Daniel Meyer has provided the tools you need to move forward:
the basics of the gospel message
the role of life change in our witness
how to present the good newsThe Bible studies, exercises and readings in this book will deepen your personal faith and equip you to minister to others with a new sense of confidence and calling.

Get Off Your Donkey (Reprinted)
$18.00Add to cartJesus had little patience with institutional religion that cared for its own needs while neglecting the plight of ordinary people. In one of his most famous parables, he sets up as a model of Christian behavior a man who, unlike some religious folks, actually gets down off his donkey and helps a person in dire need.
With energy and enthusiasm, Reggie McNeal calls believers to dismount, get down and dirty, and live a life that makes a difference. He shows readers how to recalibrate their spiritual efforts to move from church-centric service to greater community engagement in order to do their essential part in creating a world worth living in. McNeal also shows readers that helping others actually helps the one doing the service just as much as the one being served. In fact, serving is the very best way to learn about yourself and grow spiritually.
Anyone who longs to have the impact on the world that Jesus did will love this provocative and inspirational message.

Activating The Power Of The Cross
$6.99Add to cartWithout a proper understanding of the power that was granted to believers through the cross, it is difficult for the Christian to truly benefit from and maximize its authority while on earth. The cross accomplished eternal security for those who place their faith in Christ alone; however, what is often overlooked are the accomplishments of the cross that are to be carried out on earth. In his unique style, Dr. Evans examines the cross in such a way as to bring hope into the hearts of each reader while giving them practical tools for leveraging all God intended and achieved at Calvary.

Light Giver : Discovering Gods Uncommon Wisdom
$16.99Add to cartDale Fife, author of The Secret Place, takes readers on another visionary journey into the inner sanctum of God’s presence. To experience the mysteries and revelation that Fife has experienced is to know the peace, joy, and rest that can be found only in intimate communion with the Father.
Moses encountered the light and fire of the burning bush. On their way to the Promised Land, the Israelites followed a pillar of smoke by day and a pillar of fire by night. The priests of God ministered in the temple with the flame of a lamp stand as their only source of light. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12).
God wants all believers to walk in that same light of supernatural revelation. He wants you to transcend human limitations and access the divine realm. Open your spirit to receive fresh illumination, for you are about to have an intimate encounter with The Light Giver.

Idolatry Of God
$17.99Add to cartWhether readers are devout believers or distant seekers, The Idolatry of God shows that we must lay down our certainties and honestly admit our doubts to identify with Jesus. Rollins purposely upsets fundamentalist certainty in order to open readers up to a more loving, active manifestation of Christ’s love.
In contrast to the usual understanding of the “Good News” as a message offering satisfaction and certainty, Rollins argues for a radical and shattering alternative. He explores how the Good News actually involves embracing the idea that we can’t be whole, that life is difficult, and that we are in the dark. Showing how God has traditionally been approached as a product that will render us complete, remove our suffering, and reveal the answers, he introduces an incendiary approach to faith that invites us to joyfully embrace our brokenness, resolutely face our unknowing, and courageously accept the difficulties of existence. Only then, he argues, can we truly rob death of its sting and enter into the fullness of life.

What Jesus Started
$24.00Add to cartSometimes we get so caught up in the power of Jesus shouting from the cross, “It is finished!” that we forget that Jesus started something. What Jesus started was a movement that began small, with intimate conversations designed to build disciples into apostles who would go out in the world and seed it with God’s kingdom vision. That movement grew rapidly and spread wide as people recognized the truth in it and gave their lives to the power of it. That movement is still happening today, and we are called to play our part in it.

Risen : 50 Reasons Why The Resurrection Changed Everything (Reprinted)

In fifty brief chapters, he offers readers faith-filled meditations on the primary passages on the resurrection, taking these ancient truths and applying them to contemporary life. With compelling insight, he shows why Jesus not only had to die, but why his resurrection was necessary and how our lives change when we understand and embrace this essential truth of the Christian faith.

Real Life : A Christianity Worth Living Out
$22.00Add to cartWhat does it mean to follow Jesus? And how should we help others become more like him? Once upon a time, being a Christian seemed clear.

Heaven On Earth
$18.99Add to cartMany approach the Beatitudes as if they were a list of steps to be taken on the road to personal happiness. Or buttons to be pushed to secure God’s favor in pursuit of one’s own agenda.

