Books

When God Transforms the Desert -

the amazing story of the transformation of a small town in the Brazilian desert. Written from 25 hours. of personal interviews with those involved.

When God Transforms Paradise -

The story of God's transforming power in seven villages in the island nation of Fiji. I spent three weeks in Fiji doing these interviews.

Walking Through the Land of Firsts - 

A book about going through the grief of losing

a loved one. My personal journey through the "Land of Firsts" (this is not yet available on our bookstore website, but we hope to add it soon)

Characteristics of Revival - The heart of Jesus for His Church

This is a study of the letters of Jesus to the seven churches in Revelation 1 - 3, and how they reveal to us the heart of Jesus for a

revived and dynamic church. This is new in the bookstore, but I have been teaching this since the Lord revealed it to me almost 30 years ago.

Church Discovery Guide

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Church Discovery Guide is most effective when completed by a group of church leaders

in a leadership retreat or similar context of extended time spent together. Within that context, it is crucial that prayer calls forth

the work of the Holy Spirit to reveal what

needs to be known in order to chart the

future growth of prayer in the church.

Walking through these questions, sharing answers, and then praying together will help clarify your present situation, as well as give insight into future steps.

This is in PDF format and can be purchased 

for $5.00.

Contact me for more information.

Culture of Prayer

One of the basic tenents of our understanding

of the place of prayer in the local church is having a "Culture of Prayer".  We have

produced a teaching on Developing a Culture

of Prayer in the church. If you are interested

in learning more, or how we can help teach

your church, contact us.

Study Guides /Small Group Studies

I have produced two study Guides that can be used individually or with a small group.

The Meekness of Wisdom - 

​This is based on the text of James 3:13,

"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by their deeds done in humility [meekness] that comes from wisdom."

There is also a Leaders Guide for this study if you want to do it in a small group.

This is also available in Portuguese.

Sanctification - Becoming Like Christ in Everyday Life - 

This study really deals with the lack of hunger for holines and sanctification in the church today, dealing with reasons why, cultural influences and the importance of sanctification as we look toward the coming of the Lord

Jesus, our Bridegroom.

This also comes with a leaders guide for small group use.

This is also available in Portuguese.
