'RATIONS'   book

We want to stay close to Jesus. For some of us, that requires GETTING close, first. For all of us, it demands a daily dedication to God, time alone with Him in prayer and with the Scriptures.
In The Salvation Army we call this essential discipline RATIONS. Just as a military soldier gets daily nutritional intake of food and drink to fuel his/her military efforts for king and country, a salvation soldier needs daily spiritual intake of PRAYER and the WORD to fuel his/her spiritual efforts for the Lord.

Commissioner Jim Knaggs wrote a provocative blog asking several questions around the idea that it might be time to reinvent the movement of The Salvation Army.  Noland and Court applied Alan Hirsch's missional DNA components to each of Knaggs's questions and generated some possible futures for the Army.  The result is REINVENTING THE MOVEMENT: What if Knaggs is right?  General Paul Rader contributes the insightful foreword to this challenging book.

Gospel Tract - "How to Find God"
by General William Booth  >view tract<
(this old gospel tract, has been re-formatted by Jonathan Evans for use as an evangelism tool.)

One of the reasons converts in the early Army experienced miraculous change in their lives is that they dealt with sin before salvation.  The popular tract that the Army used in those days is called HOW TO FIND GOD. It hammers sin.
Too often these days our converts are stuck in Romans 7 when they should be enjoying a holiness experience. If we are faithful in walking sinners through these steps we can avoid a lot of the issues that arise later.
We encourage you to print this tract off, make heaps of copies, and use it with your friends. Although it seems mechanical it is beneficial and could save you hours of deliverance sessions and your convert years of a failing Christian experience.
