"Greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4). Taking this verse at face value provides the perfect opportunity to prove it in the educational setting of our children, say the authors of Going Public. By nurturing the life and power of Christ within them, students will be ready to stand against negative influences no matter the environment, even bringing light to a dark place. They will also benefit from many of the services that the public school system has to offer. Readers of this practical guide will learn how moms and dads have a strategic role to play in the ongoing development of their school-age children. Discover what the Bible says about education, the three most important things to teach your public-school child, how to shape your child through teachable moments, the importance of getting involved at school, and why everyone should homeschool in addition to public school.

We live in times of urgency. God is moving. This is the time to ... Ask God to light the fire of the Spirit in your life! Pastor Jim Cymbala proclaims that God wants to revive His people. Cymbala knows the difference first hand. Twenty-five years ago his own church, Brooklyn Tabernacle, a church trying to survive with only twenty members, started to pray...God started to move..hundreds of lives were changed by the love of Christ ..and today, they have 6,000 believers in the church. The story of what happened to this church, located in one of the most difficult towns in the US, shows the path to a new spiritual fervor in his church and in his life. 'Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire' shows what the Holy Spirit can do when believers take prayer and evangelism seriously. Like this book reveals, God is moving in ways that change lives when we put aside our priorities, trust in His word and listen to Him. 'This book will make you kneel. Be ready to be provoked and challenged. You can be sure that this book will change you forever.'

Written by a former vice president of Focus on the Family, this is a book for Christians who want to take the high road in the personal and corporate war on culture. Far from a prescription for apathy, this book is a passionate call to Kingdom activity--and our mission as ambassadors to a world Christ died for, not as conquerors who would remake it in our image.
