Lead Pastor: Biblical Thinking in the Church that Keeps Jesus in the Lead - Paperback

In her book, Beholding and Becoming, Ruth Chou Simons succinctly says, "What we chase shapes our race." This book is designed to help the local church chase after Jesus by thinking biblically about the Christ-Church relationship.Before the foundation of the world God ordained the church, Jesus then bought Her with His own blood, and then sent the Holy Spirit to be with her always. To this very hour He "knocks" with a heart to be our first love and welcomed guest.While church ministry may have many dimensions, it has only one driver-intimacy with Jesus. An acrostic for A.B.I.D.E as mentioned in John 15 could be: "Affectual Biblical Intimacy Drives Everything."
