Ministry Insights is a compilation of 52 golden nuggets of wisdom for leading your ministry well. This power-packed book draws from Josh Denhart's 20+ years of ministry in the trenches. This book was written from the front lines of ministry for those in the front lines of ministry.
In the first volume of Pulse, 35 experts offered practical insights on a variety of topics facing kidmin workers today. Back by popular demand, this second volume contains 36 chapters with the combined wisdom of 36 experts serving on the front lines of children's ministry, covering issues such as:
In addition to practical advice, Pulse tackles crucial matters of spiritual and professional development, leadership growth and leaving a legacy for those who will come behind you.
Whatever you think will make you happy will not make you truly happy unless God is in it.
The lives that others see us live should be a mirror image of God's heart for us. When we feel we are too broken to fix, we can look no further than the most well-renowned, broken cast of characters as our muses in the most compelling book ever written-the Bible!
In Muse with Me, author Monica Ariytey invites you into the unwavering truths-one for every day of the year-about the unchanging God who chose to serve the ever-changing people who could never faithfully serve Him back. This 365-day devotional will:
Our walk is a daily one with reason to rejoice and praise!
We can't just sit back and expect God to do everything for us while we just wait. We have to step out in the belief that God's will for each of us is good, and God has good in store for us.
In a sense, we have all walked through our fair share of life's dark alleys with enemies lurking around every corner. The afflictions of our past often cast harrowing shadows on the hope of our future, but God has the final word on who we are to become!
Senior Pastor of Christ Universal Temple, Derrick Wells, shares his journey from the streets of Chicago to the streets of gold in his memoir Transformation Out of Trouble. You'll find:
You are not meant to live small and afraid. God has ordained that you live unapologetically and audaciously BIG!
You have influence whether you mean to or not.
You may not fit the mold of your average leader. In fact, you may not even realize you already are a leader. You're the dark horse-unassuming and hiding in the shadows when you are meant to be on the front lines.
In It's Not About You, renowned entrepreneur and high-impact leader Cameron Singh draws from his personal experiences as a young, inexperienced leader in the aviation industry and shares valuable lessons he has learned throughout the lifespan of his leadership journey. By the end of this book, you will master:
Influence is already yours. You just have to know where to find it and how to execute it.
Throughout biblical history, God's people have experienced transitions that challenged their current state and pointed toward a future that wanted to happen in the eternal purposes of God. The nascent 21st century is just such a time.
Tectonic cultural shifts are creating tsunamis of uncertainty and disillusionment that strain our institutions, expose our divisions, and test the Church's readiness to lead. Always, such breakpoints demand a revived focus and renewed dedication to the truth--in our case, a devotion to the ancient and unchanging truths upon which Christ built His Church.
As was true at previous junctures, the current transition is revealing a vanguard company of men and women who, amid upheaval and disorientation, understand the times and know what to do (1 Chron. 12:32).
In Dead Prophets Society, Dr. Mark Chironna speaks to the legacy of Issachar and its place in the 21st-century Church. Methodically and scripturally, he describes how modern sons and daughters of Issachar will do what Issachar has always done: arise to the high call of God, labor on the living edge of what He is doing, and serve as His instrument of recovery and restoration, His vital, authentic, and overcoming Church.
In Matthew 15, we read about the faith of a Canaanite woman. Her daughter was troubled and others had shooed her away. She didn't know what to say except for three very important words: Lord, help me. And Jesus said, Great is your faith Be it done for you as you desire.
Over the course of this book you will be introduced to ten prayers. They all begin with Lord, help me... because the success of your ministry hinges upon God's blessing and the Holy Spirit's power upon what you do.
Too many kidmin leaders try to do God's work in their own strength. We try to carry the weight ourselves only to find that we fall short; only to find that we are left empty handed, or that we don't accomplish what we want or desire.
God never intended for you to do ministry alone. He has given you the Holy Spirit to empower you to do what He has called you to do. It requires you to lean in on Him. Just as the Canaanite woman knew nothing to say but, Lord, help me, this book will remind you that there are 10 important areas in which we desperately need God's help... and when He empowers us in these 10 areas, our lives and ministries are forever transformed.
The change you've been looking for in your ministry can be found in 10 simple sentences. When you pray through them every day and commit to grow in these areas, they can forever change the way you live, the way you view people, and the way you do ministry.

Hundreds of books claim to offer the best in physical fitness programs. But rarely is time taken to reflect on what kind of shape we are in spiritually. A gifted pastor and preacher, as well as a dynamic teacher, Kenneth Ulmer offers Christians a different kind of fitness program--the eternal kind.
Training to Win is a spiritual fitness program that helps Christians move beyond the surface spirituality that has become so popular in today's culture to a much deeper level--godliness. Paul told us to train ourselves for godliness, Ulmer writes. Our target--the mark we shoot for, the purpose for which we are called--is godliness.
Training to Win is an engaging look at the Scriptures that takes you step-by-step through the issues and hurdles of training toward godliness. It is divided into three sections that explore the principle of godliness, the process of godliness, and the practice of godliness. Set in a reader-interactive, Bible study format complete with questions at the end of each chapter, Training to Win will lead you to the workout of your life--one that will lead you to peace, understanding and eternal spiritual fitness.
Jesus was a Jew. The writers of Scripture were Jews. The early church emerged in a Jewish environment. So why the tension between Jews and Christians, and why have so few Jews come to believe in the Messiah? In The Fig Tree Blossoms, Paul Liberman uncovers the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and helps Gentile believers come to a deeper understanding of the historic issues that have fed Jewish suspicion of Christians and Christian prejudice toward Jews. But in these last days, Liberman writes, God is using the emerging Messianic movement to bring many Jews into His kingdom and to awaken Gentile Christians to their Jewish faith heritage. Instead of casting blame or assigning guilt, Liberman calls Gentile Christians to embrace their Messianic brothers' and sisters' Jewish expressions of faith in much the same way Paul encouraged his fellow Jews to embrace Gentile believers who were entering the first century church. Discover how the fig tree--the biblical symbol for the Jewish people--is blossoming, and how many will come to enjoy its fruit.
It's dark outside, and thoughts of work and meetings and money buzz through your brain. You turn on your back as you suddenly feel the breath start to leave your lungs. Breaking into a cold sweat, you struggle to understand what's going on. Your mind is fuzzy as you take another labored breath. Your heart thumps like a train crashing through your room.

We never know when panic and anxiety will grip us--but there is a way out. You don't have to live this way anymore. Troy Maxwell shares his personal experience in an intimate story of tragedy and growth as he walks you through how to make it out if the Panic Room.
