Let's get back into this

I am not sure how many people come across this blog on a regular basis but I notice that many of you have come to this blog via Google. Its been a very inactive blog but I hope to get back into it but I need your help. If finding practical ways to live a life glorifying to God appeals to you, leave a comment to this post. I got some ideas coming up that I would like to write about such as:

  • How to use Google Docs for God
  • How an online prayer list could be best for you / your church 
  • Running a Church office via an internet portal - is it possible? 
  • How do you hide God's word in YOUR heart? 
Let me know if any of these ideas appeals to you.

Best book for Christian Men

I've seen a lot of Christian books that talk about issues for men but there hasn't been one that has challenged me in the same way that the book Disciplines of a Godly Man has done. The author Kent Hughes takes men through some of the most popular realms in our lives such as friendships, marriage, fatherhood, work etc to explore how Christian guys should be living. There are plenty of anecdotes and true stories for us to demonstrate the Biblical  points that he shares and is a great resource for Mens fellowships or gatherings.

If you are a guy who does not have a Mens group in your church, perhaps it's time for you to start something. The ministry that God places before men is extremely hard and very important in the Church. Without faithful men to carry an example, there will not be good Christian families and the Church's most important "cell group" (families) will be lacking. Men need to overcome the laziness of gathering together and the fear of sharing their own experiences and seek the best for each other. What are you waiting for? Your fellow brothers are waiting for someone to take the initiative. And the Holy Spirit may be saying.. You.

Free Christian Audio Books

I think I may have mentioned it earlier but Christian Audio is a great place to get some classic Christian books in audio format. This month, you must download the book "HOLINESS OF GOD" by R C Sproul.

Why Holinness? I think there can be no way that you can relate to God without really appreciating his holiness. It is his most inherent nature if you could call it that, an attribute which the angels in heaven repeat three times in a row for emphasis "Holy! Holy Holy! Is the Lord God Almighty". You will probably find your life changed completely by listening to this audiobook as I hope my life will too. We live in an age of great depravity and Christians need to make the most of the avenues that they have to pursue God.

My Favourite Biblical Counselor

The world as we know it has changed for the worst and one of the greatest opportunities that Christians have to share with the world is through the ministry of relationships and family. One of the best speakers on this apart from the usual Focus on the Family ministries is Dr Jim Berg who has a website containing some of his sermons here. Dr Berg has been the Dean of Students at a Christian university for over 20 years and has gained a lot of experience counseling students with every problem and deviation under the sun - some you would never imagine in a Christian university.

Check out his messages and let us know what you think.
