Dancing With The Law
$11.99In a world where No one tells me what to do and I am my own authority, the Ten Commandments quickly find their way to the trash heap. For most of us, the words surrounding law rule, restriction, regulation, requirement, code, commandment, covenant, must, ought, shall, will are simply not our favorite words to hear. They are parental words, court words, conflict words. We use them only when we have to; otherwise, we willingly hold them at a distance.
But the Old Testament people of God had a different take on law. They took their copy of the law their God had given them, clutched it to their chests, and danced with it. They observed it daily in their relationships and required their young to memorize it. And when a copy of the law had grown ragged and old, they had a special ceremony to retire it. They buried it with all the dignity of a beloved grandparent s body.
In Dancing with the Law, author Dan Boone challenges us to, like the ancient people of God, look at law as a sacred gift that points the way to the life God intended. Through his earnest exploration of the Ten Commandments, he offers us a new perspective on law one that makes us dance with freedom, liberty, and the gift of life.

Notes
BibliographyAdditional Info
In our world, stories matter. Methods and systems are beneficial because they provide structure and help keep us on the right road; but the motivation and courage to keep walking the road, come from the stories we hear and see and experience-stories that inspire hope and bring us face-to-face with God.For ministers, the call to preach is a call into a story that forms and shapes us. It’s about stumbling into revelation as life unwinds and scripture unfolds. It’s about listening to God’s voice and then sharing it with others. It’s about recognizing that when people gather to hear a sermon, God speaks. And it’s about understanding that when He speaks, He speaks through you.
Preaching the Story That Shapes Us is more than a textbook on preaching. It’s an empowering call for preachers to present a picture of the kingdom of God already at work among us, recognizing that the work of preaching is not just about arranging words-it’s about people. With elegant prose and crafted reason, Dan Boone weaves together scripture, personal narrative, structure, and theological reflection to provide a satisfying, efficient guide to narrative preaching. From exploring the importance of biography to walking readers through creative processes that shape the sermon, Boone shows preachers how to awaken lives and share the stories of God that reveal who we are and lead us to who we will be.

Worship Plot : Finding Unity In Our Common Story
$11.99Are there rumbling disagreements in your church about worship?
Do arguments break out over whether or not to use drums, sing hymns, or illustrate sermons with movie clips?
Are you tired of the worship wars?
Differences over worship styles have caused many to change churches or skip worship altogether. These Divisions in the Body of Christ are not only discouraging but also detrimental to the true meaning of worship.
Worship is not about personal preference or platform performance. True worship flows from the heart of God. It is the shared life of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit inviting us to step into a stream of celebration, thanksgiving, and love-a stream that connects us to God and to each other.
The Worship Plot shows how to combine the diversity of our church family into a unifying story that celebrates our fellowship and love in Christ.

Answers For Chicken Little
$12.99Can you read the Book of Revelation without fearing the sky is falling? Do end-time predictions make you shudder in your shoes? Too many Christians shrink from the last book of the Bible because of all the gloom and doom surrounding it. Beasts, blood, and pestilence color its pages, but what does it all mean? Is this the end of the world, or is it a new beginning? In Answers For Chicken Little, Dan Boone clears away all the speculative clutter and clarifies the message of Revelation in a plain and friendly way that anyone can understand.
Here is a responsible interpretation of Revelation that replaces cataclysmic predictions with a compelling vision-a vision of Jesus and the abundant hope-filled life He wants for all His people.
