Am I Called to Ministry?

Pastor Brad Wheeler addresses the shortcomings of the word “calling” when talking with aspiring pastors about their desire to pursue ministry. Wheeler suggests a 4-part process as a better alternative—cultivate godly ambition, display godly attributes, develop an aptitude for teaching and discipleship, and receive the affirmation of a local church.

Written from personal experience, this book is designed to encourage men trying to discern their “next steps” to pastoral ministry. Free from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, in partnership with 9Marks and Crossway.

The Easter Stories booklet by Kevin DeYoung is a perfect way to teach children about the life-changing story of Jesus’s death and resurrection. 

TGC has shared Leland Ryken’s Christian Guides to the Classics to help you read select works of classic literature through a Christian lens, including Shakespeare, Milton, Dickens, Tolstoy, and more.

Crossway has an entire website dedicated to their curriculum for The Biggest Story. It features free videos, weekly lesson plans, and printable activities for teachers and families.
