Meet Dr. James Stone |
Dr. James Stone is the founder and President of Christian
Ministries, Inc., a ministry for personal, family, and church
growth. He travels extensively across America and several foreign
countries sharing his experiences with Jesus.
His 40 year career in ministry has included individual counseling, family
counseling, pastor of
several churches, Bible college and seminary professorships, leader of revivals,
Christian grow seminars, and church growth specialist.
He has written over twenty books
with some of his latest titles being "Salvation: A Biblical Model for
Christian Counseling" (1989), "The Grace of God" (1990), and
"Journey
to Jesus" (2000).
He, also, holds four post-graduate degrees (Doctor of
Ministry, Fuller Theological Seminary, with additional graduate work at Tulsa
University, College of William and Mary, Union Theological Seminary, and the
Church of God School of Theology).
With thirty-six years in Christian academics and leadership roles, Dr. Stone has spent most of his
life in the study of Christianity. However, he states that what is
contained in this website and his recent book, "Journey to Jesus", did not
come out of books or study.
The life-changing
principles of grace were, in his words, "birthed in his heart" as he
encountered Jesus in every day living. Amazingly, in the past few years
the Lord moved him from the world of academia and leadership roles to a small network of home meetings
in the United States, Canada and Caraçao. He encountered Jesus through
these connections and life circumstances. He discovered Jesus is the
answer to life's problems.
As he shared the writings of Paul with others, the revelation of
Jesus Christ became more and more clear to him. Jesus came into
focus not as the object of his worship, his devotion, or his piety but rather as
the heart-beat and breath of life itself. Dr. Stone has come to realize
that Jesus Christ is the inherent fiber of all existence: "for of him, and
through him, and to him, are all things."
A Personal Note from James
In all of my articles, audio tapes, videos and books, I share the simple truth that Jesus is breaking
through to me at the moment. In that sharing, I pray that in some way God can break through
to those who hear the same truth. I know that if He does . . . it will not be
because I have taught anyone anything.
What "I" teach will have absolutely no lasting value to you. It cannot produce the life
that you so desperately crave. Only by hearing Jesus yourself can you experience the life you desire. Truth comes only to those who
hear Jesus themselves.
It has become very simple for me. Every man must hear Jesus and be
taught by Jesus if he wants to learn of Jesus. Perhaps, Paul said it as
well as it can be said:
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For
who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counselor?
Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him
again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom
be glory for ever. Amen. (Rom. 11:33-36)
The revelation of Jesus Christ comes 100% from
Jesus revealing Himself to you.
All I can do is share what Jesus is revealing in my life. As I share, my heart’s desire and
prayer for you is that you, too, can hear Jesus in what is being shared.
