After working with teens for over 30 years, Steve Damron decided to share some life lessons he gained through helping young people in book format. The writing of this book came from his search for teen material when he first began in youth ministry. There was a great deal of information about fun activities and developing teen events but very little on helping steer young people toward godliness. This book does not claim to cover every aspect of working with teens, but it does cover A through Z. This book was written to help equip parents, pastors, or youth workers with vital information to assist young people in thriving spiritually. Steve has been involved in Christian work for over 30 years, beginning with a junior high youth group in the spring of 1991. During this time, he has spoken to teens in 40 states and ministered to them in over 20 countries.Steve can be found hiking and camping in his spare time. He has written a few books and articles over the years and continues to write and produce three podcasts. He can be contacted through Baptistpulpit.com or SteveDamron.com.

What is Dispensationalism? Why is understanding Dispensationalism important? How does God deal with people in the Old and New Testaments? What are the characteristics of dispensations in the Bible? How are the dispensations different from one another, and how are they the same? These are questions a biblical student may ask.In this book, Michael D. McCubbins, Th.D. gives a very readable and detailed explanation of the dispensations in the Bible. He explains the meaning of dispensations and the characteristics that constitute each one. Dr. McCubbins also gives ample illustrations from the Scriptures and outlines the parameters of each dispensation. He adequately explains how each dispensation has a specific purpose, how man received specific responsibilities, and how man failed in each dispensation. However, the knowledge that this study brings to the reader's heart is a joy when he or she comes to realize that God's grace and mercy is evident in every dispensation. The value of such a book as this one is that it enhances the reader's appreciation for God's sovereignty and oversight, not just in the big picture but also in the intimate details of our lives.

Caden and his family live in a small town. His father has a military career and is at home right now. Caden helped with Pancake Breakfast by spending the morning working with applesauce and assisting where the manager directed him. The friends participated in two Fire Station Camp Day events that helped children learn about firefighting. They would have the opportunity in a few years to be junior firefighters.Caden and his friends enjoy the baby animals on Kaitlyn's farm and learn about gardening during these summer days. They help out the elderly Mrs. Edna in her strawberry patch by spending the morning picking strawberries. It was a treat for Caden to walk to Mrs. Edna's house in the cool morning air in the quiet of the small town. The new day started serenely with birds singing and Caden thinking about his blessings.

Sharpen Your Sword contains a wealth of information and help for the believer in their knowledge and use of the Word of God. Also called "the sword of the Spirit," the Bible should be the weapon we use daily in spiritual warfare. However, the Sword is useless if it is not picked up. It is also meaningless if we do not study and use it properly. This book begins with an introduction, or overview, of the Bible. It also contains vital help for reading, studying, and memorizing the Scriptures. Other chapters explore some of the most significant texts regarding understanding the Bible, such as 2 Timothy 3:16, Psalm 19, and Psalm 119. The Sword of the Spirit has been given to the believer to help gain victory. I pray this book will aid each reader in skillfully wielding his Sword.

Open, close, or closed (restricted) communion? Which of the three positions is the biblical one? All three are practiced by those who call themselves Independent Baptists. In this booklet, Brother Matthew Hines presents the case that closed communion is the biblical way to observe the ordinance of the Lord's supper. The local New Testament Baptist church has been given authority by Christ to administer this ordinance and to call her members to a somber commemoration of what their Lord and Saviour did for them on Calvary.

How thankful I am for the privilege of growing up in a Christian home. I accepted the Lord as my personal Saviour when I was a young child, and my parents taught me how to pray and trust the Lord for all things in my life. I went to a small Christian college, met my husband there, and we've been married since 1970. We enjoy spending time with our children and eight granddaughters. My husband, Dick, has always been my best friend, encourager, and spiritual rock throughout our years together. I was always very involved in church and outdoor activities. However, after having two back surgeries, I developed a rare spinal disease in 2000 that caused constant, excruciating pain and left me unable to do much of anything. I did not receive relief from doctors as they were unfamiliar with this condition. After much prayer and guidance from a dear Christian doctor, we researched and found no cure, but there are ways to help me cope and function. For that, we are truly thankful. During this time, I asked the Lord to use me in some way to be a blessing to others. He brought to mind many precious promises from His Word and sweet hymns that I had learned as a child. I began writing poems and songs. Through this trial, I wanted to share His Word, His promises, and valuable lessons that gave me peace and even joy. He brought me through my darkest hours, and He can do the same for you. Trust in the Lord and be encouraged by Him and His Word.

