in tune with God's heart for the marginalized within our communities. God's repeated exhortations (i.e., fatherhood, brokenness, compassion, authority, relationship, presence, justice . . .) are brought to the fore in a focused study that will expand the Christian understanding of God's compassionate heart for the least among us. The principles are timeless and presented in a format accessible to leaders and students of the Bible alike. The fresh perspective is sure to cause a greater ownership of ministry in both the local church and the local community. The "fatherless" principles presented will facilitate positive personal and corporate changes in a church's unique ministry setting. Pastor Chaplain Dwight Croy brings his rich Christian upbringing and experience in the pastorate, chaplaincy, and teaching juvenile boys in a residential setting to guide instruction concerning God's address of the fatherless. This study fits nicely into a twelve-week period and is formatted and prepared for teaching in a small group setting. The study will inspire fervent discussion and then move quickly to practical application.

If we want to see God in the midst of our struggles, we have to change the way we look for him. There is no denying that miracles, answers to prayer, and abundant blessings testify to God’s presence. When the desires of our hearts are filled, it’s easy to see him. But what about the seasons when he seems invisible? Scripture tells us God never sleeps, but it is easy to feel like he is not attuned to our needs. Shift explores the life-changing truth that when we adjust our lens to focus our eyes on God rather than on what we wish we were seeing in our lives, he reveals himself to us. In fact, those moments when he seems invisible to us are often when others see him the most in us. When Jesus walked the earth, he looked to God for his earthly needs. Jesus had deep a relationship with the Father that fueled his mission, his purpose, and his effectiveness. Scripture tells us that we can have that too. But there is a shift that needs to take place in our hearts and minds. No matter our circumstances, we can see God in our lives—right here, right now.

Focus on God is a plea to do just that--focus on God. In recent years, many ministers and priests have lost confidence in the value of their work. Many have wondered whether the clergy still have a role in the life of the community. Here is an exciting picture of the minister as a resource person, able to communicate some of the riches of our theological heritage to the new generation of Christians and able to appropriate some of the rewards of scientific and cultural explorations for the nourishment of the life of the church. The minister is seen as the person who can bring together intellect and imagination to enable and interpret a continuing conversation between tradition and present experience. The task of the minister and priest involves, above all, attention to God, and the attempt to help others think about God for themselves.

The Bible reveals glorious things. And yet we often miss its power because we read it the same way we read any other book. In Reading the Bible Supernaturally, best-selling author John Piper teaches us how to read the Bible in light of its divine author. In doing so, he highlights the Bible's unique ability to reveal God to humanity in a way that informs our minds, transforms our hearts, and ignites our love. With insights into the biblical text drawn from decades of experience studying, preaching, and teaching Scripture, Piper helps us experience the transformative power of God's Word—a power that extends beyond the mere words on the page. Ultimately, Piper shows us that in the seemingly ordinary act of reading the Bible, something supernatural happens: we encounter the living God.
