It is absolutely essential that a church perceive itself as an institution for the glory of God, and to do that, the local church must adhere unfalteringly to biblical leadership principles. Christ never intended church leadership to be earned by seniority, purchased with money, or inherited through family ties. He never compared church leaders to governing monarchs, but rather to humble shepherds; not to slick celebrities, but to laboring servants. Drawing from some of the best-received material on church leadership, this updated edition guides the church with crucial, effective lessons in leadership. This book is valuable not only for pastors and elders, but for anyone else who wants the church to be what God intended it to be.

"The intelligent child of God must be driven to say, 'I must pray, pray, pray. I must put all my energy and all my heart into prayer. Whatever else I do, I must pray.'"Stunning and forthright, R.A. Torrey's "little book on prayer" is a reflection of the writer who once had it said about him, "One wonders if there has ever lived a man who did so many things well for Christ."Torrey succinctly deals with the key elements of life-changing prayer, such as praying in the Spirit, abiding in Christ, obstacles to prayer, the best times to pray, seeking revival through prayer, and more. Torrey outlines a practical strategy for living life in conversation with God.

Even when economic times are tight, our children enjoy an abundance of material possessions. Yet, amidst all this wealth, discontentment and competition seem to be on the rise. Instead of teaching children virtues such as gratefulness and patience, many parents are bending over backwards to get their children the latest and greatest item - or feeling guilty when they can't. With the currents of materialism and entitlement flowing so strong, how do we raise kids who are simply thankful? With simple language, interesting anecdotes, and biblical applications, Susie Larson helps readers understand that although teaching perspective and gratitude to our children is critical, it is not difficult.

"Do you have it in you to take the uncommon road?"says Susie Larson as she challenges you to fight against the ordinary and move toward the extraordinary. Guiding you through scenarios in which victory is found in the difficult task of responding in faith, Susie walks with you as a friend. Her experiences have shown her that to fight the current of that which is ordinary, you must look to the Lord, who stoops to make the common great.Susie explains the distinction between a common and uncommon woman is often tied to their reactions to circumstances. The common person reacts with pat answers; she casually dismisses others in their moments of weakness; she stays on the low road to build her case. But the uncommon woman responds to God's love. She covers another's weakness, she chooses her battles wisely, she seeks the high road. She knows that Jesus is alive and active and willing to change her life. And where she walks, then, becomes holy ground.Perhaps you don't think you can be extraordinary. Maybe you do not believe you can be a godly influence on all those around you. The Uncommon Woman will show you how to be uncommon in your circumstance, regardless of the situation. Each chapter includes biblical teaching, personal illustrations, and a "what about you?" section to give you a chance to reflect on what you've read.Take a chance. Dare to be uncommon.
