Lance Lambert

How is the Bible still as applicable in the 21st century as it was when it was first penned? How did so many authors, with different backgrounds and over thousands of years, write something so perfectly fitting with one another? Lance Lambert breaks down these, and many other questions in this first volume of his series teaching through the Bible. He lays a firm foundation for going on to study the Word of the living God. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13

"Gott aber sei Dank, der uns den Sieg gibt durch unsern Herrn Jesus Christus " (1. Korinther 15, 57)Es gibt f r die erl ste, aus Gott geborene und durch den Heiligen Geist immer wieder mit Kraft ausgestattete Gemeinde der Endzeit nichts Lebensnotwendigeres oder strategisch Bedeutsameres als zu lernen, was es hei t den guten Kampf zu k mpfen. Hier scheint uns besonders f r die Gemeinde Jesu im deutschsprachigen Raum eine gro e Dringlichkeit zu bestehen.M ge der Herr dieses Buch gebrauchen, um uns unsere Berufung bewusst zu machen, t chtige Soldaten Jesu, des Messias, zu werden und den guten Kampf des Glaubens zu k mpfen.Das vorliegende Buch enth lt einige ausgew hlte, uns sehr hilfreich erscheinende Botschaften von Lance Lambert, die zu unterschiedlichen Zeitpunkten an verschiedenen Orten der Welt zum Thema geistliche Kampff hrung gegeben wurden.

In diesem Buch greift Lance Lambert auf vielf ltige Erfahrungen zur ck, die er in seinem Leben als Beter und F rbitter machen konnte. Als 13 J hriger war er der j ngste Teilnehmer einer Gebetsgruppe, als junger Mann erlebte er in einer kleinen Gruppe, wie der Herr nach jahrelangem kontinuierlichen Gebet einen geistlichen Durchbruch in ihrer Region und dar ber hinaus schenkte. Die enge Gemeinschaft mit dem Herrn und mit Geschwistern im Gebet ist bis heute ein zentraler Ausdruck seines geistlichen Lebens.Die vielf ltigen Erfahrungen und Einblicke, die schwierigen und auch humorvollen Erlebnisse, die der Herr ihm in den nun fast 70 Jahren als Beter geschenkt hat, machen dieses Buch zu einem kostbaren Schatz f r jeden, der enge Gemeinschaft mit dem sucht, der selber der gr te F rbitter ist: "Daher kann er auch bis aufs u erste die retten, welche durch ihn zu Gott kommen, da er immerdar lebt, um in F rbitte f r sie einzutreten " (Hebr 7,25)

"If Any Man Would Follow Me...""If any man come after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me." These words, spoken by the Lord Jesus without any preamble are the very heart of discipleship. Here we have the heart of what it is to be a child of God. This is not just something to do with deeper life, this lies at the center of the gospel.

In "Be Ye Ready," you will find Lance shares his burden on being prepared for the return of the Lord. May we be His bride ready for the wedding feast to come.In I Chronicles 12:32 the Bible says of the sons of Issachar that they were ..". men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do." May the Lord have a people today who understand the days in which we are living and are being prepared to meet the Bridegroom--the Lord Jesus.

Little in our lives today is more important and more needed than personal spiritual growth. I am convinced that Lance Lambert's discernment (and humor) in this account of God's dealings with Jacob are worth a thousand sermons. Of all his books and Bible teachings, I regard this as the apex, the spearhead, the most important of all else that Lance has shared in his worldwide teaching ministry. - Ken Burnett When God deals with us it is often in deeply mystifying ways. There is no greater example of how God shapes a person than through the remarkable story of Jacob. Jacob I Have Loved is far more than a mere biblical overview of the story of Jacob. It is an outstanding illustration of God's desire to utterly transform our fallen inner nature. Despite a twisted, deceiving, and sinful heart, Jacob nonetheless inherited God's richest blessings and became one of the patriarchs of our faith. Herein lies one of the Bible's great mysteries. The amazing truth is that Jacob's name has not been lost in the debris of human history, nor has it been forgotten, as have so many other names. Incredibly, it is forever linked with God. His story is an integral part of the history of divine redemption. This book is about the power of God to transform a human life. Jacob's story is our story.

