Song Lyrics online. This unique resource package includes a CD collection of 14 indigenous, professionally produced, Indonesian songs called Hearts of Faith as well as the informative and compelling Cry Indonesia video which features the songs from the CD, complete with subtitles.

"In the last few weeks, I have been able to obtain…a popularized and shortened version of a Doctoral thesis…The original title was, Poetic Images and Forms in the Sayings of Jesus, by Masumi Toyotome, and the currently available version is "The Poetry of Jesus". Chapter one deals with Poetic forms of Jesus; Chapter Two deals with Poetic Images of Jesus. It is available from the Missionary Strategy Agency, 1605 Elizabeth St., Pasadena, California 91104 The cost was a meager USD $5.00 plus postage. So, for you Poets out there, this might be a good one to get." (Thanks Paul!)

Dr. Schaeffer was a Christian theologian and philosopher who also authored a number of books on theology, philosophy, general culture and the arts. The L'Abri communities are study centers in Europe, Asia and America where individuals have the opportunity to seek answers to honest questions about God and the significance of human life.

*****************************************************************************************
Harp & Bowl Network The Holy Spirit has laid it upon the hearts of ministries across the nation and around the world to begin 24 hour prayer ministries. Benny Hinn has begun one. Mike Bickle in Kansas City has begun one. Others are starting in Africa and Europe as people have responded to the call within their hearts that it's time to begin praying; it's time to start prayer ministries unto the Lord. The Harp & Bowl Network is a directory of such meetings of prayer. These meetings are prophetic in nature with corporate worship, spontaneous singing the song of the Lord, scripture reading, and prophetic prayers and prophecy as the Lord leads. It's awesome as the teams minister unto the Lord and the presence of the Lord comes in their midst.

Free Arts for Abused Children is a non-profit organization dedicated to bring the healing powers of the arts into the lives of abused, neglected and at risk children and their families. Through dance, drama, writing, music, painting, sculpting, photography, and other outlets of creativity, we will help children and families express emotions, gain self-confidence and develop positive methods of communication.(Editor's Note) - Is this not the type of thing that we as believers can also be using to minister to abused children and refugees in many situations around the world??!)
