Be Confident In Your Calling
Nathan B Thomas
2013
Be Confident In Your Calling is a wonderful book that will be great for those who want to work in Ministry, and for those who just simply question their calling in life.
This book will be a great addition to any Christian Library, illustrated with bible verses, that speak of growing closer to God, and with Chapters dealing with both how beautiful and how hard prayer can be, the book helps you to grow in Christ in a very real way if you allow it too. Added to your Bible devotions this book would be an excellent addition to that as well.
Nathan B Thomas reminds us in this book that if we base our calling on anyone or anything else but Christ it will most certainly fail. We are also reminded that God's second most pressing concern is our relationship with other human beings.
Be Confident In Your Calling, reminds us to look to Christ for our callings, and of course it reminds us to be confident in our calling.
For anyone wanting to grow closer to Christ this book will be a great addition.

The Art Of Storytelling will help you if you need to be able to tell a better story, or give a speech. Whether you are asked to tell a Story at Church, or teach a class. The Art of Story Telling could benefit you.
