Free Stuff Fridays (TGBC)

This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by The Good Book Company. They are giving away a bundle of books for ministry leaders. 

The Bundle includes:

  • Both/And Ministry by Gary MillarGary Millar has been involved in training hundreds of gospel workers at Queensland Theological College. Pointing to Christ as our supreme example, he helps readers to reflect on and refine their own ministry practice in a range of different areas—while also enjoying God’s grace where they fall short.

As you look at all things through the lens of the gospel, you’ll increasingly become the fully-formed follower of Jesus and servant of his church that you have been called to be.  

  • 5 Things to Pray for Your Church by Rachel Jones – We long for God to be working in our church fellowship, and we know we’re meant to be praying for our church. But often when it comes to it, we don’t quite know what to ask for. Or we feel our requests to God are shallow, repetitive and stuck in a rut. That’s where this little book is designed to help. It will equip you to pray powerful prayers for your church family—prayers that really change things, because they’re based on God’s word.
  • Into His Presence by Tim Chester – This collection of eighty theologically rich and beautifully written prayers and meditations, adapted from Puritan prayers and prose, will enrich and deepen your prayer life. Each prayer combines beautiful words with profound truths. Read during personal devotions or use to lead rich and deep corporate prayers.
  • Zeal Without Burnout by Christopher Ash – Exhaustion and burnout is experienced by many people who are involved in Christian ministry, sometimes to the extent that they simply cannot carry on. Christopher Ash shares his wisdom in this short, accessible book, in which he reveals seven keys to avoiding burnout that flow from recognizing our human fragility and the necessity of depending on God. His practical and biblical guidance will help enthusiastic Christians gain the mindset and lifestyle to protect themselves from burnout and serve Jesus for the long term in a sustainable way.
  • The Christian Manifesto by Alistair Begg – In this book, Alistair Begg unpacks Jesus’ sermon in Luke  as a manifesto about genuine Christian living that lays out God’s vision statement for us. Begg encourages Christians to live a radically different life that upends the world’s values and philosophies. It’s a lifestyle that is counterintuitive and countercultural, yet one that God blesses with true meaning and impact. This compelling book will remind you of God’s grace and what it means to follow him, helping you discover the ultimate blessing that is found in him.

Giveaway Rules: You may enter one time. When you enter, you permit The Good Book Company to send you marketing emails which you may unsubscribe from at any time. The winner will be notified via email. The giveaway closes on Friday, January 31.

    A La Carte: Charlie Kirk Special Edition

    When articles about Kirk flooded my app this morning, I knew his death was proving to be especially noteworthy.

    The Most Exasperating and Least Rewarding

  • The Hard Work Is Done—Family Bible Study Is Fun

    We plant the seeds of the gospel through rich, Christ-centered family worship. We water them with our prayers. But only God can cause those seeds to grow—and isn’t it a relief that this part is not up to us? God calls us to faithfully pass on the gospel to our kids and reserves the saving…