The Beatitudes are Jesus’ declaration of where “the good life” is. They comprise an invitation to immerse ourselves in the good life and experience a river of joy running through us to transform the world around us.

Next Door Savior
$19.99Add to cartWe applaud men for doing good things.
We enshrine God for doing great things.
But what about a man who does God things?
One thing is certain. We can’t ignore him. If these moments are factual, if the claim of Christ is actual, then he was, at once, man and God.
The single most significant person who ever lived. Forget MVP. He is the entire league. The head of the parade? Hardly. No one else shares the street. Who comes close? Humanity’s best and brightest fade like dime-store rubies next to him.
Dismiss him? We can’t. Resist him? Equally difficult. Why would we want to?
Don’t we need a God-man Savior? A just-God Jesus could make us, but not understand us. A just-man Jesus could love us, but never save us. But a God-man Jesus?
Near enough to touch. Strong enough to trust. A next door Savior.

Biblical Discipleship Program For Women
$19.99Add to cartIn memory of Dr. Anne Morey (May 16, 1948-June 3, 2012) Dr. Robert A. Morey’s wife, Anne, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, June 3, 2012, while they were in Florida celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. They were lifelong friends and partners in faith who met in high school in New York City when she was 15 and he was 16 years old. The Lord, in His sovereignty, allowed Anne to complete her book on women’s discipleship before her death. May her book be a blessing to Christian women everywhere. Dr. Anne Morey was not just a wonderful wife and mother, but she was also a fearless soldier of Christ who was not afraid, like Deborah of old, who took up the Sword of the Spirit in the cause of God and truth. Her love of truth and courage in spiritual warfare is what drew me to her when we were teenagers. She accompanied me on the streets of New York City to hand out tracts to the lost. Together we counseled runaway teenagers in Greenwich Village. She loved going to Walter Martin’s Apologetics Class every Monday night. We discussed philosophy and theology with great relish. We loved Francis and Edith Schaeffer so much that we spent part of our honeymoon at L’Abri. Anne graduated cum laude and went on to earn an MA and then a PhD. She ran the women’s ministries in the church, and gave biblical instruction on how women could use their spiritual gifts in the Body of Christ. This is how she developed a Biblical women’s discipleship program. Most “women’s ministries” focus on baking cookies, making dolls, gathering clothing for the poor, and sinful gossip and slander. My wife viewed them as a total waste of time. Why can’t women study the Bible in depth? Why can’t they study apologetics and theology? Titus 2:3-5 gave Anne the key to developing God’s plan for discipling women. Mature Christian women were to be instructed by the elders of the church in seven topics, and then personally train the younger women in those subjects. If churches were to follow what God laid out in Titus 2:3-5, the women in the church would rise up as a mighty army of God to confront and conquer the evil in the church and the world. Anne’s graduation to Glory was the most painful experience in my life. While her death was gain to her and she is far better off with Christ in heaven, the rest of us are left to struggle on in the battle. But, by the Grace of God, before she died, Anne finished her book on the biblical plan for women’s discipleship programs. Her godly influence and example li

Spirit Hunger : Filling Our Deep Longing To Connect With God
$18.99Add to cartWe all have a desperate need for God — not just for following him or being committed to him, but to be intimately connected to him. We long for purpose, for affirmation, for attention, for nurture. But Gari Meacham writes that we fall short of being desperate for God, or we miss the longed-for romance with God we hear about in scripture.andnbsp; We’re uncertain how to distinguish our longings from our fears.andnbsp; When, says Meacham, did our longings turn to hauntings? And when did we buy into the counterfeit yearnings for control, and the insecurity, perfectionism and other attitudes that quench Spirit Hunger? The answer to Spirit Hunger is to engage God like never before. In this book Meacham shows through her story and the stories of others how to turn worry into belief, problems and heartaches into a life of intimate prayer, and sighs for intimacy into closeness with God.andnbsp; She discusses her discoveries about prayer including why asking is sometimes hard, how we can notice and track God’s movements as we seek his answers, and why it’s sometimes such a struggle to believe after we’ve prayed. Meacham writes, ‘With the authenticity of my own life stories—marriage to a professional baseball player, struggles with severe food bondage, and a father who was a quadriplegic—I came to the crisp realization that my prayer life and my belief needed to match. Spirit Hunger provides a clear path towards matching these heart cries—leading away from crumbs and counterfeit, to a hungering for God.’

