To such, intimacy with the Lord is something to be read about in a book or the story of some specially graced people. This should not be so, as the Bible makes it clear that every child of God is meant to live in vital union with the Lord—see John 15, and Psalm 91.

The kingdom suffers because of the too many spectators who are said to be soldiers in the army of the Lord.

The one who commits this sin can be delivered. That is what this book is about. May the Lord bless you as you listen to it! Amen.

We live in a leadership paradox: In a time that needs leadership more than ever, people are more reluctant than ever to take on the responsibility of leadership.

To Lead: A Practical Guide for Leaders in Churches and Faith-Based Organizations is Joel Milgate’s contribution toward filling that gap.

Preachers often quote this majestic promise in describing the consummation of history, the restoration of all things at the end of time.

Although the books are rooted in the Word of God, they are written not merely to help listeners to know God’s point of view about the matters discussed but also to lead the believer beyond theoretical understanding into spiritual experience; for sanctification is, ultimately, not merely a doctrine but an experience.
