When God's people pray, they want answers. Yet many Christians don't know how to pray both effectively - in a way that gets results - and humbly - in a way that aligns with God's will. Prayer is a powerful weapon against the true adversaries of God's people: principalities, powers, dark rulers and spiritual wickedness in high places. These forces are the perpetrators of all kinds of evil: Addiction, abuse, poverty and spiritual bondage run rampant through families, churches, cities and nations. What can believers do to battle these forces? They can pray. Not just any prayer: the prayer of petition, known throughout Christian history as the prayer that gets results. Prayer of Petition explores this powerful prayer in detail, from the many examples found in God's Word to more recent instances of incredible miracles ushered in by this prayer. Readers will learn the biblical definitions of petition and supplication, and examine the key components of preparation, thanksgiving and humility. As readers learn to petition the Ruler of All, their confidence that God will prevail - no matter what - will grow, and as they learn to rest in His promises, peace will reign over their hearts through the coming revival.

How have the lives of people in your past, inspired lives of faith in your family today? Are there stories you share with family and friends, that demonstrate the loving care of God? This book is a collection of memories that my children requested to have put in writing so that they will not forget. I hope you, too, will be prompted to preserve your family's stories, for the benefit of your own children and grandchildren. Included in this book are principles for living lives of faith, and some parenting suggestions that come from multiple sources. These were also requested by my adult kids. Several are now parents themselves. They find themselves using phrases they remember from our home. Now they want some explanation of their origins and application. I have tried to honor the memory and examples of those who lived before us. This book is also meant to challenge this generation to intentionally invest in the spiritual lives of their children, in order to raise the next generation who will know and live for God. These spiritual investments will become the legacy of faith God asks us to leave. Psalm 145:4 says, "One generation will praise Your works to another, and will declare Your mighty acts." May our faith stories collectively bring much glory to God. Ruth Christenson is a pastor's wife and mother of seven children. She grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where she lived until she graduated college. Ruth spent 27 years as a homeschool mom. She has frequently been asked to share principles of discipleship and parenting to help other parents lead their children to know and love God. Ruth manages a Book and Gift Store at a Christian Conference Center. When free to travel, she loves to spend time with her kids and grandchildren.

What if the way we worship isn't just an expression of our faith, but is what shapes our faith? The Church has believed this about the way we worship and pray together for centuries: The way we worship becomes the way we believe. But if this is true, it’s time to take a closer look at what we say and sing and do each week. Drawing from his own discovery of ancient worship practices, Glenn Packiam helps us understand why the Church made creedal proclamations and Psalm-praying a regular part of their worship. He shares about why the Eucharist was the climactic point of their corporate “re-telling of the salvation story.” When our worship becomes a rich feast, our faith is nourished and no longer anemic. The more our worship speaks of Christ, the more we enter into the mystery of faith.

"A timely and groundbreaking take on the roots of the Christian church and its place in the entirety of God's kingdom. . . . There is no better time than now to learn about and become firmly grounded within your spiritual heritage." —from the foreword by Perry Stone The early church was made up of Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus, and the church's culture was rooted in Judaism and a Jewish understanding of God's relationship to His people. Over time, however, Christianity became increasingly more Roman than Jewish, and the church lost its identity. Rabbi Curt Landry's personal story is remarkably similar. Born to a Jewish mother and a Catholic father, Landry was put up for adoption, and for more than thirty years he had no understanding of his heritage, his roots, or who his parents were. But when he discovered the truth of his story, his life changed completely. The key to a life of power and purpose is understanding who you are. In this revelatory book, Curt Landry helps Christians discover their roots in Judaism, empowering them to walk in the revelation of who they really are and who they are born to be. Reclaiming Our Forgotten Heritage reveals the mysteries of the church, letting Christians grasp the power that comes from connecting with their true identity.

"If you've ever felt the tug to go deeper as a disciple of Christ, dreamt of rebuilding your life with profound peace and wholeness, and yearned for relational renewal within the Christian community, let me take you on a journey through 'A Reconciled Life.' This isn't just a book; it's a pathway to the transformation you've been seeking." A Reconciled Life is about how honoring one's heritage and legacy through pursuing a life of peace and wholeness in Christ, transforms us and makes a difference in our world. God's Holy Spirit has utilized the backdrop of my childhood as a minister's son and the experiences and challenges of my time in pastoral ministry to reveal to me and, subsequently, to engage the broader church with some powerful and thought-provoking insights such as: God has ordained our broken, unredeemed heritage and personal past to be the starting point for our generational transformation. Yahweh has given to those who come into a new covenant relationship with Him-His sons and daughters-the greatest power that exists in eternity and time. We have been given this power to mediate the ministry of reconciliation to each other and the world. Three years before the turmoil of our 2020 moment in history, God was speaking to my heart, revealing powerful understandings concerning His heart for reconciliation in my life, His church, and the world we impact. If you desire a conversation that will engage your thoughts and heart with transformative perspectives and Christ- centered solutions, this book is for you. I trust you will be blessed, challenged, and encouraged by the journey of reading this book as I have in being its scribe. Bishop Terrance Jenkins Church of God (Ret.), Th. D., Ph. D. President and founder of Montreal School of Ministry (Ret.) This work is one of a personal, and yet family, journey through time. From his boyhood as a PK to manhood, marriage, family, and pastoring a congregation, Pastor Morrison shares the joys and the heartaches of pastoring a congregation, which the majority of church attendees do not understand. He shares how when the leader feels God wants to take the congregation in a particular direction, sometimes friction ensues because the people are content where they are. Unless that friction is dealt with biblically, the situation soon becomes toxic... In any case, one cannot unscramble a scrambled egg. The past is the past, and we must move toward the future, looking unto the Author and Finisher of our faith to guide us in the right direction, fulfilling His purpose for us until we reach heaven...Reading this work and sharing my thoughts about it has been a blessing. I recommend that everyone who wants to become involved in the work of the church read it, enjoy it and take note that God can use you in any capacity you choose to allow Him.