As culture has become at once more secular and more religiously pluralistic, a renaissance of interest in the spiritual disciplines has been sparked in evangelical Protestant circles. Mounting levels of stress, burnout and spiritual dryness among those in ministry has only stoked this desire for spiritual nourishment and renewal. John Jefferson Davis helps us recover the practice of meditation on Scripture as he explores the biblical and theological foundations rooted in the arrival of “the age to come” in Jesus Christ. Indeed by virtue of our union with Christ, the Triune God of the Bible draws near to his people so that they may also draw near to him. Meditation on God’s revelation has always been central to enjoying communion with the Father through the Son and in the Spirit. Davis gives us fresh and practical guidance on removing the obstacles that block our fellowship with God and listening to Scripture in ways that can enrich our worship, faith, hope and love. -

Word Plus Spirit Equals Power (Reprinted)
$18.00Add to cartProven Formula for a Balanced, Effective Christian Life
Too often churches emphasize the Bible without welcoming the work of the Holy Spirit, who inspired the Bible. Or they focus on seeking manifestations of the Spirit while neglecting sound Bible teaching. The result: a schism in their faith lives in which they cut God–and his power–out of Christianity’s equation. How can God draw a lost world to his Son through people who are powerless?
With over 170 years of diverse ministry experience among them, respected veteran leaders R. T. Kendall, Charles Carrin, and Jack Taylor restore balance to the Christian walk. They show that when the Word is faithfully preached and the Holy Spirit warmly welcomed, the Lord manifests his power, bringing salvation, miracles, healings, heart understanding, and much more. Only when Christians honor the Word and the Spirit can they lead empowered, fruitful lives.

How To Make Prayer More Effective
$14.99Add to cartWithout a doubt, prayer is the greatest art in the world, a holy art that only needs to be learned and practiced.
The greatest difference between effective and anemic Christianity, is prayer. The most fruitful soul winners are those who make much of prayer. The greatest preachers of the gospel and missionaries of the cross are those who pray long and often. Everyday believers who walk in the power and miracles of God are people who see prayer as an attitude of life, not as a series of isolated acts.
To succeed at prayer is to realize that heaven is not far from earth. It is the ability to bend the arm of God.
Join with best-selling author Dr. Herbert Lockyer as he sets out to study the nature of prayer, and to better understand the simplicity and effectiveness of heartfelt communication with God.

Living Jesus : Doing What Jesus Says In The Sermon On The Mount
$13.99Add to cart12 Chapters
Additional Info
The Sermon on the Mount is more than great ideas by a great teacher. It is a way of life. Randy Harris invites you not just to understand these great teachings but to live them in ways you never before imagined.This new book is a training tool for people who want to live the way of Jesus. Centered on the entire contents of the Sermon on the Mount found in Matthew 5-7, it unpacks the sermon in hard-hitting, easy-to-understand, and practical ways.
G. K. Chesterton said Christianity has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and not tried. Many people today view the Sermon on the Mount this way. They simply believe the teaching is too hard and give up in exasperation and guilt or confusion. The single most important interpretive key for the sermon, says Randy Harris, is to believe that Jesus really intended for us to live these teachings.
Martin Luther said the Sermon on the Mount is so di!cult that we can only fall on the grace of God. The teachings are indeed difficult, and we can only fall on the grace of God, but this doesn’t mean the teachings cannot become a necessary guide for living the way of Jesus. The Sermon on the Mount, says Harris, is livable and this book is a guide to the greatest teaching of all time that will change your life forever.

