The Presbyterian Handbook
PC(USA), Geneva Press
Editors of this whimsical yet informative small book comment, "Following Jesus is hard enough without having to navigate the faith journey alone. Everyone needs a companion, and we hope this book is a companion for you."
In this book the reader will discover a combination of reliable, historical, and theological information alongside some fun facts and practical tips on being a churchgoing follower of Jesus Christ, all presented in that "oh-so-Presbyterian," down-to-earth, tongue-in-cheek sort of way.
It provides plenty of historical and theological information about Presbyterian beliefs but also humor Presbyterian and Reformed understanding of the Christian life.
A perfect resource for youth, adults, students, families, and anyone interested in learning about life in the church, such as:
|
How to get to know your pastor |
|
How to pray |
|
How to listen to a sermon |
|
How to explain predestination to your friends! |
|
What to bring to a church potluck - by regions |
and...
More "Presbyterian Stuff!"
For Your Children: Creating Communities of Faith in Our Families
by Martha Bettis Gee
"For the promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far away, everyone whom the Lord our God calls." (Acts 2:39)
Family relationships are places where God's love can be reflected and faith can be shared. this book is based on the idea that families serve as small-group ministry for the children present and offers tools for pastors and educators as they serve in ministry with these small groups.
