[Vyrso/Logos] free ebook for pastors [till 28/6]

$0.00 HKD $131.81 HKD
In Survive or Thrive Jimmy Dodd reveals that the majority of pastors are not known—by anyone. They purposely isolate themselves from both staff and congregations so their insecurities, doubts, and failures aren’t exposed. Yet confiding in the wrong person can be a dead-end at best and disastrous at worst. Former pastor Jimmy Dodd reveals how those in pastoral ministry can receive ongoing support, accountability, and restoration from a boss, counselor, trainer, mentor, coach, and good friend.

Discover how you can move from surviving to thriving with the six relationships every pastor needs.

[Kindle/pdf] free ebook: Owen on the triune God [till 4 July]

John Owen, Communion with the Triune God
Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2007.
Edited by Kelly M. Kapic and Justin Taylor.
Foreword by Kevin Vanhoozer.
Does it make a difference that the God Christians claim to worship has revealed himself as triune—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit? Does this fundamental truth of biblical authority have an effect on a believer's personal fellowship with God?

Puritan theologian John Owen recognized the great need for every believer to understand the triune God. Communion with the Triune God revisits the truth presented by John Owen and challenges all believers to truly recognize and appreciate the ministry that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit have in their lives.