Which Jesus : Choosing Between Love And Power
$19.99Add to cartWhat if there were two men named Jesus in the city of Nazareth? One was Jesus Barabbas, son of Abbas. One was Jesus Barjoseph, son of Joseph. One man was famous for his hatred and destruction. One was famous for his love and compassion. They lived, played, studied, and worked side by side, with one crucial difference: only one of them offered the way to salvation and eternal life. In Which Jesus, Campolo follows the divergent paths of the two until they converge at the feet of Pilate. Comparing the lives of two distinctly different men, a portrait emerges of One who had power over life and death versus one who would live by the sword and die by the sword. As Campolo draws the compelling distinction between true power and love and ill-gotten power and hate, Christians see that they have the ability today to do even greater works for the Kingdom than they ever believed possible. It’s a simple question of choosing which Jesus to serve.
-
Word Versus Deed
$22.50Add to cartThe Bible teaches that the church is called to a balanced ministry of both preaching the gospel in words and showing it with deeds. Yet the church has often found it difficult to find and maintain this balance. Today some are emphasizing deeds at the expense of words, while others hold fast to “talking” and forsake the doing. This is an imbalance that must be righted.
Standing at the helm of a leading Christian college, Duane Litfin has had a first-hand look at the issues students and alumni are talking about. Many Christians are excited to debate the importance of social justice and evangelism now more than ever before. Seeking to level the balance, Litfin steers the conversation toward the biblical harmony of word and deed, pointing out the church’s tendency to overcorrect-either cutting out the preaching of the gospel or forgetting the application of action.
An elder statesmen in the church, Litfin’s training in communication theory and in detailed exegesis is brought to bear on this important subject, bringing verbal proclamation in sync with the witness of one’s actions.

Facedown (Reprinted)
$13.00Add to cartMost believers understand that worship is not a compartmentalized aspect of the Christian experience, but rather it is the motivation–the driving force–behind all that we do and are. We exist to worship God. For years we have been basking in God’s love and worshipping Him with uplifted hands and hearts. Now we need to go deeper and see that God is also an awesome, mysterious being who should engender our silent, even dumbstruck, reverence for His holiness, His “otherness.” Until we are undone by the knowledge of who God is in all His glory, we will only touch the edges of true worship. Matt Redman says, “When we face up to the glory of God, we find ourselves face down in worship.” This book shows the biblical record of those who found themselves prostrate before God.

Running The Race To Win
$11.99Add to cart‘Running The Race To Win’ is a book about developing a deeper understanding of discipleship and developing a deeper relationship with Christ. It does not matter if you are a businessperson, schoolteacher, nurse, athlete, computer technician, student etc. you are called to be a disciple and to make disciples. The contemporary church has many times neglected the original command laid down by Christ Himself and for this reason discipleship seems to be a radical message. However, for the church to fulfill its mission we must once again return to this radical call. The word radical comes from the Latin word radix meaning the root of things. Radical discipleship is simply a call to return to biblical foundations. Biblical foundations are at the root of discipleship since a disciple is one who has been instructed in the foundational teachings of Christ.

Spiritual Cleansing : Getting To The Root
$25.99Add to cartHave you ever grown weary of going around the same mountain over and over again? Have you ever wondered why you continuously deal with the same issues generation after generation, with no victory in sight? Then you are probably dealing with something that is hidden much deeper within. It may have been planted generations before, unknown to you. This may have produced evil fruit and kept you and your family in bondage, robbing you of their blessings and ultimate destiny.
In the Book Spiritual Cleansing, you will understand the importance of getting to the root causes of the issue, thereby eliminating the evil fruit that is continuously reproduced in your life. It is time for the body of Christ to walk in freedom in every area of our lives. Sometimes as believers, we get stuck in a particular area of our lives in our walk with the Lord. And we often wonder why we can never gain the victory. The enemy tries to convince us that we can’t get past it and we continue to reap a harvest of pain and defeat.
It is time we stop settling for less than wholeness. Jesus defeated everything in His death, burial and resurrection. Obtain your Spiritual Cleansing and learn how to gain freedom in every area of your life and to share that freedom with others who need to break the chains of bondage in their own lives.

Why Me : For Every Tear Youve Cried For Every Pain Youve Endured God Has A
$12.99Add to cartWho would have ever known that my innocence would be taken away from me at age five. That for the next 35 years, I would live every day anxiously awaiting the end, struggling to escape this prison and continually wondering what I did wrong to get here. How could I have known that my precious baby, finally, someone who would love me back would grow to love me too much, pushing me away from her. How did my life become her problem? And finally, how could I have known that God would use all of my life’s trauma to restore me unto himself, that I might understand His divine plan for my existence. My prayer for you is that you not only understand creation and your purpose in this divine occurrence, but more importantly, you come to know your creator (God), his son Jesus Christ and his very nature in the person of the Holy Spirit. That your life may be transformed through Him and that when He calls you home, he might say, “Well done, thy good and faithful servant”.
I trust that the insights and revelations in this book will serve as a source of understanding, forgiveness and healing for your lives; that you will discover the incredible life that God has for you and that your life will be transformed through Him. That you will finally understand, “Why You”!

