  • The Crisis of the Deeper Life
    The Crisis of the Deeper Life By REV. GEORGE P. PARDINGTON, Ph.D. Author of "The Still Small Voice", "Outline Studies in Christian Doctrine", "Outline Studies in Church History", etc. With an Introduction by REV. WALTER M. TURNBULL, D.D. 1925 The Christian Alliance Publishing Company 260 West 44th St., New York, N. Y. CONTENTS. Introduction Chapter I. All in Christ. Chapter II. Newness of Life. Chapter III. In the Wilderness. Chapter IV. The Poison of Sin. Chapter V. The Antidote for Sin- Holiness in the Old Testament. Chapter VI. The Antidote for Sin- Holiness in the New Testament. Chapter VII. The Vision of Victory. Chapter VIII. The Realization of Victory. Chapter IX. The Law of Reckoning. Chapter X. The Life of Abiding. Chapter XI. The Broken Circuit. Chapter XII. The Uplook and the Outlook. INTRODUCTION The author of this volume, Rev. George P. Pardington, Ph.D., one of the most gifted and devoted of men, allowed his life to fall into the ground and die that it might bring forth much fruit. After a marvelous experience of healing which released him from years of helpless suffering he secured the most thorough training which America could offer and then gladly spent himself in humble sacrificial service as a teacher of Christian workers and missionaries. His best years were consecrated to the ministry of the Word in the classrooms of the Missionary Training Institute at Nyack. To him fell the heavy duty of carrying the main courses and supplying the unbroken stream of inspiration which held restless young people to the necessary training process.

Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Lagos, Nigeria Reprinted by Deeper Christian Life Ministry Northern European Headquarters P.O. Box 737, 2501 CS The Hague, The Netherlands Email: [email protected] © 2017 PASTOR W.F. KUMUYI Founder & General Superintendent Deeper Life Bible Church Worldwide ABOUT PASTOR W.F. KUMUYI Pastor (Dr.) William Folorunso Kumuyi, previously a professor of mathematics at the University of Lagos, is the founding pastor of the Deeper Life Bible Church and General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Worldwide. The Church with its headquarters in Lagos officially began on November 7, 1982 with a simple message: “Jesus transforms lives - bringing not only healing but a complete and fully formed Christian character.” By 1988, the Conference of Pentecostal and Evangelical Churches worldwide recognized Deeper Life Bible Church as the single largest church in Africa, and the third largest single congregation in the world. The phenomenal growth of the church tends to overshadow its small beginning. With 15 adult members in 1973, Kumuyi began an interdenominational weekly Bible study in Lagos. By 1975, this fledgling group quickly grew to 1500 people who assembled faithfully every Monday to hear the systematic, expository and rich teaching of the scriptures with practical application that is immediately helpful and relevant to listeners. Less than a decade later, the Bible Study group became what is now the Deeper Life Bible Church and grew to 350,000 members at the Lagos headquarters church with mission work in 42 countries of the world.

  • An Analysis of the Need for a Congregational Songwriting Manual
    LIBERTY BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY AN ANALYSIS OF THE NEED FOR A CONGREGATIONAL SONGWRITING MANUAL FOR THE EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY A Thesis Project Submitted to Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF MINISTRY By Travis Reginald Joseph Doucette Lynchburg, Virginia April 21, 2014 Copyright © 2014 by Travis Reginald Joseph Doucette. All Rights Reserved. ii LIBERTY BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY THESIS PROJECT APPROVAL SHEET ______________________________ GRADE ______________________________ DR. VERNON M. WHALEY - MENTOR ______________________________ DR. W. DOUGLAS CRAWLEY - READER APRIL 21, 2014 iii ABSTRACT AN ANALYSIS OF THE NEED FOR A CONGREGATIONAL SONGWRITING MANUAL FOR THE EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY Travis R.J. Doucette Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary, 2014 Mentor: Dr. Vernon M. Whaley Music has always been an essential part of the faith journey of God’s people. The modern worship movement over the past twenty years has created an industry for new songs of worship. In conjunction with advances in technology, more than ever, songwriters have been able to easily create well-produced compositions. It is the author’s opinion that with the massive influx of music, the craft of well-composed, singable tunes matched with theologically accurate lyrics has been largely neglected. There is a need for an academic songwriting manual, teaching students and worship leaders how to write congregational songs for the evangelical church. Through interviewing and collecting songwriting wisdom from well-known, current praise and worship songwriters, educators, pastors and producers, this thesis defends the need for a songwriting manual that explains how to craft lyrics and melodies that serve the evangelical church and provide students with exercises and assignments to craft their skill.
