by John C. Maxwell«Todo lo que sé sobre el liderazgo lo aprendí de la Biblia».Cuando el autor best seller John C. Maxwell comenzó a enseñar liderazgo a personas en la iglesia, a menudo se sorprendieron. Era obvio que era joven e inexperto, pero las ideas que transmitía parecían ir más allá de lo que debería saber. Más tarde, cuando comenzó a hablar a un público más general, la gente preguntó: «¿Dónde aprendió usted todo esto?».John estaba feliz de contarles su secreto: todo lo que sabía sobre el liderazgo lo aprendió de la Biblia. La Biblia no solo es el mejor libro jamás escrito, sino que es el mejor libro sobre el liderazgo jamás escrito. Todo lo que pueda desear aprender sobre el liderazgo (visión, propósito, estrategia, comunicación, actitud, aliento, mentoría, seguimiento) se puede encontrar en las páginas de la Palabra de Dios.En este estudio de veintiuna lecciones, John lo guía a través de las mismas escrituras fundamentales que han formado la base del trabajo de su vida. Cada lección incluye:• La definición de la ley: una breve descripción e introducción a la ley.• Estudios de casos: tres estudios bíblicos, incluyendo líderes como Moisés, Josué, David, Elías, Ester, María, Pablo y Jesús, que revelan e ilustran la ley.• Preguntas de estudio: preguntas de reflexión y aplicación para ayudarlo a profundizar en las historias de los hombres y mujeres en las Escrituras y aprender de ellas.• Perspicacia y reflexión del liderazgo: preguntas para ayudarlo a evaluar y mejorar sus propias habilidades de liderazgo.• Cómo llevar a la acción: lecciones prácticas y orientación para ayudarlo a incorporar cada lección en su vida diaria.• Preguntas de discusión en grupo: preguntas para ayudarlo a aprender y procesar el material de estudio de la Biblia con otras personas de ideas afines que desean crecer en liderazgo.• El liderazgo es para todos, porque cada persona que acepta a Cristo está llamada a influir en los demás. Así que aprenda de los mejores líderes que han vivido: los hombres y las mujeres en la Biblia.

24 Ways to Explain the Gospel
by Rose Publishing"Why do I need to be saved?" "From what?" These are common questions in today's society. Salvation can be a difficult concept to explain to a postmodern thinker. Fortunately, God's Word provides many ways of looking at our situation, and at God's solution. 24 Ways to Explain the Gospel contains dozens of word pictures and illustrations that will help you communicate the gospel in ways everyone can understand.The Bible is full of illustrations that use common experiences, such as gardening, having debt, a campfire, or joining a family, to explain what Jesus accomplished on the cross. In 24 Ways to Explain the Gospel, you will see 24 metaphors from the Bible, positive and negative examples, and several illustrations that show how the positive/negative examples can be explained. (A metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase compares or describes something. For example: “A mighty fortress is our God” - “mighty fortress” is a metaphor to help to describe God.) Below is an example from 24 Ways to Explain the Gospel:• Metaphor: Light - Jesus is the light that shines on our path toward God (John 12:46)•Positive examples: Light - Jesus is the light of the world (John 8:12)•Jesus' light shines in our heart (2 Cor. 4:4-6)•Children of the light (Eph. 5:8)•Jesus has rescued us from darkness (Col. 1:13)•Putting aside the deeds of darkness (Romans 13:12)•Negative examples: Dark - People living in darkness have seen a great light (Matt. 4:16)•People loved darkness (John 3:19)•Illustrations - A campfire in the wilderness provides light, warmth, safety and sustenance. •The light helps campers to find their way back to camp. It provides warmth for the night. It keeps the animals away. It cooks food and purifies water.•In a similar way, Jesus provides us with a guiding light, warmth, safety, and sustenance for our journey of life. Discussion questions for 24 Ways to Explain the GospelFor a group study, volunteers might take turns reading a paragraph. • Read panels 1-4. Which of these ways of explaining the Gospel helps you personally see the good news differently? Was there one that stood out? If so, why?• Read panels 5-6, paying attention to the word "redemption" and what it meant in the biblical world. Which metaphor of redemption connected with you the most? Why? •Read panel 7. Imagine yourself explaining the Gospel to someone using one of these plans. Which one fits your style the most? Which one fits your friend? What would you do differently?•Read panels 8-10, and discuss the idea of citizenship. How does the concept of being a citizen of the kingdom of heaven appeal to people today?
