I would like to point your attention to two great e-books that I have read recently.
The first is Epic Jesus, by Frank Viola. This was originally delivered as a conference message, and was then converted into a short e-book. This little book brings a stunning revelation of Christ throughout the scriptures, and brings God’s eternal purpose into view. The book is about 20 pages, and can be purchased here for $3.99. The original audio message is available for free at this link as well.
Secondly, I would like to point you to an e-book titled Junia is Not Alone, by scholar Scot McKnight. It’s another short read, but well worth your time. Here’s the product description from amazon.com:
In this fierce essay, leading Bible scholar Scot McKnight tells the story of Junia, a female apostle honored by Paul in his Letter to the Romans—and then silenced and forgotten for most of church history. But Junia’s tragedy is not hers alone. She’s joined by fellow women in the Bible whose stories of bold leadership have been overlooked. She’s in the company of visionary women of God throughout the centuries whose names we’ve forgotten, whose stories go untold, and whose witness we neglect to celebrate.
Not only does this book highlight the important role women play in the scriptures, it gives some insight into how we have arrived with our english translations of the Bible.
You can order the Kindle version of the book here. The Nook version is here. Both are $2.99.
I just ordered Julia’s not Alone..
Where do you have Organic Church?
Gainesville, FL. Thanks for checking out the blog! I hope you enjoy the ebook.
Ah, so you go where Mike Pollie has felowship! I was a pastor and left the clergy after reading Frank Viola’s book (Pagan). This was 6 years ago, and we are still seeking organi church 🙁
I was never a pastor, but was in “lay leadership” in various churches and was working on a seminary degree. But the Lord every so graciously and tenderly moved me away from that.
I’m not sure who Mike Pollie is. Our fellowship has existed for about 2 1/2 years.
Where do you live?
I live in NY. Orange County
