Download or read book 40 Days of Grace written by Rich Miller and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2013-06-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two fundamentally different approaches to living life in relation to God. The first approach is to jump up and down, trying to impress Him. The second is to relate to Him on the basis of grace. Though the first approach makes sense at first glance (since it is the way we get noticed), it comes with a whole load of baggage: guilt, shame, fear, pride. The way of grace is more subtle but is the way God actually has chosen to work. Grace is like breathing clean air. When you are surrounded by grace you flourish. Graceless living is like breathing carbon monoxide. You may not even realize it is killing you spiritually until it is too late. These reflections are easy to read, and often entertaining. But they are full of wisdom ' and will show you how to live in the grace of Christ, day by day.

Download or read book The 40 Day Experiment Achieving Intimacy with God written by Barbara Colacchia and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one is ever so far gone into a life of sin that God cannot redeem them. Likewise, no one is ever so intimate with God that there isn't room for more intimacy. There is always more! Communion and union with Christ is what we were born for, yet we convince ourselves that we can only get to a certain level of intimacy and that's it. These higher levels of communion with God are set aside for other people, you know those real pious ones or just pastors or just...That is the lie we believe. We as believers are disciples of Jesus. As disciples, we are to imitate Jesus. Jesus demonstrated what it looked like as a man to walk in constant communion with the Father. This means that it is available to us, all of us, no matter who you are. God wants to draw near to us, but we need to do our part and draw near to Him. This book demonstrates how faithful God is. Intimacy with God, deep intimacy, is available to everyone. At first, it may seem difficult or even impossible, but the truth is that it is a tactic of the enemy to convince us that we cannot have what God died to give us; that is relationship and constant communion and union with Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and God the Father. It is all available to us. It is a treasure that has been given to us through salvation that is to be fully utilized in this lifetime. The intent of this book is to bring many into the kingdom as well as leading those that are already in Christ into a deeper, more meaningful, intimate relationship with Christ. This book documents a forty-day journey to achieving intimacy with God, taking every thought captive and submitting to God. It has been to date the most powerful forty days of my life. The outcome of this experiment has changed my life and it will change yours too. If you have been seeking a more intimate relationship with the God head or if you have been thinking of committing your life to Christ but are just not sure, then this is the book for you.

Book excerpt: It May Not Be a Coincidence That This Book Has Crossed Your Path... In Peace with God Dr. Billy Graham asks God to help this book “find its way into the hands and hearts of a lost, confused, and searching world . . . men, women, and young people everywhere [who] thirst for peace with God.” In spite of a life drenched with responsibilities and rewards, are you thirsting? Searching for some nameless thing that is more important than anything in life? You are not alone. All mankind is seeking the answer to the confusion, the moral sickness, the spiritual emptiness that oppresses the world. All humanity is crying out for guidance, for comfort . . .for peace. Dr. Graham shares God’s gentle, reassuring promise of spiritual calm—of authentic personal peace—amidst a personal life wracked with too much stress, too many burdens, too great a heartache. “I know men who would write a check for a million dollars if they could find peace,” writes Dr. Graham. “Millions are searching for it. But we Christians have found it! It is ours now and forever. We have found the secret of life! . . .When your spouse dies or your children get sick or you lose your job, you can have a peace that you don’t understand. You may have tears at a graveside, but you can have an abiding peace, a quietness. “God’s peace can be in your heart—right now . . .Whatever the circumstances, whatever the call, whatever the duty, whatever the price, whatever the sacrifice—His strength will be your strength in your hour of need. “It’s all yours, and it’s free. You don’t have to work for it . . . . Do not put it off.”

Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church.

Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
