100 Life-Challenging Devotionals: Emphasizes Evangelism and Christian Growth by Pat MannThese devotionals are intended to evangelize, educate, and inspire individuals to greater Christian growth. Some of them are used as tools in leading others to come to faith in God through Jesus Christ. They do not follow any theme throughout, so they are in no particular order. Users should choose one they deem appropriate for the occasion for which it will be presented. Use the titles as a guide to choose just the right one. These devotionals are used by some groups as a prelude to a Bible study class or as an opening, preceding a committee or board meeting, either for a religious group or a civil gathering. They are useful in nursing homes, pastors or auxiliary planning meetings, youth events, and campfire events. Some of the devotionals are appropriate to use for a short children's sermon. Travel groups enjoy a brief morning devotional before the day's activities begin, either in motel lobbies or on a travel bus. They also make great gifts for any occasion, such as graduations, birthdays, bridal showers, Christmas, Mother's Day/Father's Day, Pastor Recognition Sunday, or just a gift that says, "Thank you for all you do." Think about adding this book as kind of a "stocking stuffer" add-on with another gift appropriate for the occasion. Some individuals enjoy using the devotionals in this book for their own personal "closet time with the Lord." "These are written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name" (John 20:31 KJV).Pat Mann has taught Bible lessons in many different settings, beginning at a very young age. Such settings include local church Bible classes, Vacation Bible School, Christian camps for youth and children, home Bible study groups, a thirty-five year weekly Bible lesson presented at the local county jail which continues to this day, and weekly Bible classes at two local nursing homes. She has served as education director at a local church, being in charge of the education program for all ages at that church. She has occasionally filled the pulpit in churches whose pastors are away, or for churches who currently have no pastor. She has always found it easier to write her own Bible lessons and devotionals rather than using pre-printed materials. She has served Woman’s Missionary Union, leading in missions education for youth at her local church, as well as serving as area director and a consultant on state and national levels of Women’s Missionary Union. She was commissioned by WMU to write a missions day camp unit used nationally, and om another occasion assisted in planning a year’s curriculum, also for WMU. She served as chaplain of a local nursing home for ten years, and continues to volunteer leading chapel services twice a week.AMAZONhttps://patmannbooks.com/https://www.ecpublishingllc.com/
