Foundations for Life-Long SignificanceXulon Press, 2007 - 96 من الصفحات To keep up with the world's goals, men and women are pushed on all levels to abandon morality for materialism. Anxiety over the uncertain economic climate creates pressures for serious compromise. The downsizing of the past few years has left a trail of wounded people grappling with wrenching questions: What is success? What is life? This book will allow the reader to identify with life's challenges by first establishing a relationship with Jesus, then with His help, to implement practical stepping stones that will produce spiritual maturity and fruitfulness in the major areas of life. An entire generation is searching for practical, workable tools that can guide them through the treacherous spiritual shoals lining the fast track to success. With life as God intended, they can move past their fears, beyond mediocrity, to live an exhilarating life filled with laser-intense purpose! Dr. Peter Angier has served with The Navigators for over 33 years, of which 13 years were spent in Lebanon and Jordan mentoring men. Following the 1975 Civil War in Beirut, he served as Pastor of Evangelism and Missions at First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood; later as Executive Director of Gospel Literature International (GLINT); then Pastor of Evangelism and Assimilation at Lake Avenue Church in Pasadena, California. Peter's education includes Master of Arts degree and Doctor of Philosophy in Biblical Studies from the California Graduate School of Theology. He received a Proclamation Service Award for 50 years of Christian ministry by the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles County. Peter and his wife, Ida, have two grown sons and eleven grandchildren. They reside in Glendale, California. Currently, he mentors business and professionals throughout the Greater Los Angeles area in biblical truths. |