Who Am I Now? offers spiritual perspectives for seasons of change. Loss and change are inevitable. Transitions can be exciting or disheartening, expected or sudden, gentle or piercing.

Dear God, why."Mitch Thornton, engaged to Nora Crabtree, a second-grade schoolteacher, thought she would be a perfect mother for his son, Danny. Nora insisted he leave Danny with her while he made ready their home at the Smoky Mountains. He couldn''t have been more wrong.

Shaw was sitting shivering in the middle of a deserted, trashed-up alley. The sun was shining down brightly on him-yet he felt cold and very, very scared. A figure entered the alley. Shaw sprang to his feet-standing still and tense. Then he sighed. It was Dean, grinning and walking up to him and stopping just in front of him.Before Shaw could think, Dean swung a punch into the side of his head, sending him reeling into the building on Dean's right. Shaw hit with such impact that it knocked him out, and he crumpled to the ground.With his right hand, Dean caught a knife aimed at Shaw's head. From the back of the alley sauntered the four leaders of the Scar."Nice catch," smirked one of them. But don't worry. We'll take care of your little friend after we've dealt with you." They beat Dean senselessly to back up their threats; then they took turns inflicting wounds that cut deeper than any knife. Having satisfied an old grudge, the four thugs marched off, assured no one would ever dare violate their turf again. Or would they?

In 2004, I was encouraged to preach through the Book of Revelation by a member of the Elliott Baptist Church, John Rushing. I knew it would be a long series and a profitable one. The truths contained in this, the last book of the Bible, are more pertinent today than ever before. These notes give a snapshot of the past two thousand plus years. Our Lord's ministry to the churches is found in chapters 1-3. Christ and the Tribulation are found in 4-18, and Christ and the future are seen in chapters 19-22.There are many Commentaries on this great book of the Bible pinned by John the Revelator as the Holy Spirit of God moved him. This book is not an attempt to provide anything new or different. This outline study aims to provide materials for individual study, pastor's messages, or as a guide to Sunday School teachers.As you turn the pages of this book, I am sure you will gain a clearer understanding of HIS BOOK. Revelation 1:3, Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

Where the Mountains Meet the Rainforest: A Delicious Christmas was written because we love the context of family and the dynamic of generations coming together. This book is a story within a story-a legacy within a legacy-and a product of love. Though I never knew my physical father, I knew that he existed. I never resisted the healthy options for earthly father alternatives. My sons knew both their biological father and grandpa. What a treat, joy, and blessing to watch. No one is perfect, though we only share the best parts. Each of our journeys has something special. To see my children embrace stories of old and get to witness a loving generation of their descendants is so deeply special to me. We offer our books to others through realistic fiction and relationships, which brings a rich perspective of the past and present into one story. It is phenomenal. This story was written over ten years ago and started as a poem. I feared making it a book until my late father-in-law approved it. He knew my heart was to share his legacy and to give our next generation something to look back on-as well as look forward to. It is a joy to use my gifts for the glory of God and the people most precious to me. I also seek to assist other families by sharing these gifts of our most intimate family times. We hope you enjoy the book, Where the Mountains Meet the Rainforest: A Delicious Christmas. It is based on the young life of my children's grandpa and the food prepared and served around Christmas in Guyana. On the other side of the mountains, Guyana is in South America, best known as British Guyana. It is not a Latino country but a West Indian island, having a variety of cultures, including Asian, Indian, African, Latin, and Caucasian. The rain forest is vast with life, has larger-than-life animals, and makes Guyana known for its beauty. Hence, the name of the book. So welcome to a world we have not known but known through our dear grandpa's eyes-whom we love and miss so much. Thank you for your purchase. We hope you will also check out our other books-Rough and Tough Afro Puff, Baby Brother Blues, and Becoming a Bedtime Routine Expert.