Cure For Troubled Hearts
$14.99Add to cartLet not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. (John 14:1)
Jesus Christ loves us as no one else ever has. But do we love Him as we should?
We hear sermons about Him; we sing about Him; we read about Him; we even try to speak to Him. And yet, for far too many, Jesus is not real. Is it no wonder that our hearts are troubled by the worries, pressures, and sorrows of this world?
Best-selling author Dr. Herbert Lockyer reminds us that Jesus’ willingness to receive us is the cure for our troubled heart. But His reception of us depends on our reception of Him. Through his teachings, Dr. Lockyer challenges us to enjoy Christ’s fullness, and to give Him the place of preeminence in every part of our life and being!

Shaping The Journey Of Emerging Adults
$20.00Add to cartBetween adolescence and adulthood is a new stage of life: emerging adulthood.
Those in their twenties and early thirties find themselves in transition. This “provisional adulthood” is a time of identity exploration and instability in which one’s vocation, purpose, relationships and spirituality are all being renegotiated. Many emerging adults lose sight of God and experience significant confusion and brokenness. Others unexpectedly reconnect with the Christian faith and seek deeper discipleship, yet lack helpful mentoring and direction.
Veteran disciplemakers Rick Dunn and Jana Sundene offer concrete guidance for those who shepherd and care for emerging adults. Some traditional models of disciplemaking focus on a set curriculum to be transferred from the discipler to the disciplee. Dunn and Sundene instead emphasize relational rhythms of discernment, intentionality and reflection to meet emerging adults where they are at and then to walk with them further into the Christlife.
Whether you’re an older adult ministering to the next generation or a younger adult with a heart for your peers, this book is an accessible, hopeful guide for effective ministry to emerging adults

Spirituality Of Living

“If we want to be disciples of Jesus, we have to live a disciplined life,” Nouwen asserts. In the spiritual life, discipline requires conscious effort to keep every area in life from being filled. It means creating space in one’s life for God.
Nouwen identifies 3 essential disciplines for maintaining a life of discipleship: solitude, community, and ministry.
This encouraging, insightful book inspires Christians to practice solitude, community, and ministry. The result, Nouwen promises, is a fruitful, Spirit-filled life.

Truth : A Nobody
$35.99Add to cartWhen we realize and accept that truth exists than we can use it to guide us through a seemingly untruthful world. Find out what God, Jesus and the Holy spirit say truth is and how it can help you in everyway..
The author’s mission is for his audience to turn away from the false mindsets of the world and examine the actual truth found in Christ. This undeniable, unchanging truth will lead the reader to discover real answers in life.
“…God and Jesus is the only real truth and what they have said will always be true no matter who you are or what your circumstances you may find yourself in,” states the author. “So each person can realize and find that Jesus is the only salvation and the only true thing that is unchanging and always ready to help.”
The author writes “The reason for A. Nobody is because I am not important to this world in the grand scheme of things. I am neither famous nor rich in wealth. I am not popular or an idol. I am, in a sense, a nobody.” He is clear in making it known that this book is not about him, but the one who inspired him, being God. The proceeds of this book will go to missions “…to declare to a world that the truth is here, the truth is ready, and the truth is yours, if only you will receive it.”

NotesAdditional Info
Your personal rule of life is a holistic description of the Spirit-empowered rhythms and relationships that create, redeem, sustain and transform the life God invites you to humbly fulfill for Christ’s glory.All of us have an unwritten personal rule of life. We wake at certain times, get ready for our days in particular ways, use our free time for assorted purposes and practice rhythms of work, hobbies, and worship. There is already a rule in place that you are following. Isn’t it time to give up your unwritten rule and prayerfully write one that more closely matches the heartbeat of God?
In this practical workbook Stephen A. Macchia looks to St. Benedict as a guide for discovering your own rule of life in community. It is a process that takes time and concerted effort; you must listen to God and discern what he wants you to be and do for his glory. But through the basic disciplines of Scripture, prayer and reflection in a small group context you will be lead forward in a journey toward Christlikeness.
The invitation is transformational, so brace yourself for sweet release. By letting go and trusting God, you will receive the gift of life in its fullest and richest form.

