Blown away! Acts 2:2

If you are looking for a book to fan the flames of your church, study group, Sunday school class, or just for personal devotion, this is it! It is by far the best I have read in many years. It has challenged me to examine my motives and see where my walk really is and where it needs to go. It also has done the same for my church. This year we almost tripled our giving to foreign missions and for the first time budgeted for over seas short-term mission trips in addition to giving scholarships for them. We also started a outreach program and are contacting almost 200 people a month. This is something we have never done and we are only half way through the book. It has changed the way I do Christianity, the way we do church and it will do the same for you. Incredible! Acts 1:8 In Christ's Love. Pastor Shawn Dobbs.

EKG Will Spark Revival

My own spirit has been revived as I have read Ken Hemphill's book, EKG: The Heartbeat of God. It is obvious that Dr. Hemphill has experienced this in his own life and is eager to share it with others. It will make you a better Christian, a better church member and a better servant of God. I encorage you to let God speak to you through this great presentation of what it means to be in the Kingdom of God. Terry L. Harper Executive Director West Virginia Convention of Southern Baptists

A most in-depth theological analysis.

The Lord Jesus instructed His followers in Matthew 6:32-33 to "Seek first His Kingdom." In understanding Jesus' statement for the times in which we are living, Dr. Ken Hemphill has written perhaps the most in-depth theological analysis by any contemporary author on the Kingdom of God on this earth. Church and denominational leaders all across America need to read and ponder EKG: The Heartbeat of God. If Christians can ever come to terms with the call of Jesus to be Kingdom citizens, spiritual revival will break out in historic proportions.

Gets to the heart of being Kingdom-focused

The "Heartbeat of God" is an enriching source for understanding the values that need to be developed in order to live for Christ. Hemphill offers solid scriptural teaching and avoids the post-modernist self-help "advice" that shortchanges spiritual growth and development. This book is a natural follow up to "Purpose Driven Life." It's easy to read but has depth.

The Premier Book on God's Kingdom Agenda

Hemphill has captured the biblical and practical essence of the subject of God's Kingdom. In his usual readable style, the author outlines the key concepts and makes profound, personal application of these truths. This book has the potential to transform the thinking of church leaders and serious students of the Bible.
