A lifelong pursuit of knowing God should embody the Christian's existence. According to eminent theologian J.I. Packer, however, Christians have become enchanted by modern skepticism and have joined the "gigantic conspiracy of misdirection" by failing to put first things first. Knowing God aims to redirect our attention to the simple, deep truth that to know God is to love His Word.

Small Church Essentials is for leaders of smaller congregations. It encourages them to steward their role well, debunking myths about small churches while offering principles for leading a dynamic, healthy small church. Based on the popular six-hour lecture that Karl Vaters delivers to church leaders across the country, Small Church Essentials will affirm small church leaders and show them how to identify what they do well and how to do it even better.

Very helpful advice from a pastor who has experienced the ups and downs of shepherding a small church. My church is about 20 people and the recommendation to keep it simple, focus on the essentials and prioritize mentoring is a relief.

Good preaching begins with good exegesis. Preaching God's Word: Audio Lectures provides lessons featuring Professors Terry Carter, Scott Duvall, and Daniel Hays, who walk you through the steps of the "Interpretive Journey", from the biblical text to contemporary application. Carter, Duvall, and Hays also tells listeners how to understand their audience, develop powerful applications, use illustrations well, and deliver sermons effectively.

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) is American's greatest theologian and philosopher. One of the key figures in the 'Great Awakening,' he entered Yale at 12 and was head tutor at 21. Edwards pastored congregations for over 30 years and earned a reputation as a consummate rhetorician and master preacher. Shortly after becoming President of Princeton University he died of complications from a smallpox inoculation. He is buried in Princeton cemetery.

For believers and unbelievers
Reviewed: 01-25-19
The guts it would take to preach this message is on par with the OT Prophets. Believers can get a deeper comprehension of what they have escaped through the wrath absorbing atonement of Jesus Christ who gave Himself a ransom for many which should lead to greater thankfulness, gratitude and humility. Unbelievers will hopefully be awakened to the reality that it is appointed unto men once to die and then the judgment, why face certain judgment when salvation from it is a free gift of Gods Grace in Christ.
