The book of Acts is exciting and a bit intimidating. One cannot help but be thrilled at the miraculous events, the bold witness and the explosive growth that is written about in Acts. But it can be intimidating to read of faith that seems so much deeper and witness that seems so much bolder than what one sees in the life of the average church and Christian today. Rather than intimidation from the book, I want to suggest that we desire imitation of the book. Let’s ask the Lord to help us to learn all we can from this great book of the Bible so that we can discover the same passion and power that we see in the early church. Let’s ask the Lord to make us bold and to fill us with faith and to use us in pow- erful ways. Let’s follow the example of Spirit-filled men like Peter, Paul and Barnabas. Let’s ask the Lord to give our churches life like the church at Antioch or discern- ment like the church at Berea. The Lord gives us the book of Acts as an example of what our lives and churches can be like when we are filled with the Holy Spirit and walking by faith. Let me suggest some things in connection with reading 30 Days to Acts. First, read it with someone else, or better yet, with a group of people. Reading it with a Bible study group or a Sunday School class or others will help you get the most out of it. As you discuss together what God is teaching you, there will be mutual benefit and encouragement. Perhaps your entire church could go through these 30 days together. Second, read the verses for the day before reading the devotional words that follow. Read the verses carefully and prayerfully and allow those words to sink into your soul. Then read the focal verse and the devotional words that follow. Also, read one chapter per day. Perhaps the “30 Days” part of the title already clued you in to that idea. Instead of reading through the entire book, read a chapter each day. This will help you to develop the healthy pattern of a daily devotional time and it will allow the words of each day to sink in a bit. I am praying for you. I am praying that every person who reads 30 Days to Acts will experience the presence and the power of the Holy Spirit in his or her own life. As you read this book, I am praying God will open your heart to what he wants to do in your life and through your life. I’m praying that reading this book will awaken a hunger in your heart for God to work in your life as he did in the lives of the men and women of the early church. Ask him to guide you on this journey and to do something so great in your heart that you know it is from him. I pray God blesses the next 30 days of your life in a special way! One more thing . . . This book is part of a larger series of books that is being developed by Seed Publishing Group; it is called 30 Days to the Bible.

When you look at yourself, what do you see- your failures, inadequacies, shortcomings? God sees far more. God sees in you the person you could be. God sees what you can become, not just what you have been. He sees your potential, your possibilities and your promise. Warriors in Hiding follows the fascinating biblical story of Gideon to show us how God turns weaklings into warriors. Using stories, humor and solid biblical insights, this book examines the surprising people God chooses and uses. If you have ever wanted to be more than you are, to reach the potential God has given you, to become what God wants you to be, then this book is for you! I have no better friend in this world than Doug Munton. And, I know no better leader. His incredible ability to lead people and churches through challenging and almost impossible situations makes him well-qualified to write this book. You will be encouraged that God can find you “in hiding” and make you His warrior, His leader. Don’t miss this great book! –John Avant, author and Pastor of First Baptist Church, West Monroe, LA For all the years that I have known Doug Munton he has been an encourager to me. It is no surprise that his latest book does what Doug has modeled his entire life which is encourage and challenge God's servants to be the leaders the Lord wants them to be. –Dr. Preston L. Nix Director of the Leavell Center for Evangelism and Church Health New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary Dr. Munton is the pastor of the exciting First Baptist Church of O’Fallon, IL. He is a gifted speaker, teacher, author and leader. He and his wife, Vickie, have four children and two sons-in-law.

Got saved? When you repent of your sins and place your faith in Christ, you experience a new beginning. Salvation in Christ is awesome and eternal, but it's only the starting point of your spiritual life. Perhaps, like many Christians, you linger in the shallow end. You're unaware that there is more to be experienced, or unsure how to move beyond your comfort zone and follow the Lord in every area of your life. You splash around, only ankle-deep in your understanding of God and his purposes for your time here on earth. But the Bible says God longs for you to grow spiritually through discipleship. To go beyond the elementary principles of Christianity. To strengthen your understanding of the Lord and his will for you. To plunge deeper and deeper into the faith life. To become immersed in the whole truth. In Immersed: 40 Days to a Deeper Faith, Pastor Doug Munton has developed an ideal Bible study tool for churches and home groups, or for use as a 40-day devotional by individuals who yearn to explore the depths of their faith and to discover the vast riches of Christ. "This is the best tool I have ever seen to unite a church during a forty-day season. I wish I had this book years ago. Your church will change if you use Immersed. And I mean, change in large and meaningful ways. Go deep for forty days, and watch what God does!" -John Avant, senior pastor, First Baptist Church of West Monroe, LA; author, If God Were Real and Authentic Power
