Following the theme "Show Me Your Glory," a title which alludes to the onset of Israel's wilderness journeys where Moses asked to see God's glory, we are excited to include in the teaching during The Season After Pentecost, the reading of a devotional classic "The Knowledge of the Holy" to shape our reflections and reactions as we walk together.

Tozer's work is a brilliant theological devotional on the attributes of God, designed for spiritual formation and blessing. His insights into the nature of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has proven to be a remarkably enriching treatise for all who have discovered it. Using the outline of Tozer's devotional classic as the thematic center for our refletions, homilies, and discussions, we hope to be greatly inspired and blessed as we take extended time to ponder the majestic attributes of our Triune God! Below is the outline for our study on The Attributes of God, in the order it is taught. 

The following link will take you to a YouTube playlist of the complete theme teachings on "Show Me Your Glory", with "The Attributes of God" teachings starting in the Season After Pentecost at Week 24: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEwSlFuW0xsgjSv1ol9U9vCbgv7iAoyTS

We’ve entitled this series Words of Life and hope to take a deep spiritual and intellectual dive into the premiere New Testament passages on the nature of the Gospel and its implications for the lost. This series consists of direct teachings from texts in the Bible on the Gospel. There are 22 separate teachings, 7-10 minutes in length of video with powerrpoint, dealing with a particular issue followed by discussion questions. This teaching represents the “Who’s Who” texts in the New Testament on the transforming power of the grace of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

So you read Dr. Davis' Sacred Roots and you are wondering, "Are there more books about this?" Guard the Good Deposit is a practical guide based on Sacred Roots that explores some of the everyday questions and issues related to retrieving the Great Tradition.

The Bible Blossom was created to equip believers to tell the Story of God in Jesus Christ. It is a visual bible for the millions of believers whose cultures are oral and story-oriented (which is the case with virtually everyone in poverty). Dozens of beautiful images are assembled in a way that links the stories of the Bible together. The whole story is connected to show that the Gospel of Christ and his Kingdom is the cord binding all of Scripture together. We have also created a Storyteller’s Handbook keyed to The Bible Blossom that orients storytellers to the settings, characters, themes, and plots connected with the images.

For more than forty years, World Impact has been dedicated to honoring and glorifying God and delighting in him among the unchurched urban poor by knowing him and making him known. Our vision is to recruit, empower, and release urban leaders who will plant churches and launch indigenous church planting movements. Our Evangel School of Urban Church Planting trains church planters to plant healthy churches among the city’s poor, applying biblical wisdom in order to effectively evangelize, equip, and empower unreached city folk to respond to the love of Christ, and take their place in representing Christ’s Kingdom where they live and work.

This guidebook, the official text of the Evangel School, outlines a process of church planting that respects the unique cultures, environments, communities, and situations reflected in urban America. The PLANT approach outlined provides practically wise and spiritually vital instruction to ensure that urban church planting teams will neither fail nor blunder as they seek to engage needy yet spiritually ripe unreached neighborhoods. Filled with devotionals, seminars, exercises, and worksheets, with dozens of graphics, diagrams, and articles, this rich resource will empower church planting teams to design a strategy consistent with the vision God has given them – the kind of strategy that results in the creation of healthy, Kingdom-declaring churches, and the launch of reproducing church planting movements. Use this handy manual to engage your community with creativity and wisdom, planting the church God called you to plant.

Our 2018-19 Sacred Roots Annual is entitled The Gospel and the Harvest (cf. Matt. 9.35-38). Its cover displays the vast, ripe harvest contrasted with the few workers gathering it in. During Ordinary Time we will study premiere texts explaining the Good News of hope, and the Church’s challenge to share that with the world. Come, join us as we feast on the truths of the Gospel and the harvest, the message of life given to us all.

Heeding the Psalmists words, Dr. Davis guides you through the skills associated with playing the guitar so that you can truly "Play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts" (Psalm 33.3).
