\nFresh Air (D1962)<\/strong><\/a>
\nConfused about who the Holy Spirit is, what the Holy Spirit does and why it matters? You\u2019re likely not alone. This book and DVD by Jack Levison, Professor at Seattle Pacific University, clarifies 2,000 years of history\/thought\/assumptions\/teachings about the Holy Spirit. Endorsed by eminent theological thinkers\/writers such as Eugene Peterson, Scot McKnight, Phyllis Tickle, and N.T. Wright, this resource shows that the Holy Spirit is about more than spiritual gifts and fruits \u2013 it\u2019s about the highest human aspirations and deepest human breaths. It\u2019s about being infused with the Holy Spirit for an inspired life.<\/p>\n

Change the World (D2022)<\/strong><\/a>
\nMaking a positive difference in a hurting world, serving the least, lost, and lonely in Jesus\u2019 name, spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ, isn\u2019t that what Christians are supposed to do? Isn\u2019t that what Mission is about? This study will guide church leaders into the work of global mission by helping them find ways to use all opportunities and aspects of church life from worship to education to fellowship to budgeting to facilities for missional outreach.<\/p>\n

Forged by Fire (D4740)<\/strong><\/strong><\/a>
\nHow we tell a story matters because stories are how we define ourselves. Forged by Fire is a collection of five stories about ethnic groups that have faced or are facing injustice, persecution, and\/or marginalization in the United States. These stories, however, are sprinkled with hope as evidenced by the reaction and action of United Methodist Church clergy and members on behalf of those groups.<\/p>\n

When Christians Get It Wrong (D4225)<\/strong><\/a>
\nYoung adults seem to have opted out of Christianity and the Church in large numbers these days. Why? If asked, they give several reasons, but the most important one is that they don\u2019t see many Christians being truly Christian. Young adults don\u2019t have a problem with Jesus \u2013 just with those who claim to follow Jesus \u2013 yet live in ways that don\u2019t represent who Jesus is and how He wants His follower to be. Specific attitudes and behaviors young adults mention are Christians being judgemental, hypocritical, condemning other people\u2019s faiths, rejecting science, injecting politics into faith, and being anti-homosexual. In this DVD, Adam Hamilton tackles these issues and addresses the \u201chows\u201d and \u201cwhys\u201d of Christians getting it right (and wrong) when it comes to representing Christ in the world. <\/p>\n