Growing up in Tacoma, WA, "The City of Destiny," provided author Lance Lambert with the opportunity to grow from a little guy that thought the night-time darkness was eaten by magic bugs, to a guy that, on the night of his high school graduation, learned that he was not as talented as he thought. In the years between he was kissed by a wealthy butcher's daughter, forcefully extracted from a train, singled out by a president, helped to identify foreign spies, and found out that nudity and peanut butter are not necessarily a good combination. His regrets include shoplifting at the local five & dime, winning a contest by deception, and expressing his opinion about his Cub Scout troupe's den mother. Triumphs include a short career as a pirate, and the successful use of a motor scooter to win the hearts and hands of the cutest girls in school. Lance Lambert's latest book will take readers back to a time when a typical day included everything from throwing dirt balls at friends to helping bring law and order to the neighborhood. "Lance's stories are achingly truthful, often laugh-out-loud funny, and generous in spirit... his quick wit and sense of the absurd had me wiping away tears of laughter... he brings universal recollections into the light of warm affection so we can take part in a shared appreciation for the ridiculousness and precariousness of life." M.J. McDermott, Author, Reporter, KCPQ News - Seattle

Every "car guy" has stories that elicit laughter, tears and admission of some bad choices. Lance Lambert's "Fenders, Fins & Friends: Confessions of a Car Guy" includes tales of riding in a 1939 ford as the steering wheel was removed and handed to him. Installing a siren in a 1955 Ford proved to be a bad decision. Putting five friends as far back as possible in a rock band's van resulted in wheels stands and applause from admiring fans. Sitting in a 1949 Chevrolet while surrounded by five police cars and numerous guns pointed his direction caused some concern. "Fenders, Fins & Friends: Confessions of a Car Guy" reveals all that is good about the world of old cars and why being a Car Guy is the best way to enjoy life. "...The history of our automobile traditions is safe in your hands." Lee Iacocca, Automotive Industry Icon "Lance's stories are a joyride to simpler times when unbridled enthusiasm and unchallenged optimism were all it took for car crazy young men to tackle any dream, scheme or machine." Bruce Caldwell, Editor Emeritus, Hot Rod Magazine "Lance's writings remind us of the sizzle that we were, or maybe could have been or wanted to be; his writings take us back to presumably simpler times of dreamy days, giving us peepholes back to the olden days. A great book from back in the day." Don Weberg, Editor & Publisher, Garage Style Magazine "Read this and you will gain insight into a down-to-earth soul, with a big heart, and an entertaining way of seeing the world." Theresa Poalucci, Publisher, Journal Newspapers "Lance's humorous storytelling style makes you feel like you are sitting in the front seat with him as he drives you through his amazing 'car guy' life." Sandy Scott, Director of Operations, Petersen Automotive Museum "Lance Lambert is the Garrison Keillor of car stories. His nostalgic and chuckle worthy stories always put a smile on my face." M.J. McDermott, KCPQ Television Reporter "Lance is an amicable asset to the car world - at once a wealth of knowledge and history, an icon of automotive TV programming and a friendly ambassador to the industry for everyone from experienced gearheads to neophyte spectators. It is easy to see that Lance loves cars, and car people love Lance." Heidi Van Horne, Automotive Reporter, Houston Chronicle "...As a prolific writer, emcee and TV host, Lance is everybody's 'in the know' and 'go to' car guy when they want the inside scoop. His stories are real and he has made it a point to document his adventures at every turn. His book is a 'must read' ." David Dickinson, Creator & Editor, "The Old Car Nut Book" "This book is a 'must read' for all car lovers " John D'Agostino, Celebrity Kustoms "Compelling 'FENDERS, FINS & FRIENDS: Confessions of a car Guy' provides a vivid and humorous look at 60 years of the memories of a true vintage vehicle legend. The vignettes are always evocative. A great read " Kathleen Fullerton Bernhard, Ph.D., author of "The Invisible Woman"
