Graham Beynon Boeken

A lively new introduction to biblical teaching about the Holy Spirit

Rediscovering the 10 commandments and applying them personally in today's context and culture.

Why think about the future? After all, what will happen will happen. The future only leads to controversy and argument, and it's irrelevant to life now. However, Graham Beynon shows that the real danger is that we don't think about the future. God in his Word puts last things first―the whole gospel is shaped around what is to come. God has a plan for where he is taking this world, and his people are called to live in the light of that future. Christians are to be those who look back―to the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. All that happened then shapes our life now. However, they are also to look forward―at what God will do in finishing his plans for his creation through Jesus. The Bible teaches Christians to store up treasure in heaven, to wait faithfully for the return of their Master, to think of this world as temporary and passing, and to think of the world to come as their inheritance. Graham Beynon takes a fresh look at this teaching and shows how what is to come should shape practical Christian living now, with regard to godliness, handling of money, service of others, speaking about Jesus, faithfulness to him, response to hardship, and more.

Our identity or self-image is a bit like looking in a mirror. We see our reflection and make judgments about ourselves. However, the "mirror" we use tends to be the world around how do I compare with others and what do they think of me? But there is another mirror we can use―the mirror we should use. James 1:23-24 tells us that the Bible, God's word, is like a mirror. We look into it and see what we are really like. Here is a description, not from culture, but from God. The world tells us that we need a good self-image. The Bible says that we need a right self-image. With a pastor's heart, Graham Beynon, minister at Avenue Community Church in Leicester, helps us realign our thinking.

This guide to church planting recognises that no churches start out the same. There will be important things to decide upon such as leadership, decision- making processes, outreach, and community involvement.
