Leadership Essentials for Christian Ministries
Church Leadership & Ministry
“This excellent book recognizes that ministry effectiveness results from a scripturally grounded leadership that understands the essential link between sound theory and best practice. It identifies multiple leadership tasks essential for effective organizational leadership while not ignoring the need for robust people development within the ministry. Leadership Essentials for Christian Ministries will serve both students of leadership and leaders in Christian ministries seeking a concise overview of practical leadership essentials.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This expertly written book does more than tell the complex story of the prophet Ezekiel. Rather, its focus is on a broader, grander theme, comparatively illustrating how the Ezekiel story connects to other Old Testament prophets as well as to New Testament narratives, including Revelation. Its sweep is majestic if not breathtaking, pointing ultimately to the cosmic center, Jesus the Christ, as King of kings and Lord of lords. An inspiring and very helpful read.”
Theology
“Larry Helyer's book is based on sound biblical scholarship and careful archaeological research. His approach effectively connects Old and New Testament 'mountaintop' stories to practical theological understanding. For example, the chapters on Mt. Sinai (Ten Commandments) and the Mount of the Beatitudes (The Beatitudes) and his subsequent discussion of holiness in the context of both, is worth the price of the whole book. I heartily recommend this deeply satisfying effort.”
Apologetics
“truth claims” of other worldviews, and discusses their inadequacies for providing hope for a world engaged in ever increasing upheaval. I’m persuaded that reading this book will become an important part of the Christian university curriculum.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Larry Helyer’s most recent book about the intriguing story of David goes beyond giving us the usual selected highlights about the shepherd boy who became a successful king. . . . The book clearly articulates the breadth and impact of David’s legacy, accomplishments, and flaws, as a king, poet/musician, and as a practical theologian reflecting his abiding love for God, no matter what.”
The Life and Witness of Jeremiah
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Dr. Helyer presents Jeremiah as a book highly relevant and timely for the modern context. His approach, primarily topical, focuses on key themes of the book. His presentation is supported by solid biblical scholarship, well researched supplemental material, and coupled with a balanced presentation of supporting Old and New Testament texts. I especially appreciated the emphasis of Chapter Four, which deals with the tests used to determine true prophets from false ones.”
Discipleship & Christian Education
“This highly recommended volume provides one of the best answers I have read to the question, ‘Why is a comprehensive Christian liberal arts education essential for families and the Church?’ . . . Christian education's ultimate purpose is to cultivate eternal wisdom through acquisition of truth found in all the disciplines for the restoration of the imago Dei in God's people.”
