BOOKLETS

The Basics:
The Beginning, the Gospel of God’s Grace, and the New Beginning

This booklet teaches new believers the highlights of the Biblical drama and equips mature believers with tangible help to make disciples.

Why Trust The Bible?
Revised & Condensed

Faith in Jesus Christ hinges upon reliable accounts of historical events (1 Cor. 15:14-20). This booklet's facts support what our hearts believe: Jesus is a Man who really lived, who really claimed to be the Son of God, and who really died and rose back to life to prove it is true.

Spirit, Soul, Body:
The Blueprint of Man in the Image of God

Man’s current condition is not as it should be. God, in perfect wisdom, created Man in His Image with a delicate balance: spirit, soul, and body. When Adam ate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, the species changed. May we come into divine order with all three parts functioning as God determined. May we become spiritual disciples.

Light Shines in the Darkness:
Scripture Interpreting the Spiritual Drama of Genesis 1:2-3

As a supplement to The Basics and The Kingdom of God, this booklet details the Scriptures which led us to believe Genesis 1:2 records the result of judgment upon Satan and his rebellious angels when God cast them to the earth. We do not espouse the Gap Theory, but restoring the context of judgment in Genesis 1:2 restores the continuity of God’s mission from Genesis to Revelation.

Introduction to Disciple-Making:
Obeying the Global Mandate of the Resurrected King Jesus

This booklet begins with the demand of Jesus for all to be His disciples. Then Part One shows the theological foundation of the Great Commission, surveying its prophetic roots from Genesis to Revelation and expositing Matthew 28:18-20. Part Two provides practical counsel based on Jesus' example.

Spiritual Gifts:
Discovering Graces and Partnering to Manifest the Fullness of Christ

Spiritual gifts are part of the core of our identities and the basis for our ministries. Jesus is building a gift-driven Church.

The Kingdom of God:
The Reason Christ Created Man, Became Man, and Is Coming Again

A central theme in the Scriptures is the Kingdom of God. Controversy over God’s Kingdom defines our age and the purpose of our creation. The Kingdom gives coherent meaning to Christ’s birth, life, death, resurrection, ascension, outpouring, and return.

The Model Prayer:
Jesus Said, "Be Praying in This Manner"

We do not have to wonder what words to pray – Jesus taught us how to pray. This booklet unpacks the meaning of each phrase and models the model prayer.
