Bill Monroe has given us a book that calls us back to the Great Commission. The Great Commission consists of three divisions which are covered so adequately in these pages. Number one is to make disciples; number two is to put them, by the act of baptism, into a local general assembly called the church; and number three is to train them. Then and only then did Christ promise to be with us until the end.
I believe that thousands of pastors in America and other countries will become more faithful to the Great Commission as a result of this book. Thank you, Bill, for giving of yourself and your talents to help us do that which the Lord Jesus Himself commanded and modeled 2000 years ago.

Written for serious Bible students—pastors, Sunday School teachers, seminary students, missionaries, counselors, spiritual directors, and other “agents of the Creator”—this innovative commentary was conceived to identify “the author’s intended meaning as expressed in the biblical text.” Combining a transparent hermeneutical methodology with a “canonical-linguistic” theological reading of Job and Ecclesiastes, two Old Testament books of Wisdom. In this book, Jim Reitman explores much of the territory left uncharted by available verse-by-verse exegetical treatments.
Dr. Reitman introduces and concludes the commentary with transparent first person accounts of his own trials, disillusionment, and experience in medical ethics and military medicine that will help the reader appreciate how acutely relevant these two books are to the lives of 21st Century Christians. The prominent themes—self-sufficiency, adversity, disillusionment, the call to brokenness, mourning, the “fear of God,” and accepting our portion from God as chosen agents of his purposes—all readily transfer to our contemporary context.

The Book of Revelation is a storybook. It takes the reader from the scene of Jesus Christ's glory as the Father's High Priest in His heavenly temple to the final temple, called “New Jerusalem” (Revelation 3:21 & 21:2) where His Bride will dwell eternally with Him. The Book of Revelation is the “Masterpiece” of all Biblical stories. It begins with the glory of Jesus Christ and ends with His saints in His glory. At the beginning of the story, He walks in the midst of His church, but in the end His church walks in the midst of New Jerusalem, the most spectacular city ever dreamed. This storybook is the “Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Revelation 1:1). It is the complete unveiling of all His glory. The very first chapter gives forty-one references of the Son of God. >>More
In this book we shall examine The Purpose Driven Church, The Purpose Driven Life, and thebusiness system that Rick Warren has developed to promote it around the world. We shall look carefully at his claims, his use of scripture, his integration of human wisdom with scripture, and his ability to get thousands of pastors to convert from expository Bible preaching to being Purpose Driven. In the end we shall compare Rick Warren's version of “church health” with that of Jesus Christ. We shall see that the strong desire for church growth through gaining popularity with the world has caused him to create a version of Christianity that is seriously “re-defined.”
