LFCDC Launches Spiritual Outreach Arm!


March 4, 2013

Today, LFCDC launched its spiritual outreach arm, STRAIGHT-UP WORD! MINISTRIES, with the publication of its first commissioned book, Leadership Lessons from New Testament Letters: Romans – Jude.

Leadership Lessons from New Testament Letters is a verse-by-verse explanation of and commentary on the books of Romans, 1 & 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, James, 1 & 2 Peter, 1, 2 & 3 John and Jude.

“I had three reasons for writing this book,” said author, John Elliott Churchville. “I wanted to set forth in understandable terms the gospel revealed to the apostles by the Lord Jesus. I wanted to provide clear and cogent explanations of the texts that are accessible to all readers; and I wanted to extract the most relevant leadership lessons from the letters that are especially useful to people who want to grow their leadership abilities and maximize their personal spiritual development.”

“This book takes you by the hand,” Churchville said, “leads you through each New Testament letter and draws out the leadership and wisdom lessons found in each. Leadership Lessons from New Testament Letters is my seventh book and it is three books in one. It’s a Bible commentary second to none. It’s a devotional guide that will push you to grow a more intimate relationship with Jesus. And it’s a leadership coaching guide that will help you turn your leadership potential into leader productivity.”

Straight-Up Word! Ministries exists to produce biblically-based leadership training resources (books, CDs, DVDs); to provide leadership training for effective community organizing efforts; and to promote the Thrift Mindset® model of leadership and personal spiritual development.

Leadership Lessons from New Testament Letters: Romans – Jude is available in Kindle eBook format, as well as soft-cover book format from Amazon.com and CreateSpace.com/4169164
