Redefining Children's Ministry in the 21st Century by Becky Fischer Pdf

Research shows that by the time many children are thirteen years old they feel they know everything there is to know about the Bible and God, and feel no further need of attending church. Could this be because we have underestimated their spiritual potential, and been content to feed them a repetitive spiritual diet of basic Bible stories over and over again? Just how many ways can we repackage Noah's Ark anyway? It's time the collective body of Christ re-evaluate children's ministries and redefine what valid, disciple-making, equipping children's ministry really is.

Redefining Children's Ministry in the 21st Century by Kids in Ministry International Pdf

We have a crisis in the Church in regards to our children. Research shows as many as 70% of the children who have been raised in our Bible believing churches and families are leaving our ranks in droves when they reach their teens and young adult years. What's worse is very few of them ever return. By the time many of these kids are thirteen years old they feel they know everything there is to know about the Bible and God, and feel no further need of attending church.Could this be because we have underestimated their spiritual potential, and been content to feed them a repetitive diet of basic Bible stories over and over again? Just how many ways can we repackage Noah's Ark anyway? It's time the collective body of Christ reevaluate and redefine what valid disciplemaking, equipping children's ministry really is.

Russian Version by Becky Fischer Pdf

"This book by Becky Fischer book has opened my eyes to the seriousness of the crisis in contemporary children's ministry. It showed me how devastating the consequences can be if the church does not make radical changes. While translating this book I have experienced the conviction of the Holy Spirit many times. He revealed to me the areas in the church and in my personal life where an urgent transformation must take place, because I am also a mother of two sons. On the other hand, Becky gives practical guidance that all parents can implement immediately as well as church leaders. This book made a strong impression on our entire team, all those who worked on preparing the book for printing. Yula, who worked on editing the texts, who is also one of our children's ministers immediately began to apply the principles. The changes which took place in our children's ministry began right after reading the first few chapters. I believe that this message is extremely urgent for today. Let's raise up a generation of radical servants of Jesus Christ. Those who are listening to His voice and obeying His will to heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, and to preach the Good News of Jesus to a lost world. Natasha Lazuka, Ukrainian Harvest Ministries

Radicalism and Music by Jonathan Pieslak Pdf

Radicalism and Music offers a convincing argument for music's transformational impact on the radicalization, reinforcement, and motivational techniques of violent political activists. It makes a case for the careful examination of music's roles in radical cultures, roles that have serious impacts, as evidenced by the actions of the Frankfurt Airport shooter Arid Uka, Sikh Temple murderer Wade Page, white supremacist Matthew Hale, and animal-rights activist Walter Bond, among others. Such cases bring up difficult questions about how those involved in radical groups can be stirred to feel or act under the influence of music. Radicalism and Music is based on interviews, email correspondence, concerts, and videos. As a "sound strategy," music is exploited to its fullest potential as a tool for recruiting and retaining members by members of al-Qa'ida, the Hammerskin Nation, Christian Identity, Kids in Ministry International, Earth First!, and Vegan Straight Edge. But, as the book points out, the coercive use of music is not isolated to radical cultures, but in political propaganda, sporting events, and popular music as well. Ultimately, Radicalism and Music shows how music affects us through our emotions, and how it triggers violence and enables hateful ideology.

Hearing God's Voice (for Kids) by Becky Fischer Pdf

Next to our salvation, there are few things more important for a Christian, child or adult, than to learn to hear the voice of God and be led by His Spirit. Jesus said, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” It's in childhood we should be taught how to hear the voice of the Shepherd, because it's then we form the habits that will stay with us throughout our entire lives. If children can be taught what His voice “sounds” like, and how to recognize His leading, they will be much better equipped to make right choices that affect their entire lives.This series takes kids from the basics all the way to seeing prophetic visions and dreams, and learning how to interpret them from scripture. You will see Joel 2:28 come to pass before your eyes when "your sons and daughters prophecy." They will also learn how to recognize the Enemy's counterfeit supernatural that attempt to mimic the Gifts of the Spirit.Your children will never be the same!13 Lesson Titles for Hearing God's Voice curriculum:* The Natural World vs. the Spirit World* God Has a Still, Small Voice* Red Light, Green Light* We're Led By Peace* The Magnetic Pull of the Spirit* His Word is a Lamp to Our Feet* Young Men Shall See Visions* Dreaming Dreams* Interpreting Dreams and Visions* The Spoken Word of God* Angelic Visitations and Open Visions* The Enemy's CounterfeitWhat's Included:* 12 dynamic lessons* 12 skits for either drama or puppetry* 12 Power Verse Discussions* Multiple Objects Lessons Per Lesson* 15 Review Questions for each lesson* Scripture Contest for each Lesson

The Auditory Culture Reader by Michael Bull,Les Back Pdf

The first edition of The Auditory Culture Reader offered an introduction to both classical and recent work on auditory culture, laying the foundations for new academic research in sound studies. Today, interest and research on sound thrives across disciplines such as music, anthropology, geography, sociology and cultural studies as well as within the new interdisciplinary sphere of sound studies itself. This second edition reflects on the changes to the field since the first edition and offers a vast amount of new content, a user-friendly organization which highlights key themes and concepts, and a methodologies section which addresses practical questions for students setting out on auditory explorations. All essays are accessible to non-experts and encompass scholarship from leading figures in the field, discussing issues relating to sound and listening from the broadest set of interdisciplinary perspectives. Inspiring students and researchers attentive to sound in their work, newly-commissioned and classical excerpts bring urban research and ethnography alive with sensory case studies that open up a world beyond the visual. This book is core reading for all courses that cover the role of sound in culture, within sound studies, anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, history, media studies and urban geography.

Our Amazing God Curriculum by Becky Fischer Pdf

Researchers tell us this is the first generation in American history that was not raised on Judeo-Christian philosophy. Pluralism (mixing a variety religious beliefs and regarding all of them as equally valid and true) has invaded our society in every way, and we can no longer assume when we discuss “God” in a group setting that we're all talking about the same one.“Our Amazing God” is a 17 week study asking “Who is God?” It is a very biblical, foundational study of the three persons of the Godhead [the Trinity] and the part each of them plays in our lives. They conclude with an in-depth look at how we are created in His image–spirit, soul, and body. It discusses how it is only our spirit that becomes born again, which is why we must renew our minds, and crucify our flesh to walk victoriously in Christ. We guarantee your children will learn things they never knew before even though the topics may seem familiar. You may think you have taught these concepts before, but we guarantee you have not seen them taught like this!
