Do you attend church seeking God, only to find that that are still not satisfied? Do you long for a more personal experience---A real experience with your God? More and more people are searching---just like you. They are looking everywhere for answers that will lead to a deeper, more meaningful reality of their walk with God. This reality will release the saints to do what they are called to do. You are about to discover that your unique life is intended to play a significant role in a new Holy Ghost renovation of the Church. You will realize that genuine ministry is not based on the gifts of a single man but in a "multi-faceted, many-sided ministry"--- of which you are a vital part. You will understand why "the one man show" is over. True ministry is many people working together to accomplish one goal---fulfilling the ministry of Christ. A new style of leader with a new heart for the saints is required for such a revolutionary shift in thought and action. Dr. Mark Hanby lays out Paul's original goal for all five-fold ministry---"the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the Body of Christ." His nearly fifty years in worldwide ministry has uniquely prepared him to see the need of church and to call forth the saints, everyday believers like you and I, to fulfill their place in God's plan for the earth.
Experts on congregational life tell us that ministry in the next century will depend more on called, trained, and committed lay leadership than it has since the days of the early church. But how will congregations recruit these lay leaders? How will they develop new models for training and equipping them for all the ministries of the church? What will the role of clergy be in adopting this new partnership that Leonard Sweet calls "ancient-future ministry"? Equipping the Saints seeks to help congregational leaders answer these and other questions related to mobilizing lay ministry in the years ahead. The chapters include: "Shall We Abolish the Clergy or the Laity?" by Michael Christensen; "Team Building Through Spiritual Gifts" by Brian Bauknight; "The Loss and Recovery of the Biblical Basis for Ministry" by Russell Moy; "Out of the Pew, Into the World" by Jessica Moffat; "The Seeker Service in the Mainline Church" by Eric Park; "Circuit Riding in the 21st Century" by Rob Duncan; and, "Life Together: Reclaiming the Ministry of Small Groups" by Christine Anderson.

Every church has far more work than any one person can do. Even a team of professionals is not enough. The New Testament solution was for every member to be a minister. Though the priesthood of all believers was a key idea in the Reformation, it is little practised today. Following secular models, churches usually organize around the clergy, who are paid by the laity to do the ministry. Paul Stevens argues that, according to Scripture, the primary task of a Christian leader is not to do the work but to equip the saints to do it. Exploring new options for pastors, tentmakers and laypeople, this book provides structures and strategies to best equip all the saints for ministry.
Equipping The Saints is based on Ephesians 4:12, and designed to be a devotional for spiritual growth for believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, and Ministry preparation. It is also meant to assist the reader in being a minister of reconciliation for the Lord Jesus Christ, to a lost and dying world.
Many churches lack a structured Christian Education program outside of the regular Sunday school and midweek Bible Study, which leaves a large void in the lives of believers and forces them to adopt erroneous views and visions for the personal ministries and gifts. For the Perfecting of the Saints seeks to fill that void and empower individual Biblical-based education, including revelatory information (revelation) to make their lives more relevant (application). This practical guide assists in addressing the ministry gift and the impact that it has on ones personal, professional, and ministerial life. Author Jennifer Gilbert explains the five ministry gifts in great depth and detail, Pastor, teacher, evangelist, and Apostle. She examines them from the Biblical standpoint in addition to applying her thirty years of experience in the ministry and her fifteen years in educationspiritually and professionally combined. She considers the characteristics, both personally and spiritually, that are attributes of each gift. Further, she explains many of the ways that one can develop their God-given gift and calling, the danger of detouring from their calling, and most importantly, the manners by which each one operates. With the publication of For the Perfecting of the Saints, there is no longer an excuse for a lack of knowledge because there are in-depth explanations and examinations of Biblical examples that will enable anyone to use their God-given gifts effectively.
