Book Description

"Preach the Word...in season and out of season..." 'Grace in Season: The Riches of the Gospel in Seventy Sermons' joyfully fulfills these words of St. Paul. This matchless collection of Archbishop J. Augustine Di Noia's preaching, alive with the wisdom of the Dominican tradition, the Church Fathers, and the Communion of Saints, opens Sacred Scripture and shows forth the unchanging glory of the Good News. The light of that glory illuminates every season of human life, revealing the loving hand of God's providence at work in both the extraordinary events and the ordinary moments of salvation history. A ready and refreshing tonic for those who thirst for the living water of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, 'Grace in Season' also provides for other preachers, as Aquinas Guilbeau, O.P., writes in his Foreword, "a model for gently but effectively subjecting the vain restlessness of the world to the merciful restlessness of the Word." --

Book Description

The Pastoral Letters—1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, and Titus—have made an enduring contribution to understanding the role of pastors in the church. With a spirited devotion to the text, Robert Yarbrough helps unlock the meaning of these short but rich letters in this commentary. In keeping with the character of Pillar New Testament Commentary volumes, The Letters to Timothy and Titus offers a straightforward reading of these texts. Their primary concerns—God, salvation, and the pastoral task—remain central to Yarbrough’s thorough and comprehensive exegesis. Engaging with the best scholarship and resources, Yarbrough shows how these letters are as relevant today as they were to the early Christians.

Book Description

“God has appointed preaching in worship as one great means of accomplishing his ultimate goal in the world.” —John Piper John Piper makes a compelling claim in these pages about the purpose of preaching: it is intended not merely as an explanation of the text but also as a means of awakening worship by being worship in and of itself. Christian preaching is a God-appointed miracle aiming to awaken the supernatural seeing, savoring, and showing of the glory of Christ. Distilling over forty years of experience in preaching and teaching, Piper shows preachers how and what to communicate from God’s Word, so that God’s purpose on earth will advance through Biblesaturated, Christ-exalting, God-centered preaching—in other words, expository exultation.

Book Description

The bananas we eat today aren't your parents' bananas: We eat a recognizable, consistent breakfast fruit that was standardized in the 1960s from dozens into one basic banana. But because of that, the banana we love is dangerously susceptible to a pathogen that might wipe them out. That's the story of our food today: Modern science has brought us produce in perpetual abundance once-rare fruits are seemingly never out of season, and we breed and clone the hardiest, best-tasting varieties of the crops we rely on most. As a result, a smaller proportion of people on earth go hungry today than at any other moment in the last thousand years, and the streamlining of our food supply guarantees that the food we buy, from bananas to coffee to wheat, tastes the same every single time. Our corporate food system has nearly perfected the process of turning sunlight, water and nutrients into food. But our crops themselves remain susceptible to the nature's fury. And nature always wins. Authoritative, urgent, and filled with fascinating heroes and villains from around the world, Never Out of Season is the story of the crops we depend on most and the scientists racing to preserve the diversity of life, in order to save our food supply, and us.

Book Description

Ecclesiastes 3 says there is a time and a season for everything and then lists those points in our lives when we experience the good and the bad. Lifes ups and downs are all a part of, and determined by, the spiritual seasons in which we find ourselves. In Walk in Your Season, author Anita Wamble shares a scriptural-based look at how these seasons affect our lives. She discusses how we spiritually enter a new season (spring), journey through trials and tribulations (summer), bloom (autumn or harvest), and go into dormant (winter) seasons as God dictates. Using everyday items such as seeds, soil, land, water, and tools to discuss spiritual seasons, spiritual planting, spiritual sowing, and spiritual reaping, Walk in Your Season helps you identify your current season, accept the season youre in, walk in your current season as you prepare for the next season, and prepare yourself for your harvest season. Through the essential elements of prayer, Gods word, praise, and obedience, Wamble shares what shes learned about the seasons to let others know theres more to their lives than what they are living and to help them achieve their God-given destinies.

Book Description

Psalm 19:14 "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer." I cannot heal anyone, none of us can. I am His obedient instrument, His servant, His hands & feet ... Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit in me is the Healer, the Great Physician. I am not a theologian, but I am a willing student of the Book. There is little I can offer; no words or wisdom or experience, technique or method, none of my own very limited knowledge, no natural gifts ... beyond my humble heart to try to love His children as He does; to see, feel and hear their pain enough to intercede on their behalf (See Matthew 5 - the Beatitudes). Christ Jesus called us to a life of holiness; any brokenness or unrepented sin is a barrier that the enemy will use to keep us from that life of holiness. Paul challenges us to be imitators of Christ through the Redemptive nature of Jesus. He calls us, the saints, His sons & daughters, heirs of Christ, to be the instrument of healing by His power, grace and mercy. This (our) generation needs an infusion of the Good News of Jesus Christ and a restoration ... and a Savior. Join me on this journey - to study His Word and seek His guidance as He calls His Church to wholeness. Blessings; Ron
