The Westminster Catechism tells us "The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever". This has been Marilyn's life-long passion! Her own faith journey, filled with both disappointment and pain, adventure and joy, has informed her experiences as a mother, grandmother, counselor and friend. As a counselor she has listened to many stories of fear and helplessness, even hopelessness and despair; as a Bible teacher, she has thrilled to see the truths of scripture come alive in hearts that surrendered those feelings to God! This book is an accumulation of God-thoughts, compiled from her morning devotions. For those who already have a relationship with Jesus Christ, Creator, Messiah, Savior, these meditations will enhance their walk with God. For those who are suffering from pain and sorrow, stress and anxiety, it is Marilyn's hope that God will speak comfort and lift the spirits of those who need to know a solution can be found in Him.

Field Meds provides you with a beautiful illustration of your inner treasure, found within the confines of your “field” or soul. Randall Welner observes that as the caretaker of your soul, when you address challenges, you can reap rewards—just as though you were an organic farmer. The caretaker of the field must cut fallen timber into movable chunks, remove the lumber, and regrade and restore the field’s drainage to a viable condition. If this isn’t done, the damaged property will cease to be productive. Just as important as the above, however, is after tending to the field, the caretaker can use downed tree limbs and other debris from the field to build something useful. While the effort to do all this can be immense, as the caretaker of your soul, you can focus on the areas you want to improve the most. Engage in the growth available to you, aware of your values and weakness, while benefiting from meditation in and on God’s word with the insights in this disciplined approach to Christian meditation.

From the author: This collection was gathered out of my personal need to communicate with the Lord. By creating banners and writing corresponding mediations, I reaffirm my beliefs and I am strengthened. Two themes sound out loud and clear to me from praying to Our Father as I have created this book; simply, GOD IS DEFINITELY LOVE and HE DOES HAVE A UNIQUE PURPOSE FOR EACH ONE OF US. It is my hope that you know Him personally. I wish for you a growing faith! By mediating on a banner design, we can focus on listening to Our Father. Ordinary Christian symbolism is used to draw the spectator into communion with God. He has so much to say to each one of us. Christian banners are but one of the many, many ways He tries to get our attention. My creative gifts help lead me along my journey in life. For me, art and faith go hand-in-hand. Everything beautiful and of lasting value comes from God. My husband and I reside in Ruston, Louisiana, where we are members of The Episcopal Church of the Redeemer.

How does one determine the readiness of any candidate for leadership in ministry? Whether considering vocational ministry leadership or a position on a local board of elders or deacons, without question, knowledge and skills are essential. But an individual's readiness for leadership and ministry cannot be assessed solely on the basis of academic transcripts or impressive statistics found in a pastor or lay leader's annual report. While embracing knowledge and skill as essential to effective leadership and ministry, the author demonstrates how these dimensions are inadequate unless rooted in that which is less quantifiable, namely, heart-readiness. But what does heart-readiness entail or look like in the life of a leader in ministry? In a word that is grossly overused and profoundly misunderstood, love--and more specifically, love for the right things, in the right way, for the right reasons. This book is intended for those being trained in the bible college or seminary classroom but also for lay leaders already engaged in virtually any ministry context as well. Readers are encouraged to consider and cultivate four essential loves: love for God's Word, for Christ's church, for one's neighbor, and for oneself.
