Synopsis

Why Standards? That’s the question. Companies, sports teams, and the military all have standards of conduct and lifestyle expectations, but for the church to make any demands on its ministers is frowned upon and even called cultish. In this book Jay Nembhard will explain the framework or spirit behind standards so the reader understands it is not just a bunch of rules like the Pharisees of Jesus’ day. You will learn about the reasons, the goals, and the practical application of standards. Standards for ministry is not a new concept. The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God's church? (1 Timothy 3:1-5) What does this mean in our modern world? Who holds us accountable? Jay Nembhard answers these questions and gives a biblical approach to controversial topics such as:TithingTVFaithfulnessDrinking WineThis book is a great tool for personal study, reference, and the instruction of disciples. If you find it hard to articulate why you live by certain standards, this book will help give a clear, sound explanation.
