Hymns for a Kid's Heart by Bobbie Wolgemuth,Joni Eareckson Tada Pdf
A Jewish religious leader named Nicodemus once visited Jesus. Like many people, Nicodemus expected that his good life would earn him a home in Heaven when he died. Imagine how he felt when Jesus said to him, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3).Jesus explained to Nicodemus that the new birth is a spiritual change that can only be brought about by God. The moment a lost sinner repents of his sins and trusts Jesus as the only One who can save him, he is born again. God gives him a spiritual nature through which he can understand and enjoy the things of God.What Jesus told Nicodemus 2,000 years ago is just as true today. We may try to live a good life, go to church or engage in other commendable activities, but we still must be "born again" in order to be a member of God's family.Haveyoubeen born again? This is life's most important question, because your answer will affect all of your eternity.How do we know that we have been born again? The Bible lists six characteristics in the book of 1 John. These are not requirements in order to be born again, but the results of God working in our lives. No Habitual SinningFirst: "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin" (1 John 3:9).The true Christian does not habitually sin because he wants to please his Lord. Although he is far from perfect, he knows that "if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17). If he does sin, he can confess and "the Lord is faithful and just to forgive" (1 John 1:9). Believing in ChristSecond: "Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God" (1 John 5:1).Someone who is born again believes that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He is the One sent by God the Father to pay the penalty for man's sin by His death on the Cross. His resurrection from the dead on the third day is proof that He is able to forgive us and bring us into fellowship with the Father. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by Me" (John 14:6).A born-again Christian does not merelyknowthe facts about Jesus Christ, but he has committed his life to Him as Savior and Lord.The child of God does not depend upon his church, his good deeds or his pastor to bring him eternal life. The Bible says, "For as many as received Him (Jesus Christ), to them gave He power to become the children of God, even to them that believe on His name" (John 1:12). Practicing RighteousnessThird: "Everyone that doeth righteousness is born of Him" (1 John 2:29).Christ is the Christian's example as well as his Savior. Jesus told His disciples, "If ye love Me, keep My commandments" and "ye are My friends, if ye do whatever I command you" (John 14:15; John 15:14).The true Christian lives to please his heavenly Father and tries to avoid those things God hates. Loving Other ChristiansFourth: "We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren" (1 John 3:14).Like Jesus, the child of God loves even his enemies; but he has a special love for those who are also believers. They may be different from him in race, personality and denomination, but they are all members of the same family. "This is the message that ye have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another" (1 John 3:11). Overcoming the WorldFifth, "Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world" (1 John 5:4).Someone who is born again does not follow the world's ever-changing standard of right and wrong. He does not mind opposing the world's ways, because he seeks God's praise more than man's and fears offending God more than offending man. Keeping Oneself PureSixth, &q
Her Heart Can See by Edith Waldvogel Blumhofer Pdf
Fanny J. Crosby (1820-1915) was the most prolific of all American hymn writers. Having lost her sight in infancy through a doctor's negligence, Fanny went on to compose more than 9,000 hymns, as well as various other songs, cantatas, and lyrical productions. Crosby's hymns, including such all-time favorites as "Blessed Assurance," continue to be sung around the world. She was also involved with New York City's rescue missions and with other benevolent efforts. She rubbed shoulders with the likes of Henry Clay, Grover Cleveland, Winfield Scott, Dwight L. Moody, Ira Sankey, Jenny Lind, P.T. Barnum, and many other famous figures who people these pages. Drawing on primary sources, including thousands of unpublished manuscripts, Blumhofer sorts fact from fiction in the life of this remarkable nineteenth-century northeastern Protestant woman, in the process showing why "this diminutive woman" was so beloved.--From publisher description.
Modern worship leaders are restless. They have inherited a model of leadership that equates leading worship with being a rock star. But leading worship is more than a performance, it's about shaping souls and making disciples. Every worship leader is really a pastor. The Worship Pastor is a practical and biblical introduction to this essential pastoral role. Filled with engaging, illustrative stories it is organized to address questions of theory and practice, striving to balance conversational accessibility with informed instruction. Part One presents a series of evocative "vignettes"--intriguing and descriptive titles and metaphors of who a Worship Pastor is and what he or she does. It shows the Worship Pastor as Church-Lover, Disciple Maker, Corporate Mystic, and Doxological Philosopher. Part Two covers specific roles related to ministry within the worship service itself--the Worship Pastor as Theological Dietician, Caregiver, Mortician, Emotional Shepherd, War General, Prophetic Guardian, Missional Historian, and Liturgical Architect. Part Three looks at ministry beyond the worship service--the Worship Pastor as Visionary Teacher, Evangelist, Artist Chaplain, and Team Leader. While some worship leaders are eager to embrace their pastoral role, many are lost and confused or lack the resources of time or money to figure out what this role looks like. Pastor Zac Hicks gives us a clear guide to leading worship, one that takes the pastoral call seriously.

"No attempt has been made to present a critical study of Frances Jane Crosby, but simply to retell the life of the Sightless Singer as she, herself, told it to me on various occasions when visiting my home" - p. 11.
