Embracing the Kingdom’s Blueprint


Book Description

The word Disciple in Greek is transliterated mathetes (literally, the learning one) and is derived from the verb manthano which means “to learn”. It means “one who learns instruction from another‟, or a disciple is likened to an apprentice who learns from his master tradesman. Thus, a disciple is someone who gains knowledge from the teacher and acts upon it. This series offers a deeper insight into how to be a disciple, therefore, it offers a blueprint of what it means to follow the Lord. It is about embracing God’s Kingdom, His will, His way and His truth.




Embracing the Kingdom’s Blueprint Part Two


Book Description

We are all called to be active in the Kingdom of God, fulfilling the Great Commission. We are all called to be disciples of God, and we all have a calling and have been empowered with gifts and abilities to establish the Kingdom of God in the hearts of man. Jesus showed us the blueprint of how to be a disciple. We are all, and not a few, called to follow this blueprint in accordance to the Great Commission, within various functions as the royal priesthood. Today we sadly sit with so mostly inactive disciples because of wrong teachings, thus disciples who believe they are not called to minister at all! It is time for all disciples to become true servants worth the salt and light in our corporate effort to proclaim the Good News far and wide so that God may be glorified and the lost saved.




God's Blueprint


Book Description

From the co-author of the international bestseller Who Built the Moon? comes this well-researched scientific study of the possibility of a divine creator – or God This book puts the idea of God on trial. Whilst the case has been hotly disputed over recent generations with scientists on one side and theologians on the other, evidence either way has been thin on the ground. Faith - belief without evidence - has been the basis for the world's major religions. Most scientists reject the notion of God because they require factual, empirical evidence in order to accept any proposition as being real. However, new information has become available, which appears to provide hard-nosed evidence of God's existence. Can faith be replaced by understanding, and can scientists formally embrace, once again, the concept of a supreme being as they did in Isaac Newton's day? Nothing less than God's 'blueprint' appears to have been discovered - found by chance by the author while researching the science of the Neolithic (late Stone Age) people of western Europe. The case will be tried taking the evidence step-by-step. You, the reader, are the jury. You must evaluate the evidence as the proceedings develop and, to aid you, there will be a brief summing up at the end of each section.At the close of the book you are asked to make a judgment as to whether the case is proven or not. Does God exist?

Embracing the Journey


Book Description

A sympathetic, compassionate, and inspiring guide for parents—from the founders of one of the first Christian ministries for parents of LGBTQ children. Greg and Lynn McDonald had never interacted with members of the LGBTQ community until they discovered that their son was gay. Without resources or support, they had no idea how to come to terms with this discovery. At first they tried to “fix” him, to no avail. But even in the earliest days of their journey, the McDonalds clung to two absolutes: they would love God, and they would love their son. “An essential resource for Christian parents of LGBTQ kids,” (Matthew Vines, Executive Director of The Reformation Project) this book follows the McDonald family’s journey over the next twenty years, from a place of grief to a place of gratitude and acceptance that led the McDonalds to start one of the first Christian ministries for parents of LGBTQ children. Based on their experience from counseling and coaching hundreds of struggling Christian parents, they offer tools for understanding your own emotional patterns and spiritual challenges. They also help you experience a deeper relationship with God while handling difficult or unexpected situations that are out of your control. You will discover tested principles, patterns, and spiritual lessons that can change the way we all see our families, and help Christians at large think through Christ-like ways to respond to the LGBTQ community. Written in an unvarnished, honest, reassuring, and relatable voice, this is a practical guide for parents and a roadmap to learning to love God, the people He created, and the church, even when they seem to be at odds.




The Eternal Blueprint


Book Description

What is God's ultimate intention? Ask most Christians this question, and you'll likely hear something like this: To save us, to glorify Himself, or to make disciples of Jesus in the nations.But what if there is something deeper? What if God has a master plan, a blueprint from which He operates, that has been hidden from many believers for centuries? The apostle Paul unveiled this mysterious plan almost 2,000 years ago in the book of Ephesians, but unfortunately, it has become a mystery once again in the church. If you've ever felt a sense of unrest over the often-shallow, man-centered modern approach to Christianity, you know there must be more. And there is. God has an ultimate intention, an original plan and purpose from which we've strayed . . . and we need to find our way back.As you will see in The Eternal Blueprint, the way back begins with rediscovering God's eternal purpose, which has driven the ages of history and will drive the eternal ages to come. Before creation, before the garden, and before the fall, the triune God had a vision for the world-a vision that includes you. What's the purpose of life? Where do you fit into God's plans for the world? For eternity? When you discover God's original intention, you will find your true purpose and meaning in life. When you understand the magnificent plan that God established before the foundation of the world, you will know the reason why you were created.As The Eternal Blueprint explains, God has issued you the invitation of a lifetime . . . literally. You were created to be the Father's, the Son's, and the Spirit's eternal inheritance. Once you understand this life-transforming truth, which is at the center of God's eternal purpose, you will never be the same.
