Live Your Assignment

A Christian is sent out as an ambassador of Christ. But where? And for what purpose? Live Your Assignment: Being Christ's Ambassador in 7 Spheres of Life unpacks God's highest purpose for the Christian life, which is much more radical and transformative than living a comfortable, spiritual life. This book echoes some of the work of Os Guinness’s The Call, and challenges us, as disciple of Jesus, to further awaken ourselves to the tasks as representatives of God himself, and ministers of reconciliation. Phil presents God-given assignments in 7 key spheres of life; the self, creation, household, fellowship, city, nation, and world. It is through these assignments, which God gives to all those who love him, that God is filling the universe with his glory. Phil presents a unique angle on discipleship and life-calling/vocation in this book. He challenges followers of Jesus to apply these principles to their lives, as he has to his own as an individual, son, husband, father, pastor, mission leader, and servant in the wider body of Christ through the EFC and WEA. This book is a great resource for everyone seeking to bring glory to God in the whole of life.

The Esther Anointing gives you the keys to Esther's success, including the qualities that make women great, the power of influence, and the key to finding God's favor for your assignment.

Larry Davis lives with his wife, Carolyn. He was inspired to write this second book under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. He loves the Lord Jesus Christ with all his heart, and his desire and aim is to please Him. God wants us to put Him first in every area of our lives. Before the beginning of time He placed our assignment/s in our hearts to bring Him glory, and it is up to us to fulfill it by seeking Him and developing a close relationship with Him. Therefore, the sole purpose of this book is to help aid and encourage as you seek God first for instructions on finding your assignment, your purpose for being here. (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2) 1To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: Everything God created under heaven is timed. For example: people, trees, animals, birds, etc., are timed on this earth. God did not leave anything out! Everything is timed by God. He goes on to tell us that there is: 2A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted. When you were born, you were timed to fulfill the assignment, purpose that God placed in your life, whether your purpose is showing kindness in your home, on your job, ministering in your home, your church, your neighborhood or on the streets. You are here only for a time to do your assignment.

Welcome to my book about how to overcome your fear to live your life with courage throughout the chapters of your WorkLife Story. Here is a preview of what’s inside, along with the main ideas and the meaning behind these. WorkLife is our life at work, where we spend one third of our lives. It is also the impact our work has on our life outside of work, and the impact our life outside of work has on our work. All areas of our life in and out of work are so intrinsically linked, they cannot be separated, nor do I believe should they. I believe WorkLife needs to be considered holistically. Living your best WorkLife is about choice. It’s about having courage to face your fears and make changes. It’s about taking a step back and asking why this isn’t working for you, and exploring why you are unfilled or unhappy in your WorkLife. It involves taking a hard look at yourself and recognising the sources of pleasure in your life and the sources of frustration. It’s about stepping beyond your place of fear, to embrace what lies ahead, which comes from taking that first courageous step. In this book I tell five stories: 1. Improvisation Career Change and Hiking in the Alps: Richard’s story of how it took three years of striving towards living his dream WorkLife for it to finally come to fruition; and how during that time, he took steps of courage to overcome his fears. 2. What If? Letters to Juliet: Claire and Sophie’s Story of how contemplating ‘What If?’ led them on a journey of adventure and courage to overcome their fears. 3. Red Velvet: A Story Both Triumphant and Tragic: Ira Aldridge’s story of how he lived his Work- Life with courage, overcoming his fears in the face of adversity, and going on to receive many accolades in recognition of his talent. 4. My Top Three Isolation Inspirations: Carmel’s story of how she coped with the day-to-day fears of uncertainty brought about by the impact of Covid-19 on her WorkLife. 5. Overcoming an Abstract Fear: Lucas’s story of how being observant to what was going on around him, allowed him to overcome a fear that was very foggy. I share the exercises that helped to work through these challenging situations to resolve the dilemmas. I present these exercises as the following assignments for you to work through: Yes, And...

True faith is hard. More than mere sentimentalism, faith often calls for a deep and resilient trust in God—especially when the going gets tough and the road is dark. In Things Not Seen, author Jon Bloom encourages readers with 35 imaginative retellings of stories from the Bible that illustrate the importance of living by faith. A follow-up to the author's previous book, Not by Sight: A Fresh Look at Old Stories of Walking by Faith, this inspiring volume explores the lives of Abraham, Moses, Saul, John the Baptist, and more—helping readers remember God's promises, rely on his grace, and follow his leading regardless of the circumstances. The book includes a foreword by popular author and blogger Ann Voskamp.

Trusting Jesus is hard. It requires following the unseen into an unknown, and believing Jesus's words over and against the threats we see or the fears we feel. Through the imaginative retelling of 35 Bible stories, Not by Sight gives us glimpses of what it means to walk by faith and counsel for how to trust God's promises more than our perceptions and to find rest in the faithfulness of God.
