Journal of Modern Ministry, Vol. 6 Issue 1 Winter 2009
Overview
Journal of Modern Ministry covers a wide spectrum of topics that are applicable to anyone wishing to pursue good Christian living. Highly accessible to all, this journal contains practical information on all aspects of life, as well as a vast array of theological materials.
Founded by senior writer Dr. Jay Adams, the Journal of Modern Ministry was first published in May 2004 with two issues, and continued in 2006 with three issues planned each year. The extraordinary group of ministering author-editors involved in this journal also solicit articles from the finest men known today for their uncompromising biblical emphasis, and receive from lesser known writers articles they believe worthy of publication.
Thumbing through stacks and stacks of journals is now a thing of the past. You will no longer need to search hundreds of pages of print to find an article on the topic you were looking for, because Logos Bible Software will do the work for you instantaneously. Whether you are a pastor, scholar, counselor, or are simply wishing to advance your knowledge of Godly living, Journal of Modern Ministry in Logos is exactly what you need in order to assist you in your ministry.

Top Highlights
“Selfishness is the hardest sin in the world to overcome.” (Page 99)
“The same principle may, in part, be applied to our love for God. As Richard Baxter, the prolific Puritan writer, put it,” (Page 79)
“It is possible to give away all of your personal possessions and still not have love.” (Page 78)
“There is no longer an earthly nation in covenant with God that can expect the material blessings of the covenant. Because we live as strangers in a hostile world, we may suffer economic persecution because of our faithfulness to God.” (Page 54)
“That is to say, our greatest sin of commission out of which all others flow is selfishness. Practically speaking, it is the selfishness in our hearts that generates all our other sins.” (Page 79)
