Book excerpt: "I had the fairy tale marriage, a caring father to my children, a successful business, a beautiful new home on a golf course and a wonderful loving extended family. Then came the knock on my door, that cold January morning, delivering news that would change my life forever."Abandoned But Not Crushed describes a breathless account of a young mother's struggle to recover from the devastating news of her husband's suicide, while continuing to care for her three young children. Meanwhile, discoveries of other betrayals and an ensuing lawsuit from her husband's dealings thrust her into a four-year battle in the courts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Gospel-Rich, Reproducible Model for Making Disciples as Jesus Intended Biblical discipleship emphasizes encouragement, repentance, and spiritual growth—essential parts of the Christian life. However, well-meaning believers often struggle to follow Jesus, unaware their views are too legalistic, licentious, or individualistic. How can churches and Christians develop a healthy, successful path to disciple-making? In this second edition of Gospel-Centered Discipleship, Jonathan Dodson presents an effective, Spirit-led model for sanctification. Reminding readers that real discipleship is imperfect yet transformational, Dodson encourages Christians to engage more authentically with others as they grow in faith. Drawing from his own failures and successes while following Jesus, Dodson defines discipleship, describes the heart of a disciple, and gives practical guidance for mentor and peer-based discipleship as Jesus intended. Revised and Expanded: Includes three new chapters and new illustrations Applicable: Shows how discipleship can be practical and gospel-centered Theological: Addresses the Holy Spirit's involvement in discipleship Foreword by Matt Chandler: Author of The Explicit Gospel

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.

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.

Download or read book Prince of Voodoo written by Heather Rodin and published by Word Alive Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That night, for the first time in five years, the beautiful spirit woman came to visit, floating through the thick cement wall without making a sound. He had not seen her since the day he decided to follow Jesus, leaving voodoo behind, and had almost forgotten about her. She appeared the same, but surrounded by darkness he had not noticed before. Reaching his bed she knelt at his side weeping bitterly. “Why are you doing this to me?” she sobbed. “Don’t leave me, Joisaint.” “You must go and never come back,” the boy spoke firmly. “I belong to Jesus now.” “If you obey me, I will make you very rich and powerful.” Her breath tickled his ear and he pulled away. He wanted to be rich. He wanted to be powerful. Softly filtering through the darkness came the still small voice of God, reminding him he was loved. The two voices battled in his head throughout the night until, in the early morning light, he lay limp and exhausted. It was time to make a decision.

Download or read book The Impact of Bodily Experience on Paul s Resurrection Theology written by Kai-Hsuan Chang and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kai-Hsuan Chang engages with the longstanding scholarly debate concerning the development of Paul's resurrection theology, by investigating the correlation between his bodily experiences and his diverse articulations about resurrection. Drawing on insights from cognitive linguistics, Chang considers Paul's ideas about resurrection as fundamentally grounded in recurrent patterns of bodily experience, arguing that such experience of some religious activities in Paul's time-death rites, spirit possession, and baptism-contributed to the formation and development of his resurrection theology. Chang demonstrates that developments in Paul's ideas about “bodily transformation at resurrection” - reflected in 1 Corinthians 15 - resulted from a change in the experiential patterns on which his new idea is constructed, rather than “transformation during heavenly ascent” as seen in Jewish traditions of resurrection. He thus applies cognitive linguistic tools to two considerations; first, whether Paul had contextual reasons to generate his innovation in 1 Corinthians 15, and second, whether Paul's innovation recurred or had continual effects in Christian groups. In so doing, Chang shows that Paul's innovation directly addressed a contextual issue of death rites in Corinth and exerted a continuing effect on Paul's later ideas of transformation, spirit possession, and baptism.
