Muchas personas no creen que Dios tenga el control de sus vidas. Piensan que son los capitanes de su propio barco y que realmente no necesitan a Dios. Otros creen que Dios podría existir pero que no está involucrado activamente en sus asuntos personales o en los asuntos del mundo. Es una forma sutil de deísmo— la creencia de que Dios le dio cuerda al reloj y luego lo dejó hasta que se le acabó la cuerda. Según este punto de vista, Dios comenzó el proceso cuando creó el mundo, pero ahora simplemente permite que las cosas sucedan naturalmente sin ninguna guía o influencia.

¿Cuántas veces he tratado de empezar mi día sin la presencia de Dios y Su mano que me guía? Rápidamente me he dado cuenta de que me falta la fuerza y la vitalidad, sintiéndome frustrado y sin dirección. He aprendido por experiencia propia que necesito tener un tiempo devocional a diario, necesito alimentarme de la Palabra de Dios, recibir la llenura del Espíritu y sobre todo conocer a Dios más íntimamente.

Este libro es una crónica sobre el Grupo Pequeño o Movimiento Celular, partiendo de la época de Jesús hasta llegar a la explosión celular en los tiempos modernos. Comiskey destaca las fortalezas y debilidades de estos movimientos históricos de grupos pequeños, y aplica estos principios a la iglesia actual. Crecerás en gratitud y en entendimiento de los valores clave de las células a causa de aquellos pioneros que allanaron el camino.

Establecen una estrategia adecuada y planifican acciones concretas para que se produzca una explosión de liderazgo. En las páginas de este libro el autor estudia los modelos utilizados por estas iglesias y analiza paso a paso cuáles son sus planes y estrategias para conseguir que los líderes se multipliquen.

Liderar un grupo celular de éxito y mantener en sus reuniones un clima dinámico no es únicamente cuestión de voluntad: es cuestión de técnica. Muchos líderes de células no se dan cuenta de que, con frecuencia, su fracaso a la hora de crear una atmósfera excepcional, llena de poder de Dios y válida para transformar vidas, es debido a que ignoran el modo de hacerlo. Cualquier líder de un grupo celular encontrará fácil lograr en las reuniones un ambiente agradable y conseguir que los asistentes no tan sólo salgan con ganas de volver, sino incluso de traer a otras personas.

Do people expectantly return to your group meetings every week? Do you have fun and experience joy during your meetings? Is everyone participating in discussion and ministry?

Now the secret is out. By implementing these time-tested ideas, your group meetings will become the hot item of your members' week. They will go home wanting more and return each week bringing new people with them.

Empowered to Lead equips small group leaders to more effectively facilitate their groups. Each of the 18 chapters covers a distinct, essential aspect of small group leadership.

This book is packed with valuable material, designed to help you make more and better disciples of Jesus Christ.

En este libro, he señalado ocho principios y prioridades que ayudarán al creyente a vivir una vida cristiana victoriosa.

Everyone has at least one spiritual gift, according the Bible. But many don’t know what that gift is or how to use it. This book provides clear steps and guidelines to find and activate spiritual gifts. The eight lessons offer biblical insight on what the gifts are and practical suggestions on how to use them. This book will especially help those leading a small group to know how to discern the different gifts among group members - and then to help each person activate that gift.

Christians desire to grow in their relationship with God. They want to flourish, to experience victory in their Christian lives. They want to live in the overcoming power that the cross provides. But they are stuck. They are like my friend, John, who works 60 hours per week, sits in two hours of traffic each day, and carries the burdens of the world on his shoulders. He and his wife, Jenny, love each other, or at least they used to. They now spend their time together carting their kids to activities after driving through Taco Bell for dinner.

My favorite coach is John Wooden. During his time coaching college basketball with the UCLA Bruins, Wooden won 10 NCAA titles, including seven in a row from 1967 to 1973. His UCLA teams also had a record winning streak of 88 games, four perfect 30-0 seasons, and won 38 straight games in NCAA Tournaments. Yet, Wooden wasn’t overly focused on winning basketball games. He was more concerned about building character in his players. He stimulated his players to be successful in their school studies, attitudes, and behavior - which ultimately resulted in success on the basketball court.

If we are going to have a victorious church tomorrow, we must focus on the youth today. In this book, Comiskey lays out the biblical base for youth ministry, highlights the felt needs of today’s youth, and then shows why small groups are the most effective way to make youth disciples today. Comiskey explains the difference between inter-generational cells and student-led groups, the equipping process for youth leaders, how to coach leaders, and how to get started in youth cell ministry. Comiskey also describes common errors in youth ministry and how to avoid them.

We've entitled this audiobook You Can Coach because we believe that coaching is more about passing on what you've lived and holding others accountable in the process. Coaching doesn't require a higher degree, special talent, unique personality, or a particular spiritual gift. We believe, in fact, that God wants coaching to become a movement. We long to see the day in which every pastor has a coach and in turn is coaching someone else. In this audiobook, you'll hear three coaches who have successfully coached pastors for many years.

Small group resources tend to overlook the spiritual side of small group leadership. And yet most would agree that spiritual preparation is the most important aspect of leading a small group. Only God’s supernatural power can draw people to the truth and liberate them to be all that God wants them to be. The key distinction of this audiobook is the spiritual perspective it gives to small group ministry. In a Holy Spirit-charged atmosphere, cell leaders are best raised up and members are encouraged to minister in their giftedness.

In this ground-breaking audiobook, Joel Comiskey challenges pastors and leaders to move from simply educating children to forming them into disciples who make disciples. Comiskey lays out the Biblical base for children's ministry and then encourages pastors and leaders to formulate their own vision and philosophy for ministry to children based on the Biblical text.

Most of the modern day cell church movement is biblical, dynamic, and positive. Sadly, errors and false assumptions have also crept in to confuse and lead astray an otherwise healthy movement. Joel Comiskey, in this ground-breaking book, exposes the myths of the cell church movement and then offers positive principles and insights to guide churches and leaders on the right path. Each chapter begins with a unique insight from a worldwide cell church leader who will share decades of wisdom in working with cell groups.

This audiobook clearly explains how to plant churches that are simple enough to keep on reproducing and even grow into a movement of churches. Planting Churches that Reproduce is the fruit of Comiskey’s extensive research and personal experience (three church plants in a wide variety of settings).

Jesús discipuló a sus seguidores por medio de relaciones interpersonales - y espera que nosotros hagamos lo mismo. A lo largo de las Escrituras encontramos abundantes exhortaciones a servirnos unos a otros. Este audiolibro le mostrará cómo hacerlo. La vida de aislamiento de la cultura occidental de hoy crea un deseo por vivir en comunidad y el mundo entero anhela ver discípulos relacionales en acción.

Facilitate highlights the key dynamics of small groups that will give a leader confidence to minister to those in the group. Facilitate teaches a leader how to listen well, ask questions, train others, involve people, and prepare for the meeting. This audiobook shows a potential leader how to develop new leaders to continue the discipleship process. It is excellent to use both in a Sunday school class and one on one. This audiobook has eight lessons, full of practical questions and applications.

Ralph Neighbour repeatedly says, “Theology must breed methodology.”Joel Comiskey has arrived at the same conclusion. Biblical truth is the only firm foundation for anything we do. Without a biblical base, we don’t have a strong under-pinning upon which we can hang our ministry and philosophy. We can plod through most anything when we know that God is stirring us to behave biblically.
