KJV Verses, A Graphics Resource

Here is a graphics resource I wanted to share for KJV verses. I use these as my desktop rotating backgrounds, and have also used them on my facebook group: Post a Bible Verse for the Day. You have to be careful, as some of the real older graphics are not KJV. Here are a few examples:

Ministry127 and Graphics

I have mentioned Ministry127 here a few times, and they are a great resource to share. One of the things I like best about Lancaster, is that they freely share their online resources (a belief I share). They allow you to repost and use almost everything you find at Ministry127. If you are not familiar with it, it is a ministry of helps from Lancaster Baptist Church (West Coast Baptist College), with Pastor Paul Chappell.

An area of Ministry127.com I appreciate is their graphics work section. They provide these images for powerpoints, blogs, pictures for your church bulletin - really anywhere you want to use them. I have even used them as backgrounds for verses for my facebook page, and I have seen a number of tracts designed using them. To get right to the graphics, click here: ministry127.com/resources/slides. Here are some recent examples:



One nice feature, is that they also upload blank graphics, so you can customize with your own text.

His Robes For Mine - New Song of the Month


Check out this man's video of his daughters singing this new hymn. The hymn was written by a student at BJU, who makes the sheet music (as well as a second ending with key change) available at no cost at http://www.churchworksmedia.com/hymns/his-robes-for-mine-text/


His robes for mine: O wonderful exchange!
Clothed in my sin, Christ suffered ‘neath God’s rage.
Draped in His righteousness, I’m justified.
In Christ I live, for in my place He died.
Chorus:  
I cling to Christ, and marvel at the cost:
Jesus forsaken, God estranged from God.
Bought by such love, my life is not my own.
My praise-my all-shall be for Christ alone.
His robes for mine: what cause have I for dread?
God’s daunting Law Christ mastered in my stead.
Faultless I stand with righteous works not mine,
Saved by my Lord’s vicarious death and life.
His robes for mine: God’s justice is appeased.
Jesus is crushed, and thus the Father’s pleased.
Christ drank God’s wrath on sin, then cried “‘Tis done!”
Sin’s wage is paid; propitiation won.
His robes for mine: such anguish none can know.
Christ, God’s beloved, condemned as though His foe.
He, as though I, accursed and left alone;
I, as though He, embraced and welcomed home!

Gospel of John: Free or Low Cost

If you have a serious need for KJV booklets containing the Gospel of John, or know someone with this need (ie: children with parents unwilling or unable to buy them), the Pocket Testament League is a resource where you can order them as needed. Here is the website: http://www.ptl.org

Sometimes my husband and I purchase full-sized Bibles for the bus kids in our class, but often the need exceeds our limited finances (we spend hundreds of dollars on our class annually). If he is doing a series of lessons in the book of John, this is a good way to the the Bible into needy little hands vs. sending them away empty-handed.

What is "The Cloud"?

I came across a great YouTube on "the cloud". I have heard a lot about it lately, and went looking for info, and this you tuber has a lot of good info on his many videos. I can see how this could be beneficial in a lot of ways ie: my files at church and my files at home, so I thot I'd share it here for anyone who cares.



On a side note, at the Spiritual Leadership Conference in Lancaster, CA, they released a new app for the iPhone or Android. It's a app for soulwinning contacts! It looks really nice, and they have been testing it for a year. They just got it approved at iTunes, and you can get it there for 99 cents. It's called "Outreach", and here is a link that tells more about it: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/outreach/id447923900?mt=8 "Once installed you can track the progress of each of your soulwinning prospects— you can quickly view a map to their home, make a phone call, and record each contact and spiritual decision. You can also view and organize your prospects into custom lists."

I don't have either phone yet :( but it anyone has used it, please post on it! I'd love to hear about how it works and what it can do!

New Webmaster Resource

For years I have used RefTagger (there has been a link to it on the sidebar under "Free Resources") which is a line of script you add to your website or blog that pops up a verse for every reference you type.

Examples:

Jn. 3:16

John 3:16-18

John 3:16, 18

Well, today I found out about a similar free service from AV1611.com called VerseClick! The difference is, the AV1611 site only links to the KJV. It's a very easy install (one line of code) and the directions are simple to follow. If you want to try it out, go to their website at http://av1611.com/verseclick - I will be installing it on all my blogs next week.

Four Weeks of Children's Church - ebook Giveaway

I am hosting a giveaway on my blog for two ebooks, Four Weeks of Children's Church. These books are written by a Fundamental Baptist and are an excellent resource for those serving in children's ministries. Please stop by my blog to check it out.



Blogging Resources

I'm adding a Bible hyperlinking application to this blog. It's pretty cool, actually. It's also free, if you are interested in adding it to your blog. What it does, is take a verse reference, and link it to the verse in the Bible; when you mouse over the reference, the verse pops up.

Testing area:

John 3:16

John 3:16-18, 22, 25

Psalm 1:1

Ps. 1:1

Note: Bible references are case sensitive, so john 3:16 would not be tagged, nor would GEN 1:1.

The application can be found HERE; you just add it like any other Blogger gadget, and it's just as easy to remove. :)
