Seeking God to Seek a Pastor – by Dr Greg Frizzell

Seeking God to Seek a Pastor Revised Edition

“Turning Pastor Search into Churchwide Renewal!”

For churches in the midst of pastor search, I have great news! When the pastor leaves, Jesus doesn’t–. How glorious to realize the interim can actually become a powerful time of growth and transformation. Unfortunately for most churches that is definitely not what transpires. Seeking God To Seek A Pastor helps interim churches refocus on Jesus as the true Head of the Church. This process helps congregations experience the dynamic prayer, deep renewal, and relational healing that prepares them for a powerful new beginning. Especially in our day of confusion, it is critical to help churches discern their most strategic needs and clearly hear God’s voice in their critical decisions.

In this tool, committees and churches experience three crucial elements now missing from most search procedures. First, the search committee and church body embrace a powerful process of increased prayer, cleansing, and unity. Second, the church is helped to identify its primary barriers to true revival and kingdom-growth. Third, committees learn how to draw near to God and clearly hear His voice for the right pastor.

Dear saints, with over seventy percent of churches either plateaued or declining, we simply cannot continue with “business as usual.” The time of pastor search is a rich opportunity for growth and change. Seeking God To Seek A Pastor can be your path to a whole new closeness with Christ. It is my fervent prayer that searching churches will find far more than a new pastor. May we find the manifest presence of God Himself. For His glory and spread of His kingdom, let us settle for nothing less!

The DIGNITY Lens Workbook – Dr Beth-Sarah Wright

Dec 15, 2022 | 2020-2024, All Books, Featured Items, L-Z, Wright

The DIGNITY Lens is a transformative, comprehensive set of seven strategies to look deeply at our institutional challenges and create means of bridging the gap between our aspirations and our current reality, thereby becoming more authentic and creating sustainable change. That’s a huge task! And it probably won’t happen overnight. Where do you start? While DIGNITY: Seven Strategies for Creating Authentic Community (2020), introduces you to these tenets and provides great context for this work, The DIGNITY Lens Workbook provides facilitated exercises and tools to engage with this work and to make progress in narrowing the gap.

Life on the Altar – Dr James B Law

Jan 31, 2022 | 2020-2024, All Books, Featured Items, L-Z, Law

The themes set forth in Romans 12, where believers are called to present themselves to God as living sacrifices, drive the conversation in this book. We are summoned to the altar of God’s presence through the finished work of Christ on our behalf. The Christian life is presenting ourselves to Him every moment, of every day, all the days of our life. This is what I am calling, “Life on the Altar.”

The pattern is repeated again and again throughout Scripture, yet is seldom (if ever) heard from our pulpits. Because I have found alliteration to be a great help to my memory, I began to assign alliterated words to this pattern of discipleship that seems to be repeated in Scripture.

This book is designed to walk you through the pattern used in Scripture that can be replicated in your life and in your church.

Discipleship Preaching – Dr. Rob Finley

Aug 10, 2020 | 2020-2024, All Books, Featured Items, Finley

There is a distinct pattern that Jesus used in training His original twelve disciples. Jesus and the disciples employed the exact same pattern when they began to disciple the 70 and then again with the 120.

The pattern is repeated again and again throughout Scripture, yet is seldom (if ever) heard from our pulpits. Because I have found alliteration to be a great help to my memory, I began to assign alliterated words to this pattern of discipleship that seems to be repeated in Scripture.

This book is designed to walk you through the pattern used in Scripture that can be replicated in your life and in your church.

Our church is looking for a new pastor…the previous one was here for 20+ years…obviously we have little to no experience in this area. Before he left, the Pastor gave me a copy of this book..thanks to him and thanks to the Lord…I am ordering 5 more copies for the other members of the search committee. Don’t try to do this monumental task without guidance…its full of His Word, as well as very practical & detailed information about the methods to use, actual questions to ask and basic “how to”. This is too important a decision to just “wing it”.