Truth Will Set You Free
$26.99Add to cartIt is a harsh world that we find ourselves living in, a daily struggle to survive. For the Christian the struggle is two folded for to survive spiritually is even harder. It is a daily struggle to stay on your feet spiritually and stand firm in what you believe.

There is little or no victory in your spiritual life and at the end of the day you look back at the wrong choices you made and feel so disappointed in yourself and worse, so guilty before God that you can’t face Him in prayer.
If you are one of my brothers or sister that are still seeking and know there must be something more for you are still spiritually weak, in chains, hungry and seeking, can’t let go of the old person and still wants to be part of the world, come with me on our journey and let the Truth set you free and the Holy Spirit change your life and way of thinking.

Life God Honors
$15.49Add to cartDiscover what it Means to be Truly Spiritual
Many Western Christians get sucked into the crippling thinking that a life which God will honor means going through the motions of religious observation without any real attention to the process of character transformation as we follow the example of Christ.
Still others, especially those in the charismatic circles to whom most of this book will address – the same circles in which the author spent most of his Christian life – seem to believe that a truly spiritual life is one that is marked by ecstatic emotional experiences with only a secondary focus on the daily task of building one’s faith and character down in the trenches of day-to-day living where emotional highs are often absent.
A discussion on the importance of understanding God’s work in the day-to-day might not seem like material noteworthy enough to write a book about. Yet, you might be surprised how much emphasis God puts on it and how many Christians are frustrated in their spiritual walks because they fail to recognize how God works in the everyday events of their common day. -
Spirituality And The Awakening Self
$24.00Add to cartBeing human is a lifelong journey of becoming. This journey defines our humanity, for it is a journey toward our source and our fulfillment, described in Christian theology as union with God. If we remain open to God as our sense of self awakens, we experience a deeper consciousness of being in him. The self that emerges during this process is larger, more enlightened, and whole.
David Benner, who has spent thirty-five years integrating psychology and spirituality, presents psychological insights in a readable fashion to offer readers a deeper understanding of the self and its spiritual development. Drawing on a broad range of Christian traditions, Benner shows that the transformation of self is foundational to Christian spirituality.
This book will appeal to readers interested in a psychologically grounded, fresh exploration of Christian spirituality; professionals engaged in pastoral care, counseling, and spiritual direction; and students in ministry development and spiritual formation courses. Questions and answers for individual or group use are included at the end of each chapter.

Living Into Focus
$22.00Add to cartIn today’s high-speed culture, there’s a prevailing sense that we are busier than ever before and that the pace of life is too rushed. Most of us can relate to the feeling of having too much to do and not enough time for the people and things we value most. We feel fragmented, overwhelmed by busyness and the tyranny of gadgets.
Veteran pastor and teacher Arthur Boers offers a critical look at the isolating effects of modern life that have eroded the centralizing, focusing activities that people used to do together. He suggests ways to make our lives healthier and more rewarding by presenting specific individual and communal practices that help us focus on what really matters. These practices–such as shared meals, gardening, hospitality, walking, prayer, and reading aloud–bring our lives into focus and build community. The book includes questions for discernment and application and a foreword by Eugene H. Peterson.

I Am A Follower
$19.99Add to cartIt’s time to leave the leadership obsession behind. It’s never been about leading.
“Leadership” has become a runaway obsession for those who are called to equip the body of Christ for service in the Kingdom of God. The concept of “followership” is all but lost in the wake of this leadership fetish, a near hypnotic obsession. Jesus’ clear call, and the pattern of New Testament leadership, are actually found in a pattern of followership. We’ve been told otherwise but when it comes to a movement in our churches, our families, or the workplace, everything rises or falls on followership. Sweet proposes an intentional shift from leadership cults to followership cultures. He critiques the issue of leadership obsession but focuses on reigniting a passion for the “follow me” theme found throughout the gospels and the entire New Testament. Building on a set of metaphors/images, he stirs the imagination by showing what it means to be a follower of Christ and explains the vital cog that followership and the first follower play in helping others enter into the Kingdom of God.
I Am A Follower moves readers:
from leaders that are over to followers that are among
from sages and gurus to scouts and guides
from Saul’s armor to David’s sling
from having the right answers to asking the right questions
from architects to gardeners -

The noun altar is usually understood to be a place of worshipful offering. Something of value is offered up and released on the altar.
