Le Pouvoir de la Priere de Minuit
by Gabriel Agbo Bodart ChristinePrier la nuit. Oui, en cas de souci, si vous avez un besoin particulier, ce pourrait bien être la solution. Quand vous priez la nuit, vous attaquez les démopns au moment où ils sont le plus actifs. Car eux aussi, ils planifient des choses la nuit pour détruire les plans de Dieu pour vous. Dieu a un projet pour vous, un plan de bonheur et non de malheur pour que vous ayez de l'avenir et de l'espérance (Jérémie 29:11). Mais le diable ne veut pas que vous connaissiez ce secret....

Suivez Megan alors qu'elle essaie d'en apprendre davantage sur sa sortie d'école dans le passé et lisez les conseils que son guide spirituel lui donne sur la meilleure façon de le faire.
The Lead Books of Granada
by Elizabeth DraysonHailed as early Christian texts as important as the Dead Sea Scrolls, yet condemned by the Vatican as Islamic heresies, the Lead books of Granada, written on discs of lead and unearthed on a Granadan hillside, weave a mysterious tale of duplicity and daring set in the religious crucible of sixteenth-century Spain. This book evaluates the cultural status and importance of these polyvalent, ambiguous artefacts which embody many of the dualities and paradoxes inherent in the racial and religious dilemmas of Early Modern Spain. Using the words of key individuals, and set against the background of conflict between Spanish Christians and Moriscos in the late fifteen-hundreds, The Lead Books of Granada tells a story of resilient resistance and creative ingenuity in the face of impossibly powerful negative forces, a resistance embodied by a small group of courageous, idealistic men who lived a double life in Granada just before the expulsion of the Moriscos.

Lead, Kindly Light: Gandhi And The Way To Peace
by Vincent SheeanIn this book, the author of Personal History, Vincent Sheean, demonstrates that Gandhi’s life, work and teaching were for the whole world as well as for India. it is suggested that the terrifying weapon of non-violence, having freed India, might be about to free the world.Though this book is in one sense an attempt to reveal the meaning of Mahatma Gandhi’s power and life and teaching, it is, in a more important sense, the author’s eloquent testament of belief in Gandhi’s mission. Vincent Sheean went to India to ask Gandhi many questions. It was a quest brought on by the failure of every other human institution to supply hope for the future. What he learned there, from Gandhi and others, is of immense, immediate importance to all men everywhere and to the future of humanity.Thoughtful men have begun to see that the only weapon even more awesome than the atom bomb, the only weapon able to contend with it on anything like equal terms, is the irresistible weapon of non-violence conceived by Mahatma Gandhi. Here is the record of its first great success, the story of how it was created, and a clear, sympathetic explanation of the philosophy that brought it into being, indeed made it inevitable.Here, also, are chapters on the background of Hindu philosophy, on Gandhi’s own beliefs and how he applied them, on Gandhi’s progress from an obscure lawyer in South Africa to his position as India’s leader and deliverer and the greatest force for peace at the present time, on the author’s own meetings with Gandhi, the assassination and funeral, both of which he witnessed, and a final chapter of the author’s conclusions on Gandhi’s meaning to the future of world peace in this atomic age.The title of the book comes from Gandhi’s favourite hymn, which was always sung on solemn occasions, including the funeral march to the Ganges.
Lead Like a Shepherd: The Secret to Leading Well (Next Leadership Network)
by Larry OsbornePastor, author, and leadership consultant unpacks instruction for church leaders found in 1 Peter 5:1-4 where they are exhorted to shepherd the flock among them.Some instruction is timeless. Regardless of the age in which we live, certain instruction carries no expiration on its relevance. Pastor, author, and leadership consultant, Larry Osborne has discovered this to be the case with instruction on how to be a good leader. The best, most practical advice comes from the Bible, and in particular, 1 Peter 5:1-4. It's in this short passage where leaders are exhorted to shepherd the flock among them.Unfortunately, most modern leaders have precious little experience tending sheep, and many of the implications that were well understood when Peter penned these words are lost on today's reader. Osborne finds the parallels to be numerous, well-worth reviewing and understanding anew.A shepherd leads them to water even when they fear it. A shepherd never allows one sick lamb to destroy the flock. A shepherd lays down his life for his sheep . . .When leaders truly understand Peter's words of exhortation to lead like a shepherd, then they will begin to see the path that leads them to Leading Well.

Lead Like It Matters to God: Values-Driven Leadership in a Success-Driven World
by Richard StearnsRichard Stearns is a leader who has been tested as a CEO in both secular companies and also as the head of one of the world’s largest Christian ministries. After stints as CEO of Parker Brothers and then Lenox, Stearns accepted the invitation to leave his corporate career to become the president of World Vision US, where he became the longest serving president in their seventy-year history. During his tenure there he implemented corporate best practices, lowering overheads while tripling revenues. His leadership in calling the American church to respond to some of the greatest crises of our time, notably the HIV and AIDS pandemic, and the global refugee crisis, challenged Christians to embrace a bold vision for compassion, mercy, and justice. In Lead Like It Matters to God, Stearns shares the leadership principles he has learned over the course of his remarkable career. As a leader who has navigated both secular and sacred spaces, Stearns claims that the values Christian leaders embrace in their workplaces are actually more important than the results they achieve—that God is more concerned about a leader's character than a leader's success. With wisdom, wit, and biblical teaching, Stearns shares captivating stories of his life journey and unpacks seventeen crucial values that can transform leaders and their organizations. When leaders embody values such as integrity, courage, excellence, forgiveness, humility, surrender, balance, generosity, perseverance, love, and encouragement, they not only improve their witness for Christ, they also shape institutions, influence culture, improve team performance, and create healthy workplaces where people can flourish. Through this book, Stearns will inspire a new generation of Christian leaders to boldly take their values into their workplaces to tangibly demonstrate the character of Christ, the love of Christ, and the truth of Christ as they live out their faith in full view of others.

Lead Like It Matters Workbook: Seven Leadership Principles for a Church That Lasts
by Craig GroeschelIt has been rightly said that "Jesus is the hope of the world." While we can never argue against the importance of the power of the risen Son of God, it is also true that "the local church is the hope of the world." After all, the church is the body of Christ. Jesus manifested himself through the church. And we, as the church, are chosen and called by God to be light in the darkness and give hope to the hopeless.For this reason, it is critical for the body of Christ—both pastors and laypeople alike—to learn how to lead like it matters. In this study guide, which accompanies the book of the same name, pastor and bestselling author Craig Groeschel shares what he has learned in more than twenty-six years of leading LifeChurch. The church began in a borrowed two-car garage, with ratty furnishings and faulty audiovisual equipment, but people were drawn there because they sensed a powerful, life-changing force that Craig calls "it." While exactly what "it" is can be difficult to define, Craig reveals seven factors that contribute to it (or at least don&’t kill it):Sessions include: VisionDivine FocusUnmistakable CamaraderieInnovative MindsWillingness to Fall ShortHearts Focused OutwardKingdom-MindednessCraig also unpacks three important realms that every leader must master: (1) prioritizing mindset over model, (2) creating systems that empower it, and (3) finding a balanced way to lead to stay centered around it. While adopting these seven factors and realms will not guarantee a church will have that "it" factor, it will certainly lead that church toward it. It will help all of us lead like it matters.
