Preachers mount the pulpit steps terribly burdened by the conviction that they are somehow responsible for the growth and spiritual well-being of their congregants. How, they ask themselves, can mere words communicate the reality of God, bring life to a congregation, or foster spiritual growth? This study argues that effective sermons function much like Jesus' parables--by bearing witness to divine power. Parables and preaching both testify to something beyond themselves: to a life-giving dynamic that far outstrips the force of words alone. Preachers are not go-betweens or gatekeepers for the kingdom of heaven: rather, they imitate Jesus by dying to themselves in the very act of proclamation, relying directly on God for their sermons to bear fruit. As well as offering a novel interpretation of Jesus' agricultural parables, Of Seeds and the People of God presents a Christ-shaped theology of preaching. Beyond exegesis or rhetoric alone, faithful proclamation is a question of spirituality, of preachers and listeners together yielding to God's gift of new life.

Witness Lee speaks of the church in The Practical Expression of the Church, not only from the viewpoint of God’s eternal purpose, which is the church triumphant and universal, but also from the viewpoint of the believers’ experience and enjoyment of the riches of Christ, which produces a local expression of the church, an expression that displays the oneness of the Body of Christ and brings in God’s commanded blessing (Psalm 133).

Since the first century, Christians have detected "seeds of the Word" in the surrounding culture. No matter how charred or distorted the fragments, we can always uncover inklings of the Gospel, which can then lead people to God. Through this evocative collection of essays, Bishop Robert Barron finds those "seeds" in today's most popular films, books, and current events. How do Superman, Gran Torino, and The Hobbit illuminate the figure of Jesus? How does Bob Dylan convey the prophetic overtones of Jeremiah and Isaiah? Where can we detect the ripple of original sin in politics, sports, and the Internet culture? Finding the "seeds of the Word" requires a new vision. This book will train you to see.

This book demonstrates, through the full text of the scriptures, that women have the same God-given rights as men to preach, teach, and serve in the same offices of the church as men, doing everything spiritually that men do according to the leading of the Holy Spirit. The apostle Paul wrote, And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh in all But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as He will (1 Cor. 12:6, 11). It also shows that the opposition against the women that are called to preach and teach the word of God is a calculated plan that is instigated by Satan to prevent them from fulfilling the will of God.

Radically transform your financial position in life to one of abundance and prosperity by discovering the hidden financial secrets of God's economy. After receiving revelation from the Lord in October 2006, I discovered why I wasn't prospering as promised in the Bible. My beliefs were based upon my personal experiences rather than the word of God. I discovered I wasn't using all the talents that God created within me. These hidden talents are the seeds to our financial and business success. The Lord revealed to me that I should be living in God's economy of abundance and that my finances are not meant to be tied to the world's economic system. I was challenged to transform the way I think and learn to apply the principles of abundance in generating a 30-fold, 60-fold and 100-fold return. Once my eyes were opened to this revelation the Lord began to reveal opportunities to me. For further details visit my web site at www.harvestwells.com Lou Galloway lives in Hobart, Australia with his wife Sandra. They have two daughters, two son-in-laws, a son and two grandsons. Lou has spent over 15 years in ministry, including many overseas missionary excursions. Lou has a diploma in Christian Ministries and a Batchelor of Computing degree. Lou is currently involved in developing business projects within the mission field and has a vision to expand this concept on a much larger scale.
